Just wondering how many bikers make an effort to support sponsors involved motorcycle racing ?

I remember I switched to Lucky Strike fags because of Kevin Swantz (even though they were shit) Confused

would it sway your decision to buy an acer computer ? or even a FIAT car ???

We have a fiat, although I wish we didn't as I don't want to be associated with Rossi.

I buy Monster and actively avoid Airwaves, so yeah I spose so.

I like bridgestones cus I've always had them...

My head doesn't fit Arai either.

Although some of the bikes look nice, I'm not keen on some sponsors...

Sad but true i still smoke Luckies when I can and I know there aren't any real cigarette sponsors in motorsport anymore I do tend to choose ones that have sponsored a team at some point...not that it narrows it down much! Wink

I own a fiat and an pair of Acers...damn, i'm more suggestable than I thought! (I bought them a long time ago mind..)

They get away with it because Rizla on it's own won't kill you.

Should've guessed that... Rolling Eyes

Makes me wonder whether anyone will ban them in the future though, hope they don't but I have a feeling they might somehow.

I'm not sure this advertising works. I've been watching bike racing since the early 80's. I dont smoke so the tobacco adverts didn't work. I dont own a Fiat, an acer, a xerox machine and most certainly not a wudy.
I dont drink monster, redbull or any other energy drink for that matter, although I do quite like lucozade.

Moonie · World Chat Champion Joined: 18 Feb 2008 Karma :

Ah but are you in the market for any of those anyways?

Say you like Ducatis, and you want some gum, forgetting that it tastes like fire for a sec, you'd be better off gettiogn Airwaves because more money goes to Ducati, or at least the company helping suppport them.

Which is precisely why I don't buy airwaves Razz

But if you don't want a photocopier, laptop, shitty car that breaks all the time or an energy drink then obviously you wouldn't buy one just for the sakes of it.

I can honestly say it does not affect me in the slightest.
