because he is an actor he needs to appeal to the poor.
It's not about appealing to the poor. You're starting to look for reasons to justify your remark.
You shouldn't play into the belief by spreading misinformation that motorcycles are for the poor just because some well to do poser said so.
Don't you know that there's a Ducati club of the Philippines. There's also a bunch of guys that tour the country in their expensive touring motorcyles and then theres the motorcycle club called Mad Dog Motorcylcle Club of the Philippines:

Under the theme “One Philippines” the three-day event seeks to harness the growing number of motorcycle riders in the country to promote road safety as well as a renewed sense of eco-consciousness and patriotism.
Recognizing the important role of motorcycles as a mode of transportation for millions of Filipinos, President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo has issued Proclamation Order 1720 declaring May 4-10, 2009, as Philippine Motorcyclists Week. The proclamation also directed the Department of Transportation and Communication (DOTC) to coordinate the observance of Philippine Motorcyclists Week.

Pres. Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo is expected to flag off this historic ride, which will bring together motorcycle clubs and enthusiasts from all walks of life and from all over the country.
The 15th National Convention, with the theme “One Philippines” will be held at the Baguio Convention Center from May 8-10. About 1,500 delegates representing the federation’s member-clubs from all over the country are expected to attend.
