Transformed

TRANSFORMED

If you’re not a huge fan of the Transformers movies, it’s no big deal; but mention the name of gorgeous actress Megan Fox in the same breath as motorcycles like the Aprilia RS125 with which she is pictured here, or the Ducati 848, MV Agusta R 312 and Suzuki B-King used in the film, and I bet we have your attention.

With motorcycles written into the storyline of the blockbuster hit, Transformers.' Revenge of the Fallen, director Michael Bay contacted Will Kenefick of RetroSBK to build and maintain the six bikes (two of each) used in the filming of the movie. After Kenefick acquired the bikes, the bodywork was dismantled and sent to Chris Wood at AirTrix who spent countless hours spraying the bikes. Modifications to the bikes were done purely for visual enhancement, not for performance, so they could be digitally, urn, transformed, to fight the giant Deception robots in the film’s thrilling action sequences.

Rumor has it there will be more of the Ducati, MV and B-King in Transformers 3, and you can bet your bottom dollar there will be much more of Megan Fox.
