This. Unless the script calls for the bike to be driven in front of a '62 Buick at speed, I'd be inclined to loan it. I mean, I'd think it pretty cool that the guy was walking along, saw my bike and said, "
That's the one," so give me a DVD when you're finished and we'll call it even. I'd definitely want to be present for filming though; I wouldn't go for something where I hand it off and get it back in a couple of days when they're through.
