Ducati is a sponsor.
Aprilla's were used in some sequences for technical (stunts) reasons. If a scene calls for a Lambo to be blown up, do you blow up a real lambo or a Fiero in a Lambo suit? |

Even the case cover in the top pic still says Aprilia. What the hell? Would have been simpler to buy a Duc, no?
C'mon now, Aprilia > Fiero. |

A $12-15K bike is nothing to a major studio, so I don't see that as a concern.
