They had problems with their mohawks getting caught in the draft from Max's XB....plus they had to contend with the evil handling of those big zee one thousands.

you guys know erik's first bike was the rw750, rw stands for road warrior.
does anybody know what the other model designators mean if anything? s1, s2, s3, m2, x1, p3?

If you look at my bike, you'll see the Buell TC2 designation on the timing cover, which stands for "Toecutter"....

the funny thing is the "super charger" on that car is just bolted on to the hood on the underside. it wasn't really hooked up to anything other than a battery to make the thing spin.

and the turn on switch was a red pull lever on his stick shift.

i've been a fan of these movies for a long time, can't tell how many times i saw those movies. i even found a place online once that sold the Dinky D dog food that he eats. let me just say it tastes horible!
