Should I be ashamed?

The following pictures are DIRECTLY from I believe the most recent road racing. First is KTM's ad:

Following KTM's ad is Ducati's:

WTFFFFFFFFF!

It's advertising bullshit on both pages. How many races has the RC8 won and how many championships has Nicky won on Ducatis wearing Ducati apparel? No offense to either company. I like both... and Nicky. Just advertising BS... so what's different? Certainly no need to feel ashamed.

Meh...like said above, it's just advertising.

love that KTM! They have one in an Akrapovic paint scheme at Ducati Scottsdale.

You should be ....... ashamed.

oranges and apples

I've met you in person. You should be ashamed, but not about the advertisement.

hackers2r · August 23, 2010, 12:53:46 PM

^LOL. In any case, I guess I was referring to the fact that the sole advertisement in the magazine for Ducati was related to their apparel! Doesn't make any sense to me. Are their clothes more important than their bikes now? Oh well. Don't know who in the hell approved this.

junior varsity · August 23, 2010, 12:58:29 PM

I don't see how its more important - they are featuring a world champion rider, the bikes are implied.

They probably make more money in t-shits than with the bikes.

At least the Boutique shops (that copied Harley Davidson) do.
