1966 BRIDGESTONE 175 Genuine Vintage Ad ~ Dual Twin 2-Stroke
1966 Bridgestone 175 original vintage advertisement.
DESCRIPTION:
Harry lost a few friends when he bought his Bridgestone 175.
The first to desert Harry were the guys at the gas station. One day Harry mentioned he gets up to 100 miles to a gallon with his new Bridgestone 175 and that tore it.
Next to go was Charlie down the block. Charlie owns that big 250cc machine with all the chrome. Last week, Harry “buried" him at the stoplight. He hasn’t spoken to Harry since. (A quarter of a mile well under 18 seconds was too much for old Charlie.)
To hear Harry tell it, it takes real skill to get this kind of economy and performance out of a motorcycle. We like to think he gets a lit lie help from his new Bridgestone 175. It’s powered by the world’s only production dual rotary valve, dual carburetor engine with metered oil injection, eliminating the need to premix oil and gas.
It pained Harry to lose a few friends until he and his Bridgestone started making a few new ones — like Joanie, Barbara, Sandy, Jean, and Sue.
