Okay so its not a Buell, put it does mentions offering to the "gods of speed" Just saw it last night, great flick, not quite as bike-centric as I would've preferred, but still a great flick. I think it will do well with riders and non-riders. The main story line is about pursuing your dream in the face challenges and adversity, the motorcycle is just the vehicle that gets him there I'll have to wait till one of you land-speed types sees it to discuss the on bike speed scenes. If the movie did any justice to the real thing, I can understand why you're hooked. And just wondering was Rollie Free a cigar chomping regular at Bonneville after his racing days? | ||

Thanks for the review Matt. Didn't realize it was due for release yet. The previews make it look like a great flick. Looking forward to seeing it. | ||

Whodom, Yeah, it appears the film is only out in Australia (by the website anyways). I live near Kodak's headquarters in Rochester, NY. They do a series of film festivals up here. We got lucky, Dianne Ladd received an award and she happens to be in this movie, so it was the last film shown. It was pretty cool to se to Norton Commandos, a honda hawk, my X1 and a Vstrom in at a movie in NY in November. I'll go see it again to the regular theaters. great movie to take a kid to. | ||

Mbsween, i live and work overseas but when im home i now hang my hat in fairport, what do you think of the cyclestop? my in person impression isnt very high but maybe im wrong, could still have the Los Angeles smell on me even though ive been gone for a couple of years. any way i want to get a Buell like now before i get home for vacation in Dec and not having much luck. not only in finding the bike but getting them to talk about the custom work i want done. any suggestions. | ||

Chiefiron, I sent you a couple PMs regarding my experience with the Cycle Stop. Its not a bad place to buy a bike, but I think it ends there. Again, just my 0.02, hit up Aesquire, he's more i touch with them Look in the Sponsor section, those are the dealers that get "Buell". Dave Steuve from appleton has a promotion going now and he'll outfit a bike the way you'd like, not to mention correctly setup suspension wise. Checkout our local http://bike-night.com and feel free to stop over when you're back in Roc-cha-cha | ||

I just watched it on Air New Zealand. The first hour of it anyway, then they wanted to land the airplane and pulled my plug. Pretty cool movie.  | ||

An Air New Zealand exclusive! In the opening trailer Anthony Hopkins says this was the most fun he ever had making a movie. He's got Salt fever. |
