Line 10:
Enter the Badass Biker.
Possibly popularized by the [[Marlon Brando]] movie ''[[The Wild One]]'' and the [[James Dean]] movie ''[[Rebel Without a Cause]]'', the Badass Biker is the absolute epitome of the viciously cool vagrant tough guy. Whether they are traveling through the desert, city streets, a [[Motorcycle on the Coast Road|coastal road]], or [[Rule of Cool|up a wall]], this character and bike combo exudes an aura of awesome that eclipses just about any other [[Badass]] + vehicle combination.
A pretty universal trope as media from America, Europe, and Japan all love to employ badass bikers. They're also surprisingly versatile, since Badass Bikers can be heroes or anti-heroes, or, in gangs, they can be villains or mooks.
Line 17:
Might also be a [[Biker Babe]]. A Badass Biker who is a thug or gang member usually fits into [[All Bikers Are Hells Angels]] as well.

== Anime
* ''[[Katekyo Hitman Reborn]]'': Tsuna and Yamamoto in Choice. Airbikes in the [[They Changed It, Now It Sucks|anime....]]

Line 79 ⟶ 80:
* ''[[Venus Wars]]'' is chock full of badass bikers since it's about battle bike riders and motorbike military units with [[The Hero|Hiro (Ken) Seno]], [[Biker Babe|Miranda]] and [[Majorly Awesome|Major Kurtz]] topping the list.
* Kawasaki Raimu from ''[[Bakuon!!]]'' (AKA [[Fan Nickname|"Stig-sempai"]]), a [[The Faceless|faceless]], [[The Voiceless|voiceless]] figure who just gets more [[Shrouded in Myth]] every time someone who knows her appears on screen.
* Rei in ''[[éX-Driver]]''.
