Yea, I got that, but was concentrating on remembering Cameron Diaz's name, and forgot that part... LOL  Dang, this getting old crap is hard!   ;D

I've seen Cruise ride in several movies, so I assume he knows what he's doing, but I think I'd still let a dummy take my place too.  The hair looks real, down to the dark roots, but the legs are too skinny...  

Why would they fake an Aprilla to look like a Ducati?  They were riding Triumphs in the last movie I saw him riding in, but maybe they weren't Triumphs after all...   :o

Maybe it is just a dummy pretending to be a dummy.

The front end of those bikes is just ughlee to me.
& yea, Why get an Aprilla & do that to it? If I wanted a Duc, Ida got one, &^ if I had an Aprilla, I think Ida left it looking like one.. Maybe it got scuffed up & the Duc parts were free?

Probably all too true. Cruise also wears lifts in his shoes because he is so short.

I think thats a Ducati Hypermotard. And yes I would like one. Note the radial mount front caliper.

I think you're right KLX...  The source I got the pic from said it was an Aprilia in Duc dress... but it sure looks like a Ducati Hypermotard

BUT, if someone wants to post some info on the whys & hows, Id have a llook
