I don't see phallanx handlebar machine gun on the HD options website like the one in the "Machete" picture. How do I order one with a mount?

I guess the pilot "Then Came Bronson" came and got left in the dust. So Jim "where you headed?"

They got the bike in T2 wrong as well, It was a 91 Fatboy, not a 90. And how could they leave out "Stone Cold" that was a good biker flick.

#2 should have been #1. The original biker flick. That, and Lee Marvin was WAY cooler than Brando in that flick.

GREAT FatBoy Scenes! XRs usually get the 2 stroke treatment. Remember Sylvester Stallone escaping from the local constabulary aboard a stolen XR???

BRingaaaa-BRingaaaaa.......
