Real Kiwi Biker Movie?

[Paul in NZ]

I suspect "The One" wants to do a clone of the skinny dudes on big boofy sports bikes doin' dumb shit in front of a shakey hand held camera and smearing themselves all over the tarmac and runing their $5,000 tattoos kind stuf... Lets face it, we can download shit loads of that stuff that better (ie dumber) than anything we could do...

I'd propose something way cooler....

Similar format to 'On Any Sunday'. Short clips of the who spectrum of the sport from Speedway solos to Touring the South Island.... Adventure rides to top level MX! Oh hell... Lets even throw in 'The One' doing stunts and runnin' from the law...

Kids on mini MX, old dudes classic racing, trials, rally goers, brass Monkey etc etc.

All I need is you all to give me your time, your bikes and $100,000 each and I reckon I'll be sweet.

Cheers

(no no, don't thank me, it's my pleasure)

I think a movie of that sort of thing would be cool to watch. Also some track day events on film would be fun as well!!! Don't know about the $100,000 though

[Two Smoker]

Ill be keen to take a camera on my bike around Taupo if you want.... and i can get my Uncle to take a camera onboard his 1970's TZ350 for your classic racing

[DEATH_INC.]

Yeh,I think it'd be cool to see a kiwi remake of the old classic.

[Wenier]

could b fun but 100Gs is well outa the question. Some awesome track footage would b great.

[kneescraper]

Two Smoker it would be sweet to get some track footage and see some NZders going hard on their bikes!!!

[Kwaka-Kid]

sounds wicked as to me! im keen to help in any way i can.

have some antiques lying around here too.

[FROSTY:Me]

actually what would be really cool would be a "staged" race with KK,HooN,TS
Mitch etc in it. I'm thinking we could do it at 3/4 race pace and pull the bikes in real tight and have some swapping of positions and maybee a bit of argey bargey. I could have Mella yella as the camera bike

[Motu]

Yeah,a movie like On Any Sunday,show the huge variety of bikes ridden and what they do with them would be great - some of the unique New Zealand stuff...speedway sidecars,these guys could have their own reality show,it's just outrageous,beach racing...this has been going on since the year dot,some fantastic beach specials have been made over the years - Forrest Carden's (sp?) 1000cc JAP V twin in the featherbed got down to bed rock on the turns,an awesome sight,the classic races bring out the shed engineers with home built wonders....280 riders were on the start line of the Tarawera 100...there's a shit load of stuff going on out there....ok...we need someone to record it for us...?????.....oh,who gives a fuck,it's just some guys riding bikes.

I've got onboard video of a mate lapping Taupo on his TZ500H. Very cool, every time the tacho hits 7000 in the first three gears the track disappears. Also got some awesome onboard video of a National champ grade rider doing laps of the Blenheim kart track. Some with the camera forward and some pointing back.

You can have my bike (keeps falling apart) got a spare K4 gixxer hanging around?
