    that was gonna be my point.
    Frankly I was ashamed that I watched the whole movie. I'm surprised that anyone could actually rate the movie, specially anyone who knows anything about bikes, physics or what makes a good movie, biker boy's wasn't much better but it wasn't as bad as Torque. The people who made that or had anything to do with it, should focus their time on new episodes of Barney.

    Despite what the critics in here say, I quite enjoyed the movie. Yep it was a load of baloney but most movies are these days!

    Biker boys/Torque are up their with the worst movies ever made. They give the general public a twisted fucked up view of biking with sub standard plots and ridiculous special effects that seem to replace far too much dialog.
    The same way that Fast & the F...Gay, did for cars.
    All shit, I'd never pay to see any of em, hence why I downloaded Torque and promptly realised i'd wasted my bandwidth.
    Incidentally why would you call a bike movie "Torque"? Perhaps a topfuel dragster or tractor pulling movie, but bikes aren't exactly known for mountains of it, no matter how modified, especially compared to cars.....

    but the splitting is more like doing queen st at 5pm at 200kph..ya know...the Y2k scene...
    lane splitting aint that hard, if its in a reasonably straight line

    i probably should do the same,in all his movies the actors have huge ego's, everything to prove, which is always settled by racing or fights, and there are always a endless supply of skanky ho's ready to be picked up and show cleavage wherever possible...

    Some say it gives the general public a bad view of biking. Let me make this clear, no member of the general (meaning in this context 'non-motorcyclists') public know of these movies let alone saw them.

    And if it was not for KB I wouldn't have heard of most movies of that ilk.

    H-D and the Marlboro Man was a nice light-hearted bike movie that's not been mentioned yet (well not on the last page which is the only one iI've looked at.)

    right on, that was a good movie...
    in torque the lead "bad guy" rides a yamaha roadstar warrior...in one part they call it a Hog!
    and it chases the Y2k down city streets at 200+ kph with ape hangers!
    he musta had the upper body strength of a Gorrilla!
