Video: Bajaj Motorcycle Dealer TV Commercial

Bajaj Dealer Madan Ad

#Advertisement #Bajaj #Motorcycle - There are big differences between motorcycle manufacturer's TV commercials. The differences between Bajaj and Harley-Davidson for example are legendary. It's got to do with corporate culture and their clients. All manufacturers have different cultures and advertisement philosophies.

But this stops with the dealers. It looks like motorcycle dealers the world over have the same technique for their TV advertisement; loud, in your face, as many items as they can in the shortest time.

It doesn't matter if you are a Harley dealer in Anaheim, California, a Kawasaki dealer in Alice Springs, Australia, or this Bajaj dealer in Kolkata, India. Have a look at the video, you'll see what I mean. You'll probably not understand a word that is being said, but if you put an English language dealer over this one, it'll remain the same...

Honda 750 Four Detailed Drawing
BMW Detailed Drawing
#Art #Drawing #Motorcycles - Normally, if you want to see minute details of a motorcycle, apart from standing there with a magnifying glass, the next best thing is a high density/resolution photo.

But one artist would disagree. I have no idea who this artist is, but if you look at the details and rendering he or she put in these drawings, it's incredible. You'd think it's a photo.

Here's a Honda 750 Four..........

#Dakar #Yamaha #Despres - Cyril Despres announced several months ago that he was leaving KTM, the brand that brought him multiple Dakar titles and off road fame, but he did not want to say what he was going to do next. Many people speculated that he would leave motorcycle rally racing and possibly go for four wheels.

But everyone was wrong. In a "Valentino Rossi" style move, Cyril Despres is going blue, Yamaha blue. He has nothing left to prove riding for KTM, and now he wants to show that it is him winning, not just the bike...........

Switzerland: VERY Strict Speeding Rules In Place

Jail Time For Biker
Switzerland flag
#Switzerland #Speeding - It used to be that speeding was a rich man's game in the land of bankers, cows and cheese, Switzerland. You got caught speeding on your motorcycle (or car), you get fined. That was it. As long as you paid the fine, you were fine.

But starting this year, on the 1st of January, the Swiss have gotten very serious about speeding. Now if you are going to speed, better start brushing on your jail etiquette, or at the minimum find a chauffeur who will drive your car for you since you're going to forfeit your license for a while. The new laws are bunched under the "Via Sicura" banner.

Going 40 kph faster than a speed limit posted for 30 kph (i.e. going more than twice as fast, so 70 kph), doing 100+ kph in a 50 kph zone, doing 140 kph in a 80 kph zone or doing 160 kph in a +80 kph zone will earn you at least 1 year jail time. You will also say good-bye to your car or motorcycle, forever.

You can lose your driving license for at least 2 years and at the most 10 years, for people who have been caught a second time, you can lose it forever. Jail time is a minimum of 1 year, while recidivists will discover a jail cellmate called Bubba for 4 years...........
