Motorcycles and Tom Cruise they go together since he was just a very young kid.
He appeared riding a motor bike in @ least ten films that I could find.

1. M:I - Fallout
2. M:I - Rogue Nation
3. M:I - lll
4. M:I - ll
5. Top Gun: Maverick
6. Top Gun
7. Edge of Tomorrow
8. Oblivion
9. Knight and Day
10. Days of Thunder

The bike he's sitting on* (post #18), one of his bikes (he also owns a Bugatti Veyron, and many more), is a $100,000 jewel piece of bike.
* "Vyrus 987 C3 4V, which is the most powerful production motorcycle in the world.

The Italian made chopper is also one of the most expensive models around, retailing at around $103,769."

Looks like Tom is a #meToo candidate.

Tom turned 56 just few weeks ago.

Minority Report, is it a bike or a car?

I tried to find a real test of this guy ...


@ first it was reported 420 mph, but it doesn't look that it has what it truly takes, agility and not that macho looks. Still, it seems that it can do 350 mph.

Just imagine riding that thing in your downtown and stop by Burger King!

The "Like" feature is for kids, not for mature adults. It's like playing Bingo on Saturday afternoon @ your local church hall. I wouldn't sweat over it. The real love in life is from your wife and kids and families and real friends. On forums your real friends they say it to you with real words, not with games and clicks.

That's a nice bike, I like white...it's elegance class of sobriety.
* The other machine beside it is a go-kart?

Thanks for the compliment on the bike.

It is an Enduro kart, or "laydown kart",used on the big road courses like Road Atlanta, Daytona, VIR, etc. There are different classes according to motors used. Mine was good for 100mph, but the fast rich guys do 160 at Daytona. The most fun you can have with your clothes on.

The 2 current bikes in my garage are a 2016 1290 SDR se (avatar) and a 2012 k1600 gtl. I rode the GTL from chicago th phoenix last spring and back! high winds heading west and thunderstorms coming back kept things interesting yet I'm looking forward to my next adventure.
