The 53-year-old Travolta described the film, which sees four middle-aged men take a road trip on their motorbikes, as a "blast" and announced that he had already been asked to star in the sequel.
He said: "All motorcycles can be dangerous but I fly jets and race cars and all sorts of fun things. So I'm not worried about the dangerous part of machines. I just like toys.
"It was so much fun to read. It was the kind of movie I wanted to be in.
"It was three months of a gruelling schedule. It was a blast with four guys that were fantastic comedians and the fun between takes was even more fun than doing the movie, trying to make each other laugh and entertain each other between takes."
He added: "They've asked us to do a sequel."
Tim Allen, also 53, was accompanied by his wife Jane.
He said: "I almost said yes immediately (to the movie). It's really about four guys who need to make some changes in their lives."
Speaking about his co-stars, Allen said: "Once you talk to John (Travolta) you realise he is about 10-years-old. He's like everyone's annoying younger brother.
"Ray's (Liotta) real serious but John's not serious. John likes everything his way."
In the film the Wild Hogs gang includes John Travolta, Tim Allen, Martin Lawrence and William H Macy.
Liotta, who plays the leader of biking gang the Del Fuegos, said: "I had never ridden a motorcycle before and never really wanted to but it was a great way to learn.
"Some movies are a grind but this was a lot of fun."
Also at last night's premiere at the Odeon West End, in Leicester Square, were Jermaine Jackson, Simon Webbe, Emma Forbes and Right Said Fred's Fred and Richard Fairbrass.
