He'll take the bike to some chopper boutique to get the dings buffed out, don't worry. Maybe give it a touchup of flat black.

Are custom choppers really that fragile?!?! Looked like a pretty light drop. Cripes, I hit a deer and still rode back to my friend's house.

Nah, Brad's okay in my book. He has several bikes and rides 'em too.

My buddy was the bike wrangler on that Benjamin Button movie. He was supposed to teach Brad to ride that Indian, but Brad just hopped on and took off, no lesson needed.

Yeah, well, sometimes I just assume the worst about guys that have more money and looks than I do. My bad.

Keanneau (sp?) Reeves rides a Norton, I know that.

Well, that's a step up from the douchecanoe he bought when I worked at Oakland Harley.


As much as I dislike his persona, he actually did a cool thing at the end of filming one of the Matrix movies (which were filmed in Alameda in an old Naval hangar). He bought everyone (who wanted one) a Sportster. It was like 32 of 'em or something. Pretty damn cool if you ask me.

This isn't the vid I was thinking of but for someone who is as mercilessly pursued as he is I wasn't surprised to find it. Nice bike.

Brad sounds like a cool guy. Tarantino talking about smoking hash with him, skip to 3:30 or so:

He pulled up next to me while I was on my way back from L.A. (visiting Antihog/Zero or whatever he goes by now) He was canyon bashing in Malibu - surprised I didn't see him since I was practically alone out there.

Stopped at the Shell station while I was making a call. Damn nice guy. Claims his helmet is his only anonymity in L.A. Kinda ruined it when he asked me if I wanted an autograph. I politely declined and he chuckled and said thanx. One of those "clank" moments that you just smile and move on. Sadly, I was on the SV and he was on an S4R Ducati. One of those times I wish I were on the 916 (insecure cred moment for me - sad, I know). Anyway, I was heading out of town so I didn't go back up into the Malibu canyon with him. Seemed pretty down to earth given his standing in L.A.

I like him actually.
seriously, by the time he began to become all sex symbol interview with a vampire meet joe black mega star I read that he was showing his manhood to ladies passing on the highway while shooting kalifornia. And I thought "the guy is OKAY".
I mean a guy pulling his pants down to ladies passing on the highway while being voted the world's sexiest man cannot be all bad can he?

now imagine the same kind of bike "accident" involving tom cruise and how he would have reacted...

helmet, pants, long sleeves, boots, gloves. I've since seen a few pics of Brad on the bike at different times and it seems like that's always the least he's wearing. props!

For the most part I'm cool with anyone who rides, famous and rich means no bones when it's just you and the road. I've liked all the movies I've seen with Brad Pitt, except the one where he gets shot in the face jumping out of a closet (stopped watching after that, It's always a good comedy till you shoot Brad Pitt in the face). The thing about him and Jay Leno and Keannu(sp?) and a lot of others is that they ride their bikes because they like riding, and they'd likely do it if they were broke untalented ugly bastards like us. They don't do it to be "cool", they have enough cool that they could dress up in pink tutus and mud wrastle and they'd still be cooler than I am.

Now, that jackass move John Kerry pulled riding that giant douche canoe up on the stage on the Tonight Show, that was fuggin awful. I hate that kind of shit. Politicians on motorcycles, damn, that's a whole other rant right there.
