One does not have to read that mis-information post again to understand the simple fact that Red Birds are the fastest CBR1100XX Blackbirds ever produced.
I've heard that even carbed red Birds are faster than either carbed or injected black, silver or gun metal gay birds.
Can't say for certainbecause my faster red Bird is injected but, it is what I heard from a carbed red Bird owner who was just back from riding faster than the speed of light.

LOIS may i ask what colours your 03 gsxr 750 and 1000 are


Just for curiosities sake


Fasterspider please explain this quagmire dude and why you idolize him

we need a colour polldam it! this is the only way to solve this.


I bet there is probably only 4 red birds??? "they say the squeakiest wheel gets the most oil" and they are doin a lot of squeakin.

I guarantee who will win the poll ?Black most popular and fastest

We win the GOLD and the SILVER , the other colours that we REALLY should not speak can fight over the minor place


Go on have the poll or are ya chicken


Another poll would be good to see if we can ban fasterspiders avtar

Yes do that one first, much more important

Sorry Brad, you are a bit late. You are also right about the popular colours.

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

Is your black bird gloss, metallic, satin or flat? Why is your type of black paint faster and better than the other types of black (I gotta keep tryin")

Quagmire is a perverted sex freak and a character on one of the funniest shows to ever hit the TV screen "Family Guy".
[adult swim] | Adult Swim Video
[adult swim] | Adult Swim Video
Check out Adult Swim.com and watch the show but know this, it is not mainstream lame ass TV, it is bold, rude and pokes fun at everyone who has ever been anyone in the media.
Giggity giggity goo.
All that aside, red CBR1100XX Blackbirds are the fastest, most desirable and prettiest Birds there are. Even you upside down folk from the lower hemisphere have to know that.
I think what has you all confused is your toilet water flows in the wrong direction and that makes you all generally confused.

Spider - so what you are saying is that red is for perverted sex freaks! There you go, that's why red isn't for everyone.

No wonder the women love blue bikes because they know they are safe and will be listened to.

I'm a family man, the family man series is not made for family men - unless they are perverted sex freaks!

We, here in Australia, don't watch the water go down in our toilet. Is that what you guys do over there to find sense in life and allay your confusion? There are better ways you know. Every minute you spend flushing your toilet and watching it, is a minute that you could be out riding your blackbird.

Red is a great colour because it is featured on blackbirds.

What colors are my Gixxers....why they are both yellow of course. Ok, the 03 is blue and white....I can't tell a lie.

But neither of them are RED, and neither of them are as fast as my RED XX....so what's your point....?

I see where your trying to go with this, but even though I was born AT night....it wasn't LAST NIGHT....so nice try.

Go home and pratice in front of the mirror some more, then come and try again.

Jeezz Louise....what color are my GSXR's......

No, I am not saying that red is for sex freaks what ever a sex freak is.
I am saying that the character Quagmire is very funny and only one who lives a sheltered life would not find him funny.


Yes, red is a great color.
As a matter of fact, red is the best and fastest color there is.

Family Guy is a family show and when not in re-run format like I watch it, Family Guy airs on Sunday nights on FOX Prime Time so the whole family can watch it.
The show makes fun of people and the stupid things that people do.
Remember that it takes all kinds to make this silly world go round.

I ride a CBR1100XX Super Blackbird because it is the biggest sport bike made by Honda {A Honda is the only motorcycle I will ride} and it just so happens to be of the fastest color, red.

You know....the rest of you should listen to Fasterspider.

I did not realize it until now, but not only does he ride the fastest color of XX ever made (hands down) but he is also wise beyond his years and speaks with great wisdom.

Kneel you Suckers.................

So what your saying, is that the slower colors are made slower even yet, because their owners are wearing dresses and trying to ride in high heels???



I CAN'T SPEAK.................

Sorry LOIS it was worth a shot

Looking at self in mirror now



Sleazy sex freak quagmire??? no wonder i don't like him

i'm the sheltered life guy

But any ways thanx to NUTTER i have discovered the poll

and guess what Black takes the Gold (80)silver takes well silver (20)and bronze goes toblue(15)

Look at the figures guys not even close!!!! So they must be the fastest why else would they be the most popular????? and ummm where is reda lousy 4% i told you there was only 4


p.s do our toilets go in different directions well i never, who would have thought, or looked????

Maybe this is a better topic to find discovery "how come toilet flushing in different directions affect stool speed"

I have a black '98 and I really dig it - I've always wanted a really black bike - or car for that matter. The black wheels really make it dark.

However, I think the 4% red bikes are really spectacular. Its like owning a Ferarri; everyone thinks they should be red. Ever see a white one? wow!

I suppose people argue over which color is best - why not we aregue over everything else... but color is really secondary for me on such well executed bike.

Ride a lot.

I am only going to say this once.

If you are the level headed type and only want to provide me with information that will some how effect my reasoning on why my RED XX is not the fastest....then this thread is not for you, as a matter of fact, you should just leave now before things get messy, and I mean messy like a 2 year old playing with an open tub of mustard on a white shagg carpet kind of messy.

And as for the whole 4% thing, think about it.....there are very few of us who are good enough riders to handle the added power and speed of a RED XX, where as with the other colors, the rule of thumb there is , if you can figure out how to put on a helmet with out tearing an ear off....then you are probably a good enough rider to own a NON RED XX .

A picture says a thousand words and I took this picture today at the Stunt Rd overlook.
Not only is the red CBR1100XX the fastest of the bunch but, it is the prettiest also.
There is nothing better than to ride a RED CBR1100XX in the canyons of Los Angeles' Santa Monica Mountains.
RED Rules, all other colors pale in comparison.
