That add just reinforces the myth that all honda riders are gay....oops

[Bren]

Honda is surely playing up to it's reputation.....That ad, my friends, is surely a GAYFEST!

Even the name...Imagine if you will at a bar...

First biker..."What do you ride"
Second biker..."I Ride a Hunk"
First biker with a rude leer..."Wanna come back to my pad"

Its either a shame or typical that the rider of the Hunk walked into The Blue Oyster Bar...

Yes, that bike IS a Gayfest!


Oh, Hero Honda? WTF....
From Wikipedia they are based in India....
And the Hunk....who can call 150cc as muscle???

Note that this is a bike from Hero Honda (India), not Honda as such. Hero Honda is a joint venture between Honda Japan and the Hero Group, they've been around since the mid 80's and are in fact the largest manufacturer of motorcycles in the world, based on volume sales p.a. by a single company. Apparently someone buys a Hero Splendor (their top selling model) every 30 seconds! :gob:
150cc is basically a superbike in India.... :lol:


Still, facts aside.........the bike and the advert (not to mention the company name) ooze gayness! :rofl:

[Madness]

I think the Moron Few should do a ride review. Fuck that's ghey.

[ukusa]

That is farkin funny, such a dramatic ad. That guy could do voice overs for TV2.

[sosman]

Yes one would needs muscles to throw it off a cliff :lol:
but then again it is 150cc of pure grunt!

[Gubb]

"Rugged tubeless tyres"

Fuck me, I'm sold right there buddy.

[Suntoucher]

Bold new muffler cover

I was thinking it look compressed, now I understand after hearing it's 150cc.

[Conquiztador]

But but.... (sorry re punt) it is all red! And has an agressive visor!

[awayatc]

would you like naan with that........?

[hellokitty]

It looks like a kids bike? 150cc? That is a seriously gay ad with all that muscle flexing.
Obviously that is cool in India :blink:

[Bender]

Just think, on that large and dusty continent there will be 500,000 weedy little blokes who seriously think that buying this bike will be the equivalent off that bullpress thing they used to sell here, that enabled you to go round kicking sand in peoples' faces.

The daft scrotes will see that ad in the cinemas while they are watching bollywood movies, buy it and then expect to pull the ladies like crazy. Because the poor bastards are so repressed they don't know any better.

See how it fits? Let's face it, the number of bikes sold by Hero proves they are "hitting" their target market - daft young scrotes who think this is just what they need for de ladies.

[schrodingers cat]

I feel a little sick now. Kind of soiled

[John_H]

They can do the most amazing stunts with the right rider. Check this out for proof! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tVWjIJc_54U&feature=related the man is like the reincarnation of Evel Knievel!

....very high tech for the sub-continent where the next best option is a new Royal Enfield..a fast donkey...a 45 year old step thru...or a slow donkey....like to see anyone on a supersport or a liter of muscle whooping it up in Delhi or out in the wops where there aint much seal...we are a privileged lot....

That looks like it might be an effective ad for the country/culture that it was created for. In NZ learners start on a 250cc bike and then move to something around 600 - 800cc before maybe going on to 1 litre + bikes. To us a 150cc bike seems like a joke and over here it would be sold as an economical commuter bike or learner bike (competing with the Scorpio) - definitely wouldn't want to use a name like 'Hunk' for a 150cc bike in this country!

I'm sure that some marketing in NZ would be humorous to people in some other countries.
