This 2001 Ducati 996s is the superbike in the Batman Garage collection from the years The Matrix put a red 996 on screen. It is the owner's bike, not a film prop. The engine is Ducati's 996 cc 90-degree L-twin with desmodromic valve gear — the road specification that sat under the single-sided swingarm and the trellis frame everyone still recognises.

The gallery above is this motorcycle, photographed in the Dark Knight garage. Close-ups of the tank, the 996 badge and the nose sit with the full three-quarter views. Credit on the frames is the collection: Image: Batman Garage. The specification table underneath is this 996s, not a brochure average.
It is listed at the end of Cars with the rest of the two-wheel collection. A free 5K wallpaper of the same bike is on Downloads.
