Kawasaki Promotion to culminate with unprecedented give-away of 820 vehicles
 

It's not over yet!!



Giant consumer promotion offers several ways to win.



IRVINE, Calif. (June 24, 2011)---The huge “Good Times Sales Event” promotion launched by Kawasaki in April has reached the half-way point and the company said that more than 3.2 million game pieces will have been distributed to consumers by the end of July. Following the event’s July 31st conclusion, each of the 820 participating Kawasaki dealers will be giving away a new Kawasaki motorcycle or ATV.

Chris Brull, Kawasaki’s director of marketing, said “this multi-tiered program represents one of the largest promotional outreach campaigns the company has undertaken, and the event is by far the largest vehicle giveaway in Kawasaki’s history.” National television spots have been running on ESPN/ESPN2, SPEED, Fuel TV, National Geographic TV, and History Channel, in addition to direct promotions through the company’s website, direct mail and the network of independent Kawasaki dealers.

It combines instant win opportunities for consumers, including four Grand Prize giveaways of 2011 Kawasaki Vulcan® 1700™ Vaquero cruisers (or a different Kawasaki vehicle of the players choice). Other “Good Times Sales Event” prizes include $250 off any Kawasaki vehicle over 249cc, 15 percent off any Kawasaki accessory item, or 10 percent off dealer service. Additionally, more than 115,000 certificates for free Green Day music downloads and Monster Energy Drink buy-one-get-one-free coupons will be given away.

However, as Brull pointed out, the most unique component of the promotion is the sheer number of units that will be given away through the 820 participating Kawasaki dealers, with each of them holding post-event drawings for a new 2011 Ninja 250R sportbike or a Bayou 250 ATV. “This is a giant undertaking which will impact a lot of enthusiasts in a very positive way,” added Brull.

To participate, holders of a “Ticket to Win” distributed through direct mail, dealer contact, or requested at Good Times Sales Event, will need to bring their ticket to a participating local dealer to have it read by an in-store decoder which will light-up to reveal their prize. Once they have processed their Ticket to Win in-store, players may also register for that dealer’s individual 2011 Ninja 250R sportbike or Bayou 250 ATV giveaway.

The company will announce all winners in August.

Thanks for the tip. I just entered. The wife has been wanting a Ninja 250, and a free one would be awesome.

Awesome! Good luck!

Fuck... I have two on my desk at work... I need to get those in...

I have one I need to try. Closest Kawi dealer is not close by though

did mine already.
wouldn"t mind a new 250. :dribble:

Closest dealer is an hour away, but I'll make the ride out there. Thanks for the heads up!

odd that the local shop isn't listed on the site. but might be worth the 45min drive to the nearest listed one.

You may want to call them. I am not sure if this is dependent on dealer participation or not. Unless you are just looking for an excuse to go for a ride, that's cool too. :D

ehh the local shop is fucking shitty anyways... but I'm actually looking hard at the KLR650

Just sent in for mine.

I just signed up to received two more entries... one for me... one for ONSSP... if it wasn't raining buckets yesterday on my way home, I'd have stopped and turned in the two I already have...

My nephew wants to get a bike (19 year old college student) so I had him sign up.

Got a ticket coming my way. Thankfully the dealership in town is on the list.

And... yet another deal to add to the existing ones, but only until Wednesday. Just found out about this one.

I'd love a new Ninja 250.

I've got a hardon for the Vaquero, but I'd love to win the Ninja just the same for ONSSP.

The new 250 is going to go to a dealer in southern CA...where the Kawi headquarters are located.

All of you FL,AL,TX,NJ,TN,SC,NC blah blah blah blah states aren't going to win shit.

lol

I got 15% off.


"each of the 820 participating Kawasaki dealers will be giving away a new Kawasaki motorcycle or ATV."

Wife and I rode out to the local dealer to check my ticket today, but they were closed by the time we showed up. Have to try again later in the week. I did enter for her after we got home, so she has a ticket coming too.

Honsetly, I would dig the shit out of that Vaquero, but the wife wants a 250 or something similar. If I win something with 2 wheels, I'll be happy.

If I wasn't there to see it myself, I wouldn't believe it...

When I made ride plans for today with some friends, one guy said that he had to be at Seminole Powersports by 3pm, because he had gotten a message from someone telling him he was a finalist in the GTSE. Until he said that I wasn't even aware he entered this contest. But ok fine, I figured we'd do the local loop, then blast over to the dealer and see what that's all about, look at the new bikes and drool on some of them, watch someone else win and then leave.

Turns out he did win! It was a 250 Bayou (an ATV), but he does have the option of trading it towards something else if he chooses. Not sure what he'll do but he looked pretty pleased with winning the Bayou. I would too. :D

Congrats Chuck!

I didn't win... Or at least I don't think so... How was he contacted?

I believe he said he got a call, then they mailed him some papers that had to be signed and returned.

My stub is for 15% off accessories and shit.

I got an energy drink. ghey
