I was looking get some motorcycle movies for the ol' DVD collection.  I turned my cable off so I have to watch something.  I was wondering shat are the best Motorcycle Movies of all time, seriously!  I am looking for movies about motorcycles or movies that motorcycles play a primary role, not movies with motorcycles as a prop.  Bick I know you love Tom Cruise in Days of Thunder where he rides the Harley around the track at the beginning, but that is exactly what I am not talking about.

What am I missing

1.  Faster
2.  Docter, The Tornado & The Kentucky Kid
3.  Long Way Round
4.  Fastest Indian
5.  On any Sunday
6.  The Wild One
7.  ?

Has anyone seen "Little Fauss & Big Halsy" or "Silver Dream Racer"?

Would you include movies like "The Great Escape" or "Easy Rider"?

If you love your bike, set it free.
If it comes back to you, you've
probably high-sided.

Fastest Indian is my favorite moto movie... granted I have seen less than half on that list.

Any recommendations for ones I MUST see?

You forgot about him racing F-14's on his Ninja (on the dirt service road) in Top Gun.

It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

The original Mad Max has to be included on the must see list.

There are so many 70's and 80's bike movies out of Australia that are just priceless.
If you can find a source for old aussie movies please let me know.

I'm also a big fan of the Motorcycle Diaries.  [thumbsup]

Ghost Rider may be on the cusp. Could go both ways on that one...
