The three national ads are “Lunch” featuring the BMW K1600GT and K1600GTL, “Cowboy Coffee” featuring BMW’s R1200GS and the F800GS, and “Boots” featuring the S1000RR, K1300S and R1200R.

“The ‘Feed Your Restless’ campaign is designed to appeal to the heart and soul of motorcyclists and to expand brand awareness and interest in BMW motorcycles in a fresh dynamic way,” says Todd Andersen, Marketing Manager, BMW Motorrad USA. “We understand motorcyclists are a unique consumer. They possess a restlessness in their DNA – an undeniable need to jump in the saddle, throw caution to wind and feel the freedom of riding. These commercials will resonate with that restlessness to ride.”
The ads will begin airing March 1 on the following programs (all times EST):
ESPN, NBA game, 8- 10:30p ESPN News, SportsCenter, 7:30-8p Discovery, Bering Sea Gold, 10-11p Velocity, American Hot Rod , 8-10p History, American Pickers, 8-10p H2, America Unearthed, 10-11p“Lunch”
