That was a good movie, the thing with two heads, loved the moto footage, but the great escape would have to be the coolest, Steve McQueen getting chased by an army of nazi's on a big BMW, he will always be the man

Well, if you take racing scenes as chase scenes, and, after all, racing is just a bunch of people chasing each other . Well, my other half regularly comes out with that.

I vote for 'Little Fauss and Big Halsy"

Action scenes from "Ruckus", bike chase from ca 2.20. Wanted a KDX ever since, now have two retro 200's. Cool



Also have look at the great moto-love-scene Laughing

I hate when they do it today and they use a 4S and edit ina 2S motor. I was watching Blindspot and there was a dirt bike that was obviously a newer 4S and not a puff of smoke and they had that stupid 2S edit going on.

Thank you, I knew it would be someone I've heard of. I was hoping for Malcom but J.N. is awesome as well. Seeing how it was filmed close by, I was also wondering if Mitch sold them all those Husqvarnas, it was so awesome to see them all brand new like that. It also said in the brief time I researched this that the bikes were modded to reach speeds of over 100 mph. Love to know the full story of how it all went down if anyone knows.

As others have stated, Terminator 2. The Honda and its sweet "engine noise" and that Harley. My back hurts watching that pig bottom in the LA river bed.

Wasn 't Michael Douglas in a chase scene in some shitty little action movie? Seems like it was in Japan maybe? They were running thru a rice paddy/vineyard or some garden looking spot? Black Rain was the name maybe?

Shit, I was poor as a kid and my parents would have never paid for racing (too tight with the money) so I grew up on clapped out XR's just like the terminator kid was on. lol

If this Mitch you are wondering about is Mitch Payton ? you should know that when this movie was made Payton was only 12 years old

What was the recent movie where the 2 guys are riding in Utah or similar and the guy overjumps a gap and flys off a massive cliff and dies?

Maybe in the last year or so.

4 stroke sounds aren't good for properly mixing SFX, DIA, and music. In a nutshell, that's why it's always a 2 stroke SFX.

Black rain

Ruckus was actually an ok movie that had dirk Benedict who later starred in the a-team. sue fish (first woman pro mxer) and John Hatley (pro flat tracker) did the stunts.

Is it just me or did it look like the jump off the car trailer didn't end well? Felt like an endo was coming then it cut to the flying scene.
