I signed it. I drive an import and it just got terrible after the movie F&F came out. Would you want to be harrased and pulled over ever day? No, There is no point for this movie. It will just make law enforcement depict bikers in a negative way(Like it already isnt bad enough). Ryan

If this movie hits the theatres, you're gonna see all these little kids wanting a bike now. It's gonna be a mess.

 

Hahahahahah, this movie is HORRIBLE.

I was one of the extras in the movie, and this movie just plain out stupid.

 

yeah, i wanted a bike (im 16) but after i saw the previews to that movie i feel like im just going to get s*** from people,saying i want a bike just becuase of the movie. It almost makes me NOT want to get a bike. BTW im not one of those stupid biker little kids, I think im gonna go with the EX500.

Are you kidding me ? Just do not go and see it, that should be enough. I hate censorship and if you hope people will stop being dumb because they have not seen that movie, I think you are mistaken.

 

i want to get a bike next year and now i will have to hear alot of crap about me wanting a bike b/c of a stupid movie. oh well i'm getting one anyway.

 

I don't think the movie will make that much of an impact. IMO, the sportbike scene is already stunna infested as it is. But I suppose it could get worse.

 

yeah wth im about to get a bike in a few months and now im gonna be embarrased to go and buy one because i know they will be thinking im getting one because of this damn movie

 

What once was a "underground" group of guys who loved ride bikes, is now becoming mainstream. I love riding, probably more than anything else I am doing right now. I hate to see kids who are not ready for one, getting a Gixxer 1k and dying

 

any movie with kid rock in it must not be good

 

Since i crashed my bike and won't have the money to fix it until atleast may i considered takign it off insurance so i could get some money back...So i called my agent and he said to leave it on the policy or else my new rates would be higher and they might not even be able to write a new policy...he was aware of the movie coming out and said that along with other things is gonna make it really hard, almost impossilbe for new young riders to get policy's...kinda good and bad...it will keep alot of squids off the roads but suck for people like me(perfect driving record..etc, I do stunt but 99% of the time its in parking lots, and outa trafic and i have crashed 2 times in the last 3 months, One was my fault (flipped a stoppie) and the other i was hit and ran off the road(lady kept goin ) but neither got claimed to insurance....Basically this summer is gonna be pretty bad with the cops...First it will be Biker Boyz then its F&F '2 all over again

 

I suppose no bike for me then, and damn i was really looking forward to this summer and getting one. Biker Boyz

 

ex500 rates are really good, should be under 350 for new rider comprehensive only. Just make sure its 498cc class and never ever mention the word "ninja"

 

Well there are good points and bad points:

<U></U> <U></U>
Bike sales up Death rate up
Less ricey cars More ricey bikes
Less heat on imports More heat on bikes

Well looks like its good for us and bad for the bike guys. I am really sorry. Trust me i have been through it.

 

My car (1998 Type-r) and Bike (1997 VFR750) will be for sale in the very near future. I just want to get out, its getting stupid. Ryan

 

Actually its gonna mean more ricey bike AND more ricey cars...can't forget about F&F 2 coming out in June

 

quit your bitchin!!!!!!!!! i mean damn... first of all, if you actually CARE about what people think when you ride a bike, then dont get one... EVER. you dont deserve one. second of all, a movie is not going to make people think youre a poser because you buy a bike; the most it will do is make them JEALOUS. third of all, the fast and the furious helped the import scene more than anything. how many more import car shows are there now? how many more sponsored racers do you see? its not like cops didnt like street racing BEFORE the movie came out. they hate us, and they always will, whether there is a movie about our beloved import scene or not. see these movies how they actually are... they may have bad acting, but finally the import scene is starting to get the coverage it deserves. the same with sportbikes also. think before you get pissed about a movie.

 

This movie is just F&F on 2 wheels.It's the American way to exploit/make $$$/& play out everything that is cool & sacred. Plus,how can you go wrong with such a pro actor & rider like KidRock? What a badass! BTW,there's a F&F TV show in development right now,slated for fall release.

 

Before you know it, all the powersports (jetskis, snowmobiles, etc etc) will be exploited like the import scene was by the FATF.

I think I'm going to go back to being a pedestrian

 

that sucks, been saving my money to get a bike in the summer since my GS-R was stolen and stripped to the cage. i never even heard of this movie till i saw the biker boyz commercial on the super bowl.

what to do now....

 

Just for the record, I've already completed my MSF course and currently in the process of looking for a bike. (And saving $$$)

*Hopefully I don't get called a bandwagoneer when I buy my first bike*

 

Whats this about the insurance??? Im gonna be gettin mine in march becasue i live in jersey and its actually snowing now. I got a hard enough time getting it because i got 2 tickets, are you positive its gonnna make it hard to get? I really just think the dood is tryin to keep you on insurance so you waste your money. No way a movie could make the entire insurance company redo there policies.

 

Aw, at least keep the Type R, they are so beautiful.

 

Doesn't really have anything to do with the movie itself, just the idea that alot of new, young riders are going to want policies, and yes its goin to get harder, insurance companies do not like sportbikes, alot of them won't even write policies for sportbikes anymore...
