Plot: In a rambling, somewhat uneven drama, 14-year-old Jack Simmons (Peter Billingsley) takes it on himself to help his friend, coach Mike (Patrick Collins), save his hot dog and soft drink concession. Mr. Hodgkins (Stuart Pankin) is a greedy, self-serving banker who is determined to raze Mike's hot dog stand and build a new bank on its site. Jack's primary resource in his fight against Mr. Hodgkins is a motorbike that does everything except speak French. With this motorized wonder (which starts itself), Jack tackles a gang of tough bikers and the infamous Mr. Hodgkins, taking him for a ride he will never forget. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, All Movie Guide

Cute Movie
Added 8/29/2005

It was a cute movie. Definately not the best, but not the worst either. I remember loving it as a kid and loved the idea of a dirtbike that has a mind of it's own. My nephews may like it so I'm going to check it out and buy it for them. :)

Best movie of the 80's!
Added 10/18/2004

I remember the first time I saw this movie it was on The Disney Channel. It came on that channel a lot and everytime when it was on I would just watch it all the time. It has the kid Ralhpie from A Christmas Story in it and he's great in this. The scariest part of this movie was that nightmare of that hot dog statue that scared the kid that kind of scared me a lil when I was lil not much anymore though since I'm 23 now. I wanted a bike like that back then in the 80's but now that it's 2004 and that the 80's are gone I'm sure they don't have those bikes around anymore but this movie brings back the memories everytime I watch it. I hope they do a DVD release for this movie because I will just buy it when it comes out. It's such a great movie.

I saw this movie in the theatre when I was 12. I'm now 30. I still remember it as the worst movie I ever saw. Ever. (Raising Cain is #2 and Van Helsing is #3.)
