Best Motorcycle in a Supporting Role

[skelstar]

I was watching Matrix Reloaded last night for the first time since I have had a MB. I can honestly say that I couldnt remember a MB being in this movie, let alone a Ducati...it was a nice peice of spirited riding by Miss Anne-Moss (apparently did some of her own riding for the movie).

So...I am asking for nominations in the category of Best Supporting Motorcycle in a non Motorcycle Movie. This conveniently (sp) discounts 'Biker Boyz' and 'Torque'.

She should get an award for 'taking a helmet off whilst still wearing sunglasses'. Id be interested in finding out how as I wear glasses.

but not all of it. I recall an article online somewhere about the female stunt rider that did that movie. girl power! woohoo!

also, close examination of the start sequence reveals that the bike that she jumps off the carpark roof and crashes into the building lobby was an MVA F4. I guess general audience recognition is pretty low for MV Agusta, so they didn't bother with the closeup on the fairing logo like they did with the duc later on.

*also* also, she only rode one bike in the original Matrix; you see her taking off on it just after Neo gets captured by the agents. you don't see much of it, but the headlights give it away as a Speed Triple.

I second that

Of course there is MI2 with the Speed Four (or S3 I think) that has the knobbly tires as soon as it hits the beach . Was Dougray Scott's bike the Daytona?

You are right of course. I couldnt remember and made a stab at it...and missed apparently.
