Mayes C. Rubeo is Costume Designer on this sci-fi movie, although John Carter's loincloth and chest-plate outfit reminds me a bit of Jake Gyllenhaal's Prince of Persia costume (but maybe that's just the brown leather and sandy film location).

Ghost Rider 2 motorcycle installation at the Petersen Automotive Museum in L.A...

Following on from my discovery of the motorcycle I believe that was used by Idris Elba in the Spirit of Vengeance at the ArcLight Pasadena cinema, driving past the Petersen Automotive Museum in L.A. today I glanced up and saw Ghost Rider's actual infernal motorcycle on display.

In the past the museum has also showcased the Black Beauty car from The Green Hornet movie remake with a similar installation, so I assume this is one of the actual motorbikes used in the movie or at the very least a fantastically detailed replica for promotional purposes.

You have to agree the detail of the supernatural superhero's demonically altered ride is pretty cool and was photographed on February 23, 2012.

Plus if you like motorbikes, you'll also love this very cool skeleton motorcycle that was on display at the Petersen Automotive Museum in 2010.

Nicholas Cage returns for a second outing as 'Johnny Blaze' and his demonic anti-hero alter ego, but I don't believe this is his ride (even though the exhibit signage says it is).

I've not seen the movie yet (it's had dire reviews), but from various trailers and publicity shots it looks more like the motorcycle ridden by Idris Elba as warrior monk, 'Moreau', in the movie.
