Continuity mistake: At the end of the film, Johnny is shown driving onto the freeway northbound from Hollywood, then shows him in Calabasas, and then Thousand Oaks.

One is a 1940s Harley Davidson with a springer front end and the very recognizable horn below the headlight, and the other is a late 1990s (at the oldest) cruiser with a front end that's completely different in every way.
