Lee Marvin was portraying a charicter based on Wino Willie of the Booze Fighters M.C. The real Wino Willie lived a pretty long life and had his ashes scattered in Fort Bragg on the Northern California coast. I grew up in Northern Cal around all those old timers. Most were and are the Salt of the Earth as Grandma used to say.

Not a movie, but there was a series called Renegade that had a Harley in it.

 

Larenzo Lamas played a bounty hunter in that and had a big indian friend and a hot blonde. Was only on tv about a season or so. That was a nice bike he rode. I think is was a chopped shovelhead.

 

UD - Check this pic out. I took it over labor day weekend. This is the beach where Wino's ashes are spread. My cousin is the P for one of the NoCal chapters and he has invited my Dad and I to their Labor Day campout in Ft Bragg for the past few years. On Saturday we all rode to the beach to pay respect to Wino. This year they were honored by Gil Armas showing up for the weekend. We also spent a good deal of time at the Tip Top, which was a favorite of Wino. It's always a good time when the BFMC are around.
