Although Steve McQueen wore a Barbour Jacket in the famous 1964 race he rode in East Germany, the Belstaff Trialmaster is what he normally rode when biking. I guess everyone wants to own a piece of the King of Cool.
“During the famous motorcycle chase in The Great Escape, director John Sturges allowed McQueen to ride (in disguise) as one of the pursuing German soldiers motorcyclists, so that in the final sequence, through the magic of editing, McQueen is actually chasing himself.”
