Sydney Daily telegraph article

Anyone notice the brief article in the Sydney Telegraph, I dont have the exact text but basically a Yamaha Australia 'insider' has stated that Yamaha will be supplying the trailbikes and ATV's (those 4 wheel off road scooters) for MM4. Supposedly shooting starts in May in Namibia???

It was in the motorbikes section at the back of the car classifieds. If I can find the exact article, I'll repeat it here.

Namibia?

Oh no, not this again!

This is of course a misinformation, but the news about the bikes are interesting...

What? What is an "ATV"?

ya know its like 4 wheel dirt bikes, Now that you mention this its sounds perfect for the movie. THey've had plenty of bikes as it is in the series, but now that even the roads have deteriorated it makes perfect sense to switch to ATV's It will be cool to seem some custom Mad Max tricked out customs ATV's

Crap.

12 year olds ride ATVs.

Not Max.

I hope.

AAAAAAA

It's getting scary now, I'm getting visions of the gangs on jetbikes in Waterworld.

MM4 better not become Waterworld 1 1/2

My guess is that you won't see any ATV's on screen in MM4.Trail bikes sure, but the ATV's are probably being provided for the production crew to haul equipment like cables,cameras and lights. They may customise one with a camera mount or just use it to pop over the hill to get a sandwich from the catering truck.

That makes sense...

but geez i dont think it wouldve been sooo bad to see ATV in MM4

I could be wrong
