So the World’s Fastest Indian is a Ducati?

I second that, this is/was a staple movie movie when I used to bring the flavor of the week back to the pad.
Ladies liked the big screen but hated the movie in favor of the creepy man breathing down their necks (ME!).
The good ones banged and then asked to start the movie again...we call them keepers!
(lucky lady on the right is my keeper)

Nice movie but Sir Anthony Hopkins can't ride his out of a wet paper
bag...
The real Burt Munro worked out of a garage just like us...

I dont understand all this Hatred for Sir Anthony, he's not a professional rider, he's a professional
actor (and a damn fine one, at that). You are neither. I suppose youre his close personal friend and know for a fact that he has never thrown a leg over a bike? Dont hate the man just because he's been more successful than you could ever hope to be.
Somehow Larry I highly doubt you have the riding skills that the pro who did the riding in the movie does, yet you want to talk trash about the guy he doubled for...
As for comparing yourself to the real B
u rt, you cant even spell the man's name right, much less hope to achieve anything like he did. He made a 1920s Indian go over 200mph, I doubt you could do that with your overrated RC45.
No Larry, youre no Burt...youre just a squid with a lathe

Further evidence that you cannot differentiate between fantasy (acting) and reality.
