I remember an add where a Road Racer, Ross King was doing a mono on a MKIII Kawasaki 500, I was totally consumed by motorbikes at that time and it was rare that you would see them in anything on the TV back then and being a kid every time it came on I'll yell out, "Ross King", only one TV per house back then, I have no idea what the ad was for but it was way cool back then.

What about some old ads with bikes in it?

One for BP 10/10 fuel, filmed at Wallan.

One for Nugget boot polish, MX125 Yam wheelying out of the barn.

One for Suzuki all models......  How did the song go?.....

Pre VMX and an NZ ad but then that place is just another state of Aust isn't it?

My favorite ad of the 70's
