You could send MikeMcgee a message since his wife is in the Kawasaki Marketing department. I have yet to figure out Kawasaki's marketing. I thought the 2011 ticket to ride event that brought bikes all throughout the country helped them reach record sales, and then they went and did some stupid event in New York City.

I don't buy anything I can't ride first. If I have to wait for a used bike to give a bike a try, I will end up buying a used bike.

I did the 2011 and 2012 Ticket to Ride in Minneapolis and thought it was a perfect way to market their bikes. Both years I rode the Voyager 1700 and I now own one. Was disappointed when they discontinued that program. I know 2016 is still a ways away, but am curious if they are going to promote their product with special events. I noticed a lot of their shirts this year have "1966" on them, so logic would say they should do big events for the anniversary. time will tell.
