Mine is a 2003 red, I saw 2005 red birds. Is it sold only in 2 colors in States???

Banshee · 05-29-2008, 12:24 AM

They only have 2 colours in any year, I bought it new last year. Also, different countries get different colours. Second hand you can get any colour made if someone is selling.

And check the location!

States indeed...

HHHmmmpphhhh, mutter, mutter...

WOL · 05-29-2008, 7:27 AM

Hi Guys,

Thought I'd better mention they also come in Titanium. Seems that we're somewhat trailing in the votes at the moment.

...jambo consider your self a lucky 50 anniversary edition blackbird owner...sold also in our contry as a limited anniversary edition 2005 model

GrahamcUK · 06-27-2008, 6:31 PM

Strek · 06-28-2008, 1:03 AM

GrahamcUK ... I couldn't agree more. I mean its called a BLACKbird for a reason.

Black06XX · 07-02-2008, 5:34 AM

Roger27 · 10-09-2008, 6:00 PM

Well mine is black which is what I wanted, which was good as that was the only colour available new when I bought it.

Catenaccio · 10-31-2008, 12:35 AM

Silver with 3 dimensional speckled speed splotches in yellow, green, red, and black all collected on the front fairing in a random pattern proving superior velocity of the bird over lesser bikes and other-colored birds. That, and the idjit behind the windscreen with the stupid grin hidden behind the dark smoked visor.

Black today, got a hankering to go titanium.

VikingBird · 12-02-2008, 4:16 PM

[quote=Strek;56021]GrahamcUK ... I couldn't agree more. I mean its called a BLACKbird for a reason.[/quoteCouldn´t agree more!!!! If if was supposed to be Blue i think the model would have been named BLUEbird like Nissan did with one of their models in the eightees, but who wantrs to have a bike named after a cage????? OR what about a redbird, a yellowbird, a splatter bird, a graphic ebay bird????

]it has to be black if it is a Blackbird like you say!!!!!!!

VikingBird.. I agree.

jclaude · 12-13-2008, 7:35 PM

what a shame it should come in pink

ajmac · 12-22-2008, 6:56 PM

Have to be BLACK!!!...hence "BLACK"bird. Although, just so I can contradict myself, the '07' silver/grey birds are something else..
