    Damnation Alley: Roger Zelazny.

    Featuring "Hell" Tanner, the last of the Californian Angels.

    Fairly early post-nuclear-apocalypse tale.

    Made it to a pretty poor film, and used in 2000AD comic as the basis for a really good set of of Judge Dredd stories, featuring mayhem, motorbikes and a criminal biker: "Spikes Harvey Rotten".

  • Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance by Robert Pirsig is a memoir built around a cross-country bike trip, and told with the narrative flair of good fiction. It's very philosophical and heavy, and probably nothing like what you're looking for, but maybe one day you'll see a copy in a bookstore and remember this recommendation and say, "why not?" If and when that day comes, you'll thank me.

    Hell's Angels by Hunter S. Thompson. not really fiction but when your on as many drugs as Thompson it reads like it is.
