"The World's Fastest Indian".....
...is streaming on Netflix right now. I hadn't heard of it before, but at 22:00 in, it looks pretty good.

I am the Worlds Fastest Indian number 1 fan.
I have seen the movie on DVD like a. Hundred times. I first saw the movie at a theater. I had just become interested in motorcycles again after 16 years off motorcycles. I have been to Invicargill New Zealand. I. Have stood on Oreti beach I went to Hayes hardware store and saw the real bikes. I went to the museum and checked all the bits from the movie. My wife who is from New Zdealand bought me a BIG movie poster singed by Roger Donaldson.One of only 20 .It is framed and hangs in the house. I have read two books about Burt Munro and now have A new one I got for Christmas. I have raced land speed for 3 years and made 97 passes. All with a Worlds Fastest Indian tee shirt on I am a geek I know. Last futzed with by Racer x; January 21st, 2011 at 06:52 PM. |

my sister had it and i wasnt even interested in motorcycles at the time. i finally watched it with my gf after i got my ninjette and i thought man, this is one good movie. my gf isnt even into motorcycles and she liked it a lot. i think what makes it really good is the story of burts journey more than the motorcycle itself.
