Title: Bike in Paycheck movie
Post by: RC on January 05, 2004, 11:17:36 AM
I saw the trailer for Paycheck with Ben riding a motorcycle.

What is the motorcycle? I'm guessing a Triumph or maybe
BMW.

Oh?

I thought they were slightly dressed up Duc Monsters.

I guess BMW coughed up the biggest product placement check...  :roll:

I checked out the BMW Rockster at the Dallas MC Show, it looked
pretty good but costs too much.

Thanks for the replies.

Rocksters aren't bad, but they need a different name.  Rockster sounds so, well, I think you can guess what I'm thinking.  And I think it was a Triumph fonzie used to jump stuff with.

yeah, i especially love the 4cylinder noises that bmw makes, there must be a lot of old guys wanting to throw up after they heard that noise supposedly coming out of that bike

and fonzi rode a triumph,

it's a bmw.  they had the bike on display at the theater that i went to the other day (irvine spectrum).

the bike had a lot of plastic, which i thought made it look cheezy up close.

and, as with all bmw bikes, i would imagine that they would be overpriced.

My buddy had a rockster...+/-$11k.
loved it but sold it shortly after buying it and bought a bmw r1150gs. Loves that too.


funny, when I first saw that trailer I also thought it was a speed four/triple...

He's actually quite the motorcycle enthusiast.  He has a large collection of sportbikes including a Busa and Yamaha R.  I agree that most of the action must be done by a stunt double - the insurance would be too high if he did it himself.
