Description
Full color 8″ x 10 3/4″ ad that tells a story about how much owning a Yamaha can take over your life and gives an option to prevent a catastrophic ending to your story. The headline asks “Do you, Harold Hotdog, take this motorcycle…” and shows a picture of a man trying to carry a Yamaha into a hotel while the bellboy looks back with a look of concern. The text tells the story about how Harry bought a RD 350 and spent far too much time riding it to his wife’s dismay. Harriet, his wife, looked into getting her own Yamaha and took the Yamaha Learn to Ride Safety Program for Women. Harry was too tied up in his own motorcycle to realize what she was saying and he just rode off in the middle of the conversation. Harriet took off and Harry married his RD 350 but rumors seem to indicate that the union was not completely happy. In the bottom right hand corner are four bikes that are labeled “Yamaha Models for Women” and they include the LT 3 100 Enduro, the RD 250, the AT 3 125 and the RD 60.
