I had to rewind it to be sure, but sure enough they had a buell ulysses chasing an audi. Jason Statham was in the commercial.

The bike crashed into another car and you could see the frame and front windshield very well. Also could see the tail section very clearly when it was spinning.

They had to film it 5 times . . . the Buell kept passing the Audi and they couldn't get it to loose grip in the corner.

Yup, saw it too. The wife goes "you've got to be kidding me, you recognized that bike from the blur that went by?"

This sucks. I can't get to any of them. I guess nobody wants the country of Iraq to see a Uly or Audi in action.

treefrog download and pay for anonamizer
Works great for those of us stationed overseas. It lets you go through a US proxy server for things like this and netflix

My girl thought I was sick in the head. I said "Babe come here...did you see that?" She's like yeah...it's the Transporter guy. No...babe, look. I rewind and pause. She says "Yeah...it's the transporter guy." Nevermind babe...

^^ My conversation went about the same way. I still can't believe I saw some Buells during the Super Bowl!

I guess I'm a lucky guy. My g/f said about that same time as I did "Isn't that a Buell?". I about pissed myself I was so excited. They actually used the bikes true sound too! None of that dubbed over high reving sound crap they usually do with bikes in commercials.

My g/f refused to watch the super bowl. So I went to the bar! There were only 3 people in there, so I was the only one who saw the Buells. Then, I went outside, climbed in my cage, went home, and had one more beer, while staring at my XB, cursing the snow outside.

This commercial is the only part of the super bowl I have seen and I am proud to admit it.

Did you see the Audi at it's maximum turn in with the guy on the Uly not even leaning in or off the seat?
