Terminator Salvation Motorcycle

Ducati North America announced last week that “Terminator Salvation” has made the Ducati’s Hypermotard 1100 to take a new form as Moto-Terminators.

“This movie is all about technology taken to such a high level that it becomes an art form,” said “Terminator Salvation” director McG. “To me that fits as a description of Ducati. The bikes came through like champions.” McG actually purchased one of the four bikes used in the movie.

It is the machine on two wheels that Skynet sent to hunt people on the streets of the United States in 2018. The bike has no pilot, being equipped with artificial intelligence and permanently connected with Skynet's ‘brain’.

Endowment of weapons is partly visible. As robots from the previous films had a passion for miniguns, motorcycles continue with the tradition and are fitted on both sides with such spray of bullets. Near the front wheel two pipes can be recognized, which are attached to the fork to eye the enemy even when the vehicle is turning.

Computer graphics were used to create the Moto-Terminators based on the design and performance of the Hypermotard, however the actual bikes were used for all the stunt riding in the film.

“The Hypermotard is becoming a real celebrity in its own right. This is its second appearance in a major motion picture this year,” said Ducati North America CEO Michael Lock. The Hypermotard was also featured in Warner Bros. Pictures hit comedy “Yes Man,” with Jim Carrey.
