They would have been much better off just putting it up on their website or doing it at their US headquarters. I doubt anyone in that crowd is actually going to buy one of those bikes. They all looked like they were just there for free t-shirts.
For less money, Kawasaki could have announced "Ninja's invade Newyork..." had a fleet of Ninja 300's and 636's roaming the streets of New York. A few cameras and GoPro's to watch people's reactions as the bikes rode by, maybe interview some hippies on the streets about how cool the new bikes look, then put together a short vid to display on Kawasaki's website and make a few commercials out of it.
