So I was watching a Jason Statham movie called "Working Man", and there was a biker gang, and one of the bikes had a headlight that looked a lot like the Fat Bob or Sportster S, so that piqued my curiosity. Hard to make out what it was since it was always shown at night in dark scenes.

Towards the end of the film the guy on the bike crashes it through a window to get inside, and Statham murders him instantly and we see the bike crash into a wall and explode, and as it's laying there dead on its side I finally I was able to identify it -- it was a LiveWire S2 Del Mar(!)

The bike's big moment is when it crashes, explodes, and lies dead like a cockroach. Foreshadowing, perhaps? Poetic justice? Irony? Call it what you will.

What in the hell was Harley thinking? Who's in charge of marketing over there? I actually like the Del Mar S2 (for what it is) but a 1%er Russian biker gang?? Who thought this was a good idea?

Director: "We've got a movie with a savage murderous gang of Russian mobsters led by a giant Special Ops guy who wears a helmet with horns on it. They're the enforcers for a human trafficking/drugrunning operation. We thought that since they're all genuine badasses who hang around in a stereotypical biker bar, "hey, maybe Harley would want to sponsor us with a bike."

Harley: "Sure, we've got the exact perfect match. We'll send over a LiveWire Del Mar."

(later, in post production)

Editor: "Wait, what the hell do we do with this? Didn't you guys record audio???"
Post Production Audio: "It's electric.. It doesn't make noise."
Editor: "#@^ !#$(@& $%##. Screw it. Dub in some motorcycle sounds from a cheap Honda parallel twin. And while you're at it, do a female voiceover so everyone knows it's a girl's bike."

 

Just enjoy the movie.........
