Good bike movie?

[MackeyStingray]

Need to know what's a good bike movie to rent. I've watched Full Throttle, an HK flick about street racing. 1st 1 was about bikes only. 2nd 1 had bikes in the beginning and mostly ricers. 3rd 1, didn't bother to see.

I have a copy of it on VCD. 2 discs. Anyone want a copy just let me know and I'll bring it to the next meet if I can make it. It has english subtitles so don't worry if you don't understand a lick of Cantonese.

No clue. I take it you're not talking about FTP, Judgment Day or anything like that?

I've never seen it :blush but "On any Sunday" gets good reviews.

I haven't seen that one since high school - hell, I completely forgot about it. Can you summarize / review?

OK here it goes...

There are these guys that are "special friends" (if you know what I mean) society frowns upon them but they don't care. And there is this 1 girl that likes one of the guys but he just wants to be friends. but the guys just want to surf, smoke crack, and ride bikes all day long. So the spurned girl takes a remington 700 .308 rifle and climbs to the top the the local book depository to take out her anger on the ugly world. This is when thre best S.W.A.T. team in movie history ( Bruce Willis, Sly Stalone, Mel Gibson, Steven Segal) fast rope from a Huey to the top of the building and take her out before she can shoot anyone. THE END

Can i get a copy of both part one and part two? Ill reimburse you for the discs.

Part two is pretty cool if you are like me and enjoy both bikes and rice rockets. The black car in the second movie is actually the Lancer Evolution 4, which is a kick ass car in asian and europe. It was interesting that they pitted two of the baddest rally based prouction cars in that movie..the Lancer and the Wrx St-i. Too bad the only good bike racing part was at the beginning.

Hey Sting, if you can do it soon id like to come over and pick it up from you since im in oakland and not that far away. Saves you a trip and saves me from having to wait till the next meet hehe

It'll work if your DVD player can play MPEG1 vids. Most "modern" DVD set top players will play VCDs. Meaning it wasn't made when DVDs 1st hit the market a few yrs. ago. If you have a computer w/ a CDROM you can play it too.

Ken:
I only have part1 on VCD. Part2 I watched at my cousin's house. I love the LanEvo and the STi. Sick, sick cars! Maybe now we'll finally get what we've been missing from Japan w/the Evo coming fall this yr. Hopefully the STi (not the detuned WRX) will make it here if the Evo does well. looks like "ricer rockets" are making a comeback. Hey, maybe Ford will even produce the Cosworth here and not just have those in Europe.

Can't make copies for a while since I just ran out of blank CDRs. I'll definitely have a copy or 2 by the next meet though.

BTW, if any of you have seen my avatar on SBN, that is a screencap from Full Throttle.

dude, dont even think about the lancer being competetive with the WRx . Those morons at mitsubishi didnt even put in a Dual OverHead Cam motor. its a stinking SOHC motor with 130hp to the crank...thats like 100hp to the wheel.. doesnt include any traction control...AWD? HA! keep dreaming..im so disappointed. In the battle between subaru and mitsubishi, my loyaty goes to the lancer but damn did they let me down. Oh well keep wishing and saving i suppose. Oh and as for the Cosworth..its never going to happen since Cosworth is a private company that build escort rally cars exclusively for the european market. the chances of them bringing those cars here is like having Mclaren F1's roaming the street and Nsr500's being street legal in asian spec..Just too costly to make them fall within the stupid tree hugging enviromentally endorsed laws, and crash testing...too damn bad for us...

 

[MackeyStingray]

already seen a few "lancers" out on the street already. sad sad sights. i'm talking about the real deal Evolution 7s coming out in the fall of 02! should be sweet but out of most "ricer's" price range as w/ most of the "affordable" sport imports when they're new.

 

[KXP]

so MSting, when do i get my movies?? hehe

By the way i chickened out on getting the wisdom teeth pulled..so im still good to ride. But i dunno how much longer i can hold out..my supply of asprin is running low hahaha

 

[Instance]

YEAH!!!!!!! I think I signed up for a copy too......and speaking of copies, KEN wheres that 5150 vid at?? Ken, you gonna make it to this weekends ride(2/2), since you DID mention you are able to.

 

[MackeyStingray]

still don't have any blank CDRs. plus i need to find the damn VCDs in this pile of garbage i call my workstation.:rolleyes though very little work actually gets done here.

i should be able to get some copies by trackday though....maybe.

Not to worry brotha..very little work gets done here either..HAHAHA

As to the 2/2 ride. I will be riding Redwood Rd around 10ish in the morning. Then i have a 5150 Brunch to go to. If you guys would like to ride something a lil more technically challenging than Hghwy 9, come by. Call me if you want to hook up. 510-326-1731. And i dont expect to get phone calls in the middle of the night from sumone breathing heavily...HAHAHHAA ( its happened before )

I only have one bike movie and it's a documentary actually of Joey Dunlop back in the heyday of the 1983 Isle of Man TT.

The first on-bike racing film ever avail to the public. He rips that island and gets crazy ass 180mph air hang time like nothing. He set the mark. I like reality based films like this so trying to control myself from going crazy and buying all the new stunters vids!

So just bought one only. The Stunnin in SF vid of course. stand up wheelies on three major bridges, why not! how they missed the San Mateo bridge also is beyond me.

anyhows, here's info on V-Four Victory:

I also got the full throttle vcds. The sequel is called "The legend of Speed" starring Ekin Cheng. He is also in a bunch of chinese gangster movies. Anyways the motorcycle race in the beginning was cool especially the part when he smashed in the Ferrari's window.

The car he smashed was a yellow porsche
