Creative Harley Davidson's Advertising Campaign

You ever heard someone say,” So what’s the big deal about a bike?” Well yes there’s many like them. But we know what we’re talking about. Yes, the beautiful bodied Harley-Davidson motorcycles. We’ll give you enough leeway to address your best friend on wheels as ‘Harleys.’

In true biker style, get the feel of the real thing. This mean-machine can be heard from a long distance away. Yes we all know how difficult it is to make your two-wheeler sound like a Harley even after multiple modifications, to imitate the look is as difficult.

The Harley-Davidson Motor Company in Wisconsin, United States manufactures them. This heavy-duty bike is even more popular because of the fad of customizing your Harley. As such, though similar in capacity, most look different from each other. They can be customized just the way owners like them to be. So if it’s a chopper you want, it’s yours. And yes there’s a high price to be paid for the makeover. If you happen to be the proud owner of one of these, you certainly belong to the Harley community. Come join us.

Chrysler will be selling the original Tomahawk concept and nine replicas through Neiman Marcus, for up to $555,000 each. The motorcycles cannot be licensed, so they cannot be legally driven on public roads. A Chrysler spokesman told Reuters they were meant as rolling sculptures.
Rumors had the Tomahawk selling for under $200,000, most likely at a loss or breakeven price, for publicity purposes - but still fully drivable. Wolfgang Bernhard, Chrysler's not p articularly respected first mate, was said to be enthusiastic about that project, so much so that hundreds were projected to be built at under $200,000 each. They reportedly cost Chrysler over $100,000 to build (admittedly the work is outsourced).
The Dodge Tomahawk can reach 60 miles an hour in about 2.5 seconds, and has a theoretical top speed of nearly 400 mph. Each pair of wheels is separated by a few inch es and each wheel has an independent suspension. Bernhard said four wheels were necessary to handle the power from the engine.
The Tomahawk remains on display at auto shows - thou gh well out of reach of
the general public, elevated on a special display.

Honda CBR

The Honda CBR models are a series of sport oriented motorbikes. Several of which (400RR, 600RR, 900RR, and 1000RR) are marketed as Race Replica, hence the suffix "RR" after the engine size designation. All CBR motorbikes have inline engines (as compared to the V engines in the VT, VTR and VF/VFR series). Less sporting models with inline engines make up the CB Series. [source]
