Probably should have said, it's hard for me to picture Fonda as the 1% type of biker that he portrays in some of the earlier biker movies. I know he still rides as does Hopper but I have always wondered if Jack Nicholson still rides? I saw an interview once with Sonny Barger who said when he met Nicholson he thought he too was one of the Hells Angels hired as an actor. He said he acted more like a HA member then alot of the members did.

I wouldn't kick either one out of my garage. Do like the Billy bike the best though.

Also read this a few months ago, forgot it and just read about it again, Hopper is supposed to be really sick with cancer.

Re: Capt. America & Billy

Both bikes are legends as is the movie. Bummer about Hopper being sick. One of my fav actors. He's quite a character.
Billys my fav of the 2 thou.

That is a cool video. Sort of reminds me of how the great blues musicians never received the recognition that the young white english boys did while playing their music!
