I heard that and thought it was me.

Thought WTF. Kind of like when they said the new KXF had traction control but quickly changed the commercial.

I can not believe they have not fixed that yet and continue to air the commercial. It has been that way for at least a month and has been pointed out many times. Emig sits in a TV truck every week, I am sure someone could have him spend 5 secs and record him talking into the mic so the Kawi ad man could do a minor edit to the commercials audio track.

Really? I hadn't heard it or seen it mentioned before. I must have missed it. No biggie though.....just thought it was a little funny. But if it's been about a month.......sounds like someone is dropping the ball.

While you are reading my post right now, you will only see the the word "the" one time. See how that works? Well some of you may have fell for it. Point being, the first couple times I saw the ad, I assumed I heard 449cc, but then a while back I was like did he say 499cc? Rewinded the DVR and sure enough! Funny how the mind fills in the blanks and makes assumptions without us knowing.

You said "the" a total of 4 times.

I asked Jeff about it a while back. He said they did several video takes, went back and reviewed them, and in all of those he said 449cc. Then at the end of the day, he did a voiceover for it, and the 499 was in there.

Yeah, he was shaking his head telling the story, both that he did it, and that no one else had caught it.

Mistakes happen.

Actually 7. But the two back to back you counted as one. Not sure how you arrived at 4.
