Celebs on Dukes !
 

Picked up 'Hello' magazine in a customer reception today and was quite chuffed to see that a short arsed little actor by the name of a Mr Tom Cruise has a 999R..in full carbon fairing !!!

Some pics of him arriving on it in his 'ducati meccanica' jacket at an academy awards after show party !!!!

Nice one Thomas...:D..Hmmm..I wonder how much he pays for his servicing..or even his bike for that matter !!!?

Any other duke owning celebs you know of ?! ..I can think of Ewan McGregor, Les Ferdinand, Nick Faldo..also know Ayrton Senna was a big fan....(his 851 was his prized possesion I believe ?!)

Cheers

Chris Walker has a 749R as one of his road bikes...

He bought it for his Head bodyguard to ride around.

The body guard also owns a mint 888 itt's like brand new.

By the way I have known his boyguard since he was with us when we got pulled on the A303 about 10 years ago :lol::lol:


Got done for 101.3:lol::lol:

You missed me antonye Ive got a 996 :lol:

:o lawks! - that means I'm old too!!:o

C, wake me up before you go-go.......:cool:

You forgot Eric Bana (The Hulk, Black Hawk Down, Chopper)

He has a 900SS, a 916 and something else ... regularly at the Supers and GP's at Phillip Island.

Charlie Boarman has a 748 that "he loves" :cool:

Also Matt le Blanc was being interviewed by JK and Joel on Radio1 yesterday PM and hes got a collection of bikes...wasnt specific (in fact he was a bit dull to be honest in real life !!) but youd have to bet on a fancy duke in there wouldnt you ??!!

Who, VBH? Damn fast bird that one.


According to the book Long Way Round, he gave it to Charlie Boorman, who still has it..

Jay Leno must own one. He owns god knows how many bikes.

Mr S has said what I was going to say that Charlie Borman (sp?) has Ewan's 748... it was stolen...

I think Goldie has a monster, saw it years ago at JHP at John's barn, totally "blinged" up, everything was gold, gold plated bits everywhere... some PR gift from DUK

Leno has a Hailwood rep.

Yes its VBH. They did a feature last year with her and Tiff doing a Ron Haslam School at Donington. Tiff threw his CBR into the kitty litter.

thats it....anyone want to buy a good, low mileage 916sps??:o

Look how shiney that front pipe is! How do you get them to stay shiney, unless of course it's never been ridden. Perhaps only just took delivery .. <giving benefit of the doubt> :sing:

Matt Le Blanc rides an Aprilia Nera. It was given to him after he visted the factory. Don't know if you ever noticed but on the prog there use to be if I remember right a 996 parked outside the coffee shop place.

Let's not forget Dr Evil and MiniMe :)

Rode them in the movies....

Laurence Fishburne & Stephen Baldwin ( Fled )
Seth Green (Italian Job)

I can personally vouch for Eddie Irvine's 916SPS because my father-in-law has done some building work for the said man in Oxford and guess what was parked in his living room?! He even asked Eddie's agent if it was for sale and was told in polite terms to **** off!

Any one noticed the trailer for a drama with Angus Deaton on 999 in the North of England might be fun to watch ??:sing:
