Fonda was too skinny, Hopper was a dick, The Hippie tells me I remind him of one of the guys in 'Stone', which is good, but the movie gets too much wrong. outlaws on Kwakas?!?
Lee Marvin in the Wild One was close, but my vote goes to William Smith.

Not really a biker, but Steve McQueen as Captain Hilts in the great escape

This guy looks pretty good on a bike,sometimes he did a bit of acting too - no one comes close,there is only one actor/biker....Steve McQueen!

No, Kawasaki Z1A and Z1B.
In Stone the undercover cop has to sell his Norton and buy a Kawasaki 900 so he 'fits in' with the patched up outlaws.
Some great stunts and Rebecca Gilling nude was worth the admission, it is a cult and the viet vets even used the logo for their patch - but 'get it right'.

Legend! - but not a 'Biker' in the sense I meant - Motorcyclist, racer and extrememly cool dude, but I'm looking for 'intimidating', scary, baaad mofo, gothica.

Well I have to say it wasnt so much about the rider but the movie...

"Easy Rider" did it for me way back when.....
and maybe it was the era... they were rebels in their own right...

It was the bikes for me... I just

those bikes in "Easy Rider".
I just

the cruiser's..............

My vote goes for Steve McQueen too.

Second place would go to Angelina Jolie. She's hot, she loves to ride, what more could you ask?

**Indiana_Jones** · 25th June 2005, 09:24

The bad guy from "torque" looks like a tough biker

-Indy

**crazylittleshit** · 25th June 2005, 09:27

torque you hippys.
(BEST MOVIE EVER)

**Motu** · 25th June 2005, 09:31

Oh,a ''pretend'' biker...not a real one huh? OK,I'll go with Lee Marvin too,he looked a mean fucker in whatever he did,and every bad arse biker from The Wild One on used him as their model,not that other guy.Lee Marvin learnt to ride for the movie,then got into it,he used to desert race with Steve McQueen I think.Best compromise.
