"to raise awareness of events in the upcoming big bike"

Dämn! I thought it was going to say: "to raise awareness of fitting silencers that work and to not annoy everyone living within a 500m radius as you roar home at 3am with your friend for the night as pillion."

Or something to that effect.

Maybe I lived in Patong for too long.
