Five Films That Will Inspire You To Buy A Motorcycle

I was sitting on the couch the other night watching the movie 'Easy Rider,' starring Peter Fonda, Dennis Hopper, Jack Nicholson and a couple of sweet bikes. Seeing those guys travel the open road so freely got me thinking, maybe I need a motorcycle.

Terminator 2
Killer Cyborg on a Killer Bike
The chase scene with Arnold on the motorcycle going after the terminator in a semi that's attempting to murder John Connor is enough to make you run out and purchase a brand new bike. Did you see the jump he landed with that motorcycle? Insane.

Wild Hogs
A Bunch of Buddies on a Bike Trip
Nothing like a road trip with your best buddies. Sure, it's fun to cram into a car and ride for hours while your friend sleeps on your shoulder and drools on your shirt, but wouldn't you have a blast if you were all on bikes? The answer is yes.
