Husqvarna FE 450 used in ‘Jason Bourne’ now at National Motor Museum in UK

MANILA: The 2015 Husqvarna FE 450 that Matt Damon used in the action-thriller film Jason Bourne is currently displayed at the National Motor Museum, Beaulieu in the United Kingdom.

In the film, the bike was used as a Greek police motorcycle, modified with front blue police lights and rear carrying case and pannier with Greek police decals.

Damon, who played the title role, rode the motorcycle in the scene where Bourne fought the police and “The Asset” played by Vincel Cassel, before saving Nicky played by Julia Stiles.

The scenes involving the motorcycle were filmed in the island of Tenerife in Spain in 2015 for the movie that premiered in 2016.

Gordon Grant, the owner of this FE 450, loaned the motorcycle to the museum to include it in Beaulieu’s On-Screen Cars exhibition.

“Our fine collection of vehicles at the museum includes some that have starred in television and film – from the mini driven by Mr. Bean to the iconic Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. The Jason Bourne bike is the first action-thriller film star on two wheels, and it’s great to have it included in the On-Screen Cars exhibition at Beaulieu,” National Motor Museum Vehicles and Research Curator Patrick Collins stated.
