This is a wind up, right?

Is it blue in the game?

The old promo pictures for the earlier series of TR games had Lara on a blue cafe racer bike (clips ons, big round headlight, CHOPPED TAIL), although I imagine they used a Triumph as their inspiration as it was a parallel twin...

In the first movie though, the bike that was specially built (sort of streetfighterish) had a very distinct Monster look to it - trellis frame, single seat with monster shaped cowl, and again the big round headlight - this time with Renthal bars (you know it makes sense)... I liked the solid wheels too...

no not a windup just curious, (kinda monster related). Also thought it might make ricky`s journey to the weekendre easier if he thought there was a lara croft type about. (I`m just so considerate)

The bike in the first movie looks like a cross between a Monster and a Buell.
In fact my ideal bike.:thumbsup:
Where can I buy one?

go to the preview video and it crops up very very quickly a couple of times. Early on there's an underseat pipe bike shot from a low camera, a bit 9** but in the middle there's a def possiblity of a monster??

Ok, I am sad. On the preview, you can distinctly see Ducati written on the tank. I'll try to get some screen shots posted.

Here are some screenshots. Frankly, you'd be better off watching the vid.

It is a Ducati though. Sort of looks like an S4(x) type.

Is it me or is Lara not quite as 'pneumatic' as before?

looks like it's been tail-chopped though!

And at least it isn't a beige CCM lash-up like in the second TR Movie... blugh!
