I believe the video you're talking about is the one produced in 1985 by
Coast Community College District for a PBS Marketing class. The title
of the episode is "Leader of the Pack - A Case Study in Pricing" It
opens up with Jay Gleason doing a burnout on a rotating platform during
a product introduction. It talks about the design and marketing of the
bike. It end with a salesman telling a customer that the price of the
bike is $5299.00. Man, would I love to buy an out of the crate '85 Vmax
for that price today!
The guy you want to get a hold of is, Dennis Barch,
[EMAIL PROTECTED] He purchased the video from PBS and had made
copies for us in the past. It's a must have.
Hope this helps,
