It's been running in SA for a couple of month's now. It's a good message to rider's ( the hot shot's won't get it ).The trouble is, the car driving public already think, we ALL ride like the bloke's in the clip & deserve what we get . We want them to SEE us not hate us .

Bloody clever ad that!!!!!

[Ward P]

Good ad. I like it. I can see the point about car drivers thinking that all bike riders ride like that - unfortunately some do!
But the target market here is the bike riders, and I for one can see the point. (Not to mention some great spills that all the riders would have walked away from)

[highwaybruiser]

That's brilliant! Very well put together, and certainly gets the message across IMO. Haven't seen it here in NSW yet, but I really don't watch that much telly. Unfortunately, when a good ad like that comes out there's usually some softc**k civil libertarian that finds offence and gets the ad pulled off air... and then wonders why our world is turning to shite!

Excellent concept...... makes you think,
I've been in the saddle for close to 35 years mostly injury and damage free.
Until a english language challenged immigrant decided to do a three point turn on a blind double white lined left hand sweeper
and stop right in the middle of the road!
i regard this as a freak accident....and am rebuilding my 81 Kat as we speak, got back on a bike (with the help of pain killers) a GSX1400 for a couple of months to get my confidence back and bought my '09 Busa.
Many have regarded me as stupid,got a death wish etc.
All i can say is I feel sorry for them, as once you get bikes in ya blood they're there for good!
Now 6500k's on the 'Busa and I'm loving every meter of it.......heres to many many more!
take care guys!

Isn't it funny that when you have a bike accident and replace the damaged bike with a new/newer bike, people ( mostly car drivers) think you're mental, but when they have a car accident and get a new car they think nothing of it!

Thats one of the best Ads Ive seen for awhile...

Sort of makes you cringe a little when you see the park benches and trees, and sort of a good wake up call for road be racer boys
