And on Friday Michelle Rodriguez took her prowess behind the wheel to her motorbike, taking a ride to lunch at the Tra di Noi restaurant in Malibu on Friday.

The actress stripped down from her bike leathers when she arrived and showcased her toned limbs and cleavage in a figure hugging black vest top.

Wearing a pair of circular mirrored sunglasses, her hair was messy and wind blown from her ride.

Michelle was no doubt warm from biking in the LA heat, as she wore a pair of black jeans, along with over the knee leather boots along with her heavy jacket.

The 37-year-old left her hot wheels outside the restaurant as she went in to enjoy her lunch date.

Meanwhile, on Thursday Michelle dished about the upcoming eighth installment of The Fast and the Furious franchise while chatting with E! News at the Harper's Bazaar Icon Party.

She excitedly revealed that they're 'trying to round up the troops' so as to begin shooting 'next summer.'

Michelle seemed thrilled to be working on the upcoming sequel, thinking of it as a way to 'move on after Paul [Walker],' who died in a tragic car crash in 2013.

She continued: 'And being that this is a global franchise now, it's not just the American baby, it's important that we consider moving on and take it seriously.'

The Lost actress stressed the need for the film to have 'heart' and hoped to find 'somebody who's passionate about directing it - I think that's the most important thing is finding a good director.'

She also dished that they were hoping to shoot in New York for the eighth film, an idea the studio seemed open to.

'It'll be my first movie at home since Girl Fight!' Michelle gushed, as she joked of keeping her fingers crossed that the movie gets its East Coast location.

Meanwhile, her co-star Vinn Diesel previously talked a little bit about Fast 8, which he has nicknamed 'F8 - aka Fate,' while at the MTV Movie Awards.

'Paul used to say that 8 was guaranteed and, in some ways, when your brother guarantees something, you have to make sure it comes to pass,' he said, adding: 'So, if fate has it - fate, F8 - then you'll get it. Furious 7 was for Paul; 8 is from Paul.'

The eighth film is set for release in April 2017.
