It just looks like a leather jacket. The closest Ducati jacket I found what the Ducati Legend jacket.

if its a jacket that is in a movie i would put money on it that it is a belstaff jacket.

they seem to get their product placement in EVERY movie for some reason.  why? i have no idea.

Looks like my old Bates jacket.  Recently saw an ad in GQ for some designer brand leather jackets and one looked a lot like that.

looks like belstaff is not doing the classic mootorcycle jacket but a tron inspired "on the grid" style jacket.

but i wouldn't doublt that they also made the classic motorcycle jacke that you see both younger flynns wear in the movie at some later point in time.

the one thing i will say is that belstaff overall does make some really sharp looking leather jackets. the one from the "wanted" movie that main guy wears is a nice classic motorcycle jacket that belstaff made.

and the one from war of the world/batman returns/and practically every other movie where there is a nice jacket in it.

the website has never worked, and yes he died.  Another guy took over his company, and produced the jacket for the movie tron.  If you go to facebook and search for tony nowak, you can talk to the guy about making you one he still has all the patterns.  This is the same guy/company that made the terminator jackets as well as indiana jones.
