Unlucky bike fanatic Brad Pitt's vintage motorcycle lets him down again

Regular guy Brad Pitt likes nothing more than to tool around town on one of his collection of vintage motorbikes.

But the Inglorious Basterds star appears to be somewhat unlucky with the two-wheeled speed machines, as he broke down again while on his way to a film set in Los Angeles.

The 46-year-old actor's Ducati bike failed to start. However, he didn't have to look too far for assistance - calling for help from his bodyguard.

Clearly the actor is not that great at getting his hands dirty fixing his prized machines.

Brad was forced to call for help, and a dark SUV arrived and whisked him away leaving his flunky to deal with the roadside drama.

This is the latest in a string of bike related mishaps for the father of six.

Hands on: Pitt stands back as his driver takes a look...

Last July the embarrassed actor was forced to hitch a lift with a member of the paparazzi when he found himself stranded in a residential area.

And in October he was thrown off one of his custom motorbikes seconds before confronting a paparazzo in downtown Los Angeles.

Pitt was weaving through busy traffic when the eager photographer drove his Toyota Camry too close to the star.

The actor lost his balance while swerving to avoid the car and clipped the wing mirror of a parked vehicle.

In an interview he revealed that he uses them to escape the attentions of the paparazzi.

Brandishing a motorcycle helmet, he told a reporter at W magazine: 'This is my anonymity. With it, I’m just another a***hole on the streets.'

Pitt's obsession with motorbikes has seen him build a massive collection including a Ducati Desmosedici RR and a Monster 696.

Meanwhile, Pitt's partner was seen arriving home at Los Angeles International airport with two of their three daughters, Shiloh, and Zahara.
