Brad Pitt is in the market for a new motorcycle.

The star’s latest film, Inglourious Basterds, directed by Quentin Tarantino, premiered in Tokyo on Wednesday, and Brad took the opportunity to tell reporters that he trashed his favorite bike while trying to escape a few overzealous photographers.

Brad, a motorcycle aficionado, was involved in a minor accident in Los Angeles last month after a paparazzo reportedly cut him off in traffic. While he’s in Tokyo he will be looking for a replacement.

“I had a little mishap,” Brad said. “No injuries, except my ego. I was trying to get away from some paparazzi and instead gave them a good story. It was my favorite bike, so that is really sad. I will definitely be looking at motorcycles,” he said. “You’ve got some of the best builders right here.”
