Re: Colour Of Your 'Bird ? .... Had To Be Polled !

As you can all see from the poll responses BLACK is the favorite. Black is also the fastest. So you have the best looking color. The most popular color. The fastest color and I have a TRUE BLACKbird.

Yeah....I have to ask the question.....

IF black is so good, how come it only rates joint 7th place in the poll?

I mean like "7th"....not even in the points in a race.......a day of rest (kinda suits the Black's sedantry pace)......a bottle of 7UP probably has more get up and go........The atomic number of nitrogen, an inert gas, much like a Black bike is inert.......the Queens to Times Square subway (probably faster).....

Need I continue

Could not talk the pillion onto the previous bike but she even came to the north of the state with me (by train) to ride the blackbird home.
She fell in love with the BLUE BULLET the moment I did!!!

Re: Colour Of Your 'Bird ? .... Had To Be Polled !

I just noticed that someone else has voted for Black. It's now up to Sixth.

6....
...as in 6 Million Dollar Man, similiar amount needed to make a Black one as fast as a BLUE bike.
...as in the number of dots in a braille cell. Well, you must be visually impaired to have knowingly picked a black one. (Buying in a mine is NOT a mitigating circumstance!)
...the name for the smallest group of Cub Scouts. Appropriate as the Black bike is IDEAL for training before graduating to the Ultimate BLUE bike.
...as in "Feet Under", need I say more?
...the International Maritime Flag for 6 is BLUE and White. Take the hint, re-spray!!

Funny that they haven't commented yet, must be the shame of having bought a slow-bird!!

AIGF!!

Re: Colour Of Your 'Bird ? .... Had To Be Polled !



I am very dissapointed in everyone here. I had such strong trust in you!

I bought ten rattle cans of gloss black and some black sharpie markers. After a few hours of huffing paint fumes, BAMBAM is black.

I took him out for a spin with GREAT expectations of speed but was totally let down. It is not a nano second faster than it was when it was titanium.!

Thats the LAST time i listen to anything you guys post on this site.:pi ssed2:

THANKS A LOT!!!
