Ducati is a sponsor.
Aprilla's were used in some sequences for technical (stunts) reasons.

If a scene calls for a Lambo to be blown up, do you blow up a real lambo or a Fiero in a Lambo suit?

[anthonyk]

Even the case cover in the top pic still says Aprilia. What the hell? Would have been simpler to buy a Duc, no?

C'mon now, Aprilia > Fiero. :lol

What, Tom's fake hair? (how many other 46-year old guys do you know with perfectly straight hairlines)

[jtemple]

I smell Photoshop.

A $12-15K bike is nothing to a major studio, so I don't see that as a concern.

[pauldun170]

Pic is real.
Bike is an Aprilla with Ducati bits tacked on.

Stunt coordinator prefers Aprilla
Sponsor is Ducati

have a beer
You end up with Aprillacati

Tom couldnt get his feet down on a real duc, also that is not diaz, shes too tall and would make him look like a midget

[Gas Man]

And what other 46 yr old men don't have gray hair... especially in this day and age!

[Homeslice]

I was going to say, I hope that's not her, because whoever that is has a flat butt and stick legs.

[Dave]

Its a dummy, you can see the feet are zip tied to the pillon

Then that would definitely be diaz

[OneSickPsycho]

For reals.

Not really.......She has a better figure than whoever/whatever is in that photo.

You mean the Ducati is not capable of performing for the technical reasons and they had to use Italy's real motorcycle company's products, right?:lol

Kinda doubt a dorsoduro could do it either :2cents:

Plus it's got a real douchebag at the controls, so it might as well be a vespa.

Exactly :lmao:

Maybe it's a cadaver.

Why is it on rains?

And Carmen Diaz doesn't? :lol

[derf]

I just watched a featurette about the making of the movie where cruise talks about riding that bike between bulls during the running of the bulls, and the guy is full of horseshit. So I totally understand that its movie promotion and therfore its supposed to be bullshit but damn! Cruise was talking about sliding the bike sideways between the bulls because the ground was slick, and about how he wasnt scared of laying the bike down, but he didn't want to let diaz get hurt

[fnfalman]

What the hell does the Dorsoduro have to do with people dressing up an SXV to look like a Hypermotard?

The point is when they needed a supermoto that can perform, they had to break out the SXV and dress it up to look like a Ducati because obviously the Hypermotard couldn't cut it.

If you can't follow the tracks of the logic train I used to make the statement you need new glasses

See that might be a decent reason....

"Bull gored me pretty bad...Had to lay it down"

Is it possible that the ducati was just too big for cruise? and that they needed a smaller bike to make him look normal size? The bike in the picture looks like it might be lowered a little


See that might be a decent reason....

"Bull gored me pretty bad...Had to lay it down"

Yeh, thats a pretty good excuse, right next to the dinosaur ate my homework

[Rangerscott]

Pansies lower their bikes.
