Tom Cruise will be the first customer to take delivery of Ducati’s new US$72,500 Desmosedici RR superbike later this week from Ducati of Beverly Hills. One of only 1,500 limited production red and white Moto GP racing replicas, it boasts titanium, magnesium and carbon fibre technology, and a top speed of 322 km/h.

Michael Lock, chief of Cupertino-based Ducati North America, said the Desmosedici RR "is the impossible dream made possible. We are delighted to be able to deliver the world’s first production unit here in the USA to Tom Cruise, who is a well-known Ducati enthusiast."
