I Robot question
Anybody got any idea why the MV Agusta in I Robot appeared in black with Cagiva emblazoned down the side?

Were they genuinely hoping to disguise the bike, or was it MV's parent company paying big bucks for product exposure.

Sadly the latter I feel........

I never noticed that Cagiva was down the side....
It did look STUNNING though....SPECIALLY with Will Smith on the back of it....SIGH

Anyway...dont Cagiva Own MV and husquvarna (probably spelt that wrong!)...?
Surely...if they have sponsored a film they are gonna have their name stuck on the side of the bike???

If you were Tamborini one of the greatest bike designers of all time IMHO, surely you would slap the name of your employer on the side of your design

Even the early Moto GP models were Ducati's but badged Cagiva....The parent company.

(But then only a humble girlies opinion...someone will come and put me right...I'm sure!)

Shame he doesn't badge the bikes with his own name...

I'm gonna look for the screen shot now...(only so I can ogle Will Smith again!!!!)

Erm...Haven't Cagiva always been bigger than the companies they have taken over...Haven't their employed Designers always delivered.....???
Appreciate the company that made DUCATI a Household ICON...and are probably doing the same for MV by sticking it in a top 10 movie like the texans did with the Ducati in the Matrix.......

Sorry Yeti...after all that it doesn't say Cagiva....
It says SPR...whoever that is? Doesn't even advertise the fact that is MV.
