|
| 2 September, 2010 - Video: Harley-Davidson Cigarettes Ad | Here's a special TV ad. It's from Harley-Davidson in Japan, and it's promoting Harley cigarettes, not motorcycles.

Problem was that there are very few ads out there, and all of them are made in Italy and then used in other countries.
Either Piaggio is hiding Aprilia from PR, or they hide their ads, or everyone knows the Italian motorcycle manufacturer.. and don't need no ads.
Anyway, here are 12 Aprilia motorcycle ads.
|
| 22 February, 2010 - Video: Harley-Davidson Forty-Eight Motorcycle Ad | Harley-Davidson have a new motorcycle, and therefore they have a new commercial.

The whole clip gives a surreal impression of lemmings... a scary sci-fi movie..
|
| 26 June, 2008 - Video: Motorola Pagers | This looks like a TV ad that has backfired. It's for Motorola Pagers, and in the clip, a guy is riding his motorcycle after a fight with his girlfriend.
When he receives a page forgiving him, it looks like he throws away the pager, and continues to ride.
|
| 6 June, 2008 - Video: Donkey’s Gear | Reasonably funny TV ad for motorcycle gear shop Donkey's Gear in Alaska.
As the name says, they even have a donkey...

It kind of works for me....
|

Good that they have sound proofing...
br> |

Nice...
|
| 3 March, 2008 - Video: Hungarian Gigamachine | Hungarian advertisement, so unless you speak the language, you'll not understand anything.

|
| 28 February, 2008 - Video: Kawasaki 750 Infomercial | Nice infomercial for the Kawasaki Z750.

|
| 19 February, 2008 - Video: USA DOT Safety Ad With Secretary Peters | Here's an interesting safety ad from the USA. It features none other than the head of the Department of Transportation (DOT), the agency ultimately responsible for motorcycle safety.

|
| 14 February, 2008 - Video: Suzuki TL1000R (1998) | Here's a Suzuki ad dating back to 1998. Apparently it didn't run (the ad) that much.
So, it's a novelty...
|
| 8 February, 2008 - Video: Harley-Davidson Merchandising: WTF? | Here's a Harley-Davidson TV ad that totally escapes me. I just do not understand what they're trying to say.

Nobody will pay attention to this ad, except bikers, and they're not the ones targeted.
|
| 15 November, 2007 - Video: Kawasaki "The Ultimate Trip" | Another oldie, a Kawasaki ad. Apparently this one was banned in the USA.

|

The interesting thing is that they don't even show a motorcycle! |
| 24 April, 2007 - Video: Nicky Hayden Ads | Usually celebrities "sell" themselves for TV ads, suing their name and face to promote products. MotoGP stars are no exception, neither is Nicky Hayden.
But his latest publicity for Michelin has got to be one of the worst I've seen. Here are a couple of his ads.
My advice: Fire his manager! |

Here's one of those TV advertisements for Royal Enfield motorcycles. Have a look, and tell me what you think. |
| 16 March, 2007 - Video: Suzuki Smash - Thai TV Ads | | Five TV ads from Suzuki Thailand selling their Smash scooter. Lots of "erotic" and humor, though not openly since the product is aimed at young kids. But I doubt that these ads would run in Europe or USA. |
| 14 March, 2007 - Video: Lufthansa German Airlines/Harley | | When you look first at this publicity, you'd think that it's a good Harley-Davidson motorcycle ad, but at the end, you'll see it's a Lufthansa German Airlines advertisement. Nice ad: |

Try that Mr. BMW or Honda !
|
| 4 October, 2006 - Video: Another Harley Ad - Cheater | | Here's a look at another Harley-Davidson motorcycles TV ad. Not what you'd expect if you're living in Europe or Asia. Harley seem to be promoting life-style and image, not motorcycles ! |
