There's some good ones there Tony. Here's a few more...

00s: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u-bcGkkPz0c

90s: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OjyTNQ1mJu0

80s: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1luX3Cda5oc

70s: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQVuOG8ctM0


I saw one for Kawasaki in the early 90s. A guy arranges a date with a girl, and sets off on his bike (Zephyr I think). Cut to scenes of him riding twisties etc. Then next scene he's in a phone box in the middle of nowhere, apologising to the girl, saying the bike wouldn't start. I really liked the ad, but I've never seen it since.

Always liked this one! Not exactly sure what it's advertising though?

it's a road safety campaign MX where anything you could do to increase your visibility to other road users was encouraged ;)

Remember the early Suzuki DR250 ad with Beetle Bailey? THAT was a ripper!
Destined to a life behind bars. A garage full of KTM's and a 73 CR 250M Honda....H7 250 Monty will be at Harrow!

I have the ad in a mag somewhere but, yeah I remember the tv commercial well..the sarge in the jeep and Beetle flying high over the top on the DR250..the landing would have been real interesting but it wasn't shown :o  :D
