Hi Sajjad1994 Can you please review my essay. Thanks in advance
The writer starts the article with the description of two motorcycle companies and highlights that one of the motorcycle companies has recently entered the market but has failed to attract customers despite the low cost of its motorcycle. The writer further iterates a view that the failure to attract customers might be due to the lack of exceptionally loud noise that motorcycle X, which has manufactured for over 70 years, makes. The writer goes on to express disagreement with this view by citing two reasons. One, the foreign cars are quieter than similar American cars, but still sell as well as American cars do. Secondly, Motorcycle X is advertised for its sleek lines and durability rather than it's noise. The writer's view might be is not based full information and the article lacks important information to be certain why the new motorcycle sells less than expected.
Firstly, the writer of this article compares the market for bike with the market of cars. By citing that the foreign cars,even though they are quieter, tend to sell as well as the American cars do, the writer assumes that the customer segment for cars and bikes are different. Even though the fundamental usage of both the vehicles, that is trasportation, is same, the uses of cars and bikes is very different due to changes in seating capacitty, storage, mileage and skill required for riding. It would be illogical to compare the bike market with the car market.
Secondly, we need to have more information regarding the differences in mileage,durability, any status symbol that bike carries and other factors for both the bikes to reach the conclusion that its only because of noisiness that motorcycle X sells better. For example If there is no status symbol of luxury that motorcycle X carries, and all other things are same as well then we can be sure that noisiness is the differentiating factor because of which new motorcycle sells less.
Thirdly, even though the advertisement of motorcycle X does not show any roaring sounds of the bike. The noisiness can be implied through other signs in the advertisement. If the ads have voiceovers with rock music, it may signify the rigidness that the bike can endure and thus development such a bike with exceptionally lound noise might be a notion embedded in the customer's mind.
Hence, the writer makes a few flawed assumptions while writing the article which makes it difficult for one to agree with the writer's conclusion. Unless and until, the writer provides further details about the new bike, clarifies that there are no implied meanings in the advertisements and gives a strong evidence how the market segment of cars and bikes is comparable, the argument remains flawed and conclusion remains uncertain.

The business section of the local newspaper is pondering over the reason why a foreign company is not able to attract the customers of a legacy and long term competitor in the market despite copying the product and pricing it less. The author wonders whether the lack of noise made by the copy is the reason but later dismisses it stating foreign cars sell as well as their American counterparts though they are quieter than the latter. The author infers from the television advertisements of motorcycle X that its unique selling points are durability and sleek lines, not the noisiness. However, there are several aspects the author has missed and the line of reasoning is faulty.
Firstly, the author uses the case of cars to determine customer preferences of motorcycles. There is no mention of any reason/evidence that those who prefer quiet cars will also prefer quiet motorcylces. The author misses the point that different types of vehicles will have different types of customers who will look for different things. What might appeal to one customer segment might not appeal to another. All these things are not taken into account by the argument. The argument instead chooses to focus on noisiness aspect alone.
Secondly, the television advertisements tell a different story about noisiness. Ads of motorcycle X have voice overs or rock music rather than engine roar on the sound track. This implies that the american company probably feels X makes too much of a noise and thus it might avert customers from buying the vehicle. However, the author interprets this wrongly that foreign company failed to attract customers beacuse the product does not make loud noise. Therefore, the foreign product lacks something when compared to motorcycle X.
Finally, The Ads highlight motorcycle X's durability and sleek lines. While the sleek lines can be copied if one copies the design properly, durability depends on how the product is made and with what materials. Since foreign company sells their motorcycle for a lower price, evidence on where they have done the cost cutting can give insights into what their appraoch and whether their approach affected the features (durability and sleek lines) that attract the customers the most.
Therefore, the author's reasoning still requires a holistic approach and thinking about the situation from different angles. Relevant evidence will help make this analysis easier and can strengthen the author's argument.
