Pretty well done regardless. The thing I love about my miata is that it’s not electronic in any way. It’s pure sports car. I guess this might appeal to some people.

and a lot of squids.

I can’t say I disagree with the point of the commercial. It is all about the riding and all those electronics just take away from the thrill of riding. Yes, and that is coming from the electronics king… lol.

Just wanted to point out I have nothing against Gixxers. Just find this ad interesting, especially when they eventually have a version with TC and ABS; how will they spin it then? :rofl
