You can't go wrong with "She Devils On Wheels."

Well...for old school late 1960's you can check out Peter Fonda and Dennis Hopper in Easy Rider. Quite a nostalgia flick. The director cut is pretty good. Fonda was on weed for most of the flick. For 2007 you can check out a very funny Tim Allen, John Travolta in Wild Hogs.

Don't know if this one is any good, but the
soundtrack is great!

...Not specifically a motorcycle movie, but Mad Max, and the crazy motorcycles in there have been a source of inspiration for years.

Agreed, gotta love those 'low budget' rat bikes.

Nobody said "The Wild One"? Brando on that Triumph, wearing the jacket that we're still wearing 50 years later? Perhaps too obvious...

Which Dirty Harry movie had the rogue biker cops? (The ones where he said they "need more practice")

That would be "Magnum Force".
