It could also have something to do with you living in the "gay bike only" section of Australia. I dunno, just a hunch.

Thats more than likely why you think you are fast, and still leaning on the lamp post, wishing you could move,

You have square tyres from all the slabs you ride, where you are, The only curves you see are the ones where you do U turns.
Riding in a straight line does not constitute riding, even on the slowest black one.

NOW THIS IS SO TRUE.

THE TRUE BLACKbird is the fastest.

Re: How come bike color affect its top speed ?

Hey Dracki
What about some guff on the SP. I love the the look of this bike and would like to add a twin as a stable mate to the Bird. Whatever our colors they are all a bit bland, but make up for it performance wise. But the SP is one of Honda's real head turners in my opinion. What's it go like?

Re: How come bike color affect its top speed ?

take 2 pills,add a nip of the finest scotch you can buy,remove you heart & ware your last weeks nickers,then take a Blackbird & strip 60kg's & blend with an old 500cc 2stroker moto gp racer & you got something similar but still not as good, all these lads here don't realise that 2 pistons are better then 4, EVERYWERE.
TOP SPEED
CORNERING
& i'de even say quater mile

Re: How come bike color affect its top speed ?

Unfortunately none for sale down here only glimpsed a couple on my travels, so it might be a cheap flight to Melbourne & a ferry back. Having said that not many ads on the mainland either, owners must like them.

We still have bends in the roads,they are just not as twisty as other places.That is why I got a BLACKbird instead of a fireblade.But I tell you what,it sure is good not to have to worry about speed cameras when we are out on the highway.SO you can have your tight bendy roads where you have to worry about possums and shit running out of the bushes along the roadside and the cops hiding behind the trees ready to bust you for doing 5 ks above the limit,and we will have our roads where we can see of miles ahead,hardly ever see the copsand our limit is still higher than yours. OH,BLACK STILL RULES!!!!!!

Thats proves how slow, you Black Blackbirds really are, The Territory has had 130 klms per hour for a while now.

Cheers,
Brian.

You are not joking about the cops, and they will book you for One klm over,
Not only do they hide in trees, they wear camoflague gear as well.
They now have unmarked police bikes, Not even ariels on them.
The secret police are out to get you.
At least in the Alice, no one will see your old slow black thingymabob.
Brian.
