XV62 Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 Anyone else catch the two motorsickles the two troopers getting whacked were riding on Bonnie and Clyde last night. Just barely showed 'em. One with big fenders and one small fenders. Not sure if that is anachronisticly correct for 1934, but they were plainly Indians. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mycorn Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 dont watch much TV but skirted fenders didn show up till '40 fwiw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K2V2 Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 I saw that and said to my wife, that looks like an Indian! (Even if not period correct for the movie.) In every old B&W movie pre-1955 or so, whenever there is a motorcycle, my radar is on to see if it's an Indian. Somtimes you don't get a very good look at them.

XV62 Posted December 11, 2013 Author Share Posted December 11, 2013 dont watch much TV but skirted fenders didn show up till '40 fwiw That's what I was thinking, that the big fenders was wrong. The identifying item on the small fender model was clearly the horn cover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwissIndian Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 (edited) Very often movie makers are making this kind of mistakes ..... for ex. The Great Escape with Steve McQueen - the jump was done on a TT Special 650 Triumph , the movie Winchester'73 - the model '73 in fact was a model '94 and so on .......

2blackbelts Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 I thought the bike on the left was an Indian, and the other a Harley. The whole Bonnie and Clyde thing was so inaccurate and rediculous. It was probably one of the worst redo's of about anything I have seen. Both of them looked like they stepped out of GQ. The cars were wrong as were some of the weapons. I was an insult to Faye and Warren. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the one with small fenders had a feathered horn cover on it. Could have been mistaken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
335 Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 just before the the show they had a special about 18 mo in 33 an 34 about darenger bonnie an clyde mg kelly that was very interesting, i remember my mom talking about them when i was a boy she would have been 14 at the time, ya could see why the country folks kinda liked them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tahoe Chief Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 You guys are watching the wrong channels. Try the history channel, they go over some cool shit there, and with a DVR, you can watch, a couple shows, without all the bull shit commercials.
