Great movie recommendation

World's Fastest Indian

Starring Anthony Hopkins.

Chinabikers will love it because much of the movie involves the man/machine interface. Construction, modification, fabrication. The fun and the pride in getting much more from a machine than the designers had in mind.

All the while spending no money.

He fabricates pistons, cylinders, connecting rods, etc. All based on a true story.

Some fun action scenes, No sex or violence. The name of The Lord is taken in vain a few times but otherwise no foul language. Family friendly, by modern standards, such as they are.

Be sure to watch the bonus features.

I really had a great time watching it so I say go rent it, get some friends, a beer, and a pizza and you're good to go.

Excellent movie. The safety inspection at Salt Lake was priceless!

That is a good movie, Doc; I saw it about a year ago.

A little hokey, but a great movie. I've seen it twice, and I'd watch it again.
