I usually watch old biker movies when it gets too cold to ride. Ran across this while searching for biker chick gang movies. Has some cool looking bikes in it and the main character rides a Guzzi. It's not a mainstream movie and the actors aren't pros. I'll probably order it just for the motorcycle scenes.

After watching the preview, I can see it'll be funny, at least. If you can pick up a green framed Guzzi 1000s as cheaply as the one they showed when the guy said "you just spent $4000 on a motorcycle?", snatch it up as fast as you can. They go for more like $10k now. I liked the end of the preview, when the chicks looked longingly at each other and it ended. :lol:

The Guzzi is the directors personal bike. Neat story about him buying it. It's nice to see a movie with bikes like we like instead of choppers and sport bikes. Good to know the guzzi is a 10 grand bike. Maybe I'll find one some day. :thumbup:

Price wise, they're like the H2 of Guzzis. They typically go for $10k and up if they're in nice shape.

That's a good looking bike Jim. The green frame looks pretty cool also. Funny how bikes no one wants back in the day always seem to become valuable in the future. They still need to look good and that Guzzi really does. Thanks for the link. :D

Brilliant; never thought to search or what is really important in life...

Jim C, you may or may not like these type of movies but here's a link to few. Some of these I've watched, some I need too. Most of them were drive in movies, they are so bad but fun to watch at the same time.

Love those old movie posters! Back then, that was their one chance to sell and reel you in.

Thanks for that link Buddy- I'll have to reference to see if any are on Netflix.

I like the old movie posters too Evans. The movies usually didn't live up to the poster hype but we got sucked in anyway. :lol: What's really funny is that in a lot of these gang movies they rode Japanese bikes instead of Harley's.
