He famously rode his high-powered Ducati motorbike through the streets of London before his wedding to Kate last year, but now Prince William has been forced off the roads after the wiring in his beloved ­motorbike was attacked by mice.

Bike website visordown.com revealed that the Prince is now looking at a £6,000 repair bill to get his black 11SP98, which goes from 0 - 60 mph in 2.5 seconds, back on the road.

The bike was being stored in a garage at William's farmhouse in Wales while he was away in the Falkland Islands.
