Poppy Montgomery is back filming her TV drama Unforgettable on the streets of New York City.

On Friday, the pretty Australian, 43, rocked a red leather jacket for her role as a cop who can remember everything and uses that skill to solve crimes.

And the flame-haired beauty was clearly hankering for a little extra action to go with the biker look, sharing a photo of herself on the back of a Harley Davidson motorbike with the caption: 'The need for #speed Carrie Wells is a #b****s babe on a bike this episode.'

The mother-of-three is starring in season four of the drama which aired for three seasons on CBS.
