Tom Cruise Spotted Pulling Wheelies On BMW G 310 GS

Photos of Hollywood actor Tom Cruise have appeared on the Internet and social media on the sets of the upcoming Mission Impossible 7 movie. And this time, Cruise, well-known for doing a lot of stunts himself, is riding and pulling wheelies on a made-in-India BMW G 310 GS. From various media reports, the photos are from the UK, specifically the Dunsfold Aerodrome in Surrey, where Cruise is riding a G 310 GS with a safety rig and pulling wheelies as well. According to reports, filming for Mission Impossible 7 was first moved from Italy to the UK, and is now said to be put on hold, due to the coronavirus outbreak.

The BMW G 310 GS used in the stunt has a safety rig attached to it

So, is Tom Cruise actually pulling the wheelies on the BMW G 310 GS? Well, in earlier interviews, Cruise has said that he spent a lot of time training for motorcycle stunts. And he is known to do many of his stunts himself in earlier Mission Impossible films as well, including several bike chase sequences in earlier instalments of the franchise. In one of the latest photos, Cruise can also be seen without a helmet on a stationary bike, but there's no mistaking the BMW G 310 GS. And the wheelie shots seem to be taken with a safety rig, but that we'll put down to a basic safety rig, rather than the lack of riding, or in this case, stunting skills, from Cruise.

Cruise can be seen in another picture without a helmet and talking, possibly to one of the crew members

The behind-the-scenes shots show a rider on a G 310 GS in a black jacket and full-face adventure helmet with the front wheel pointed up. The safety rig seen in the pics could be just a way to prevent any untoward incident, and we don't doubt that Cruise can actually pull wheelies on a motorcycle. A minor injury to the star of the next Mission Impossible movie could well put production on hold, costing a lot of money. From the looks of it, the next MI movie certainly looks promising, if motorcycle chase sequences and stunts is your kind of thing. But then, you'll have to wait till July 2021, when the Mission Impossible: 7 is slated to be released.

A 1200 cc modern classic with similar design lines as Triumph's iconic Bonneville series, has reportedly been cleared for production.

Zongshen Cyclone RX6 Based On Norton 650 Nearing Completion

Image
While there still doesn't seem to be a buyer for iconic British brand Norton Motorcycles which went into administration in January this year, the firm's 650 cc parallel-twin seems to be finding life in China. While Norton apparently sold off the engine rights of its 961 engine to China's Jinglang just before the brand went into administration, the deal for the 650 cc engine was finalized way back in 2017 with Chinese giant Zongshen. The 650 cc parallel-twin engine was due to be used in Norton's Atlas and Superlight models, but now it looks like that engine platform will make its debut in a Zongshen motorcycle, called the Cyclone R6.
