The only way that Bird which is a color we do not speak could possibly be faster than the Red Bird is if the engine in the Red Bird had a spun bearing or burnt valve which is highly unlikely.

You need to step away from the bong and put down the lighter because you are starting to halucinate from the vapors.

Can't be...it's sliver. By proclamation it is slower. Sorry.

Then how come the guy on the left nearest it is playing with his balls. But the guy on the far right looking at the majestic Red beauty , is jesturing with his fist " Yeh Man Now Thats A Bike " ? Hmmmmmmmmm.

My 1st time on the track was not my last since my new leathers got here today and I will be at the track next week to beat my own time and yours you silly sucker, kneel before the red crew fool.

I need practice is all, I know my bike is faster than yours because yours has to hide from old man Winter while mine is out getting ridden in the warm California sun all year round.

My CBX is Candy Glory Red and 30 years old with not one bit of fading in the paint.
My Bird is Glory red which is a shade lighter than my CBX and also not showing any fading from the hot sun even if I did just buy a new fender for the front because the old one has chips from road debris.

Keep in mind that was my first time on the track as well. And now I know why you will never beat me...

Wisconsin beer makes you drive faster. But you are right about the winters up here, only your wrong on thinking it stops everyone from rideing. Up here when it gets cold we just plow the snow off the lake and stud our tires to ride.

You are insane then and I commend you but, the fact still remains, my Red Bird is faster than your Bird of a color we do not speak.
If I drank beer, you would truly hate me because I would lose all my inhabitions and ride like I knew what I was doing leaving you and your slower bike in the dust with tears in your eyes and thinking to yourself, "Damn it, that fasterspider really does have a faster bike than mine"
I have had my Bird for two months and am still learning her capabilities. Honestly? I am intimidated by the bikes awesome power from her flux capacitor that I have only let out of the box once when I did 152mph with more throttle but, no more room.
She had plenty more but, I had to let off the throttle or face slower traffic at a speed that would have gotten me killed.
It is too nice a life that I live to let it end because I did not keep a cap on my flux capacitor.
Discretion is the better part of valor.
Ride hard, live free, enjoy your Blackbird as much as I enjoy mine and all will be swell.

The confidense that we {Blackbird owners} have in our machines is outstanding and again, I commend you and your confidense.

But, you must have bumped your head thinking your bike of a color I cannot speak is faster than mine.

Today she is going to the Queen Mary motorcycle show and will no doubt be the only CBR1100XX Super Blackbird in attendance. Which of course will make her the fastest and most powerful Blackbird there.

I sure do wish that one of you overly confident Bird riders would come here and test their meddle and metal against me and mine.

Im sure it will be the only one there, thats not much different around here when I take mine out. Even though I know a guy that owns two blackbirds I have yet to see another one around. I even found one in my own town forsale on craigslist but have never seen it besides there. And I live in a town with only 1100 people in it. But mines still faster.....

Took my bike to the dyno match at the Queen Mary today and found out that I have 136.41 hp at the wheel also finding someone that can properly map my Power Commander for me. I am looking forward to that.
In the meantime, my CBR1100XX is faster than yours just as it has been from the day it left the factory just because mine is red and yours is not red.

RSJ · 07-12-2008, 11:14 PM

My pink valve stem covers are worth 7 mph

Talk is cheap, my times are still faster than yours. Do you still need me to explain how that makes mine faster cause I still dont think you understand

Nutter67 · 07-13-2008, 9:13 PM

Yeah, but you still haven't told us why your bike is faster because it is black. Would it be just as fast if it was painted poofy pink???

Same goes to you FS, would your bike still be as fast if it was poofy pink??? Oh wait, it already is, isn't it???

My bikes faster cause I ran a 10.83@129 in the quarter. If you can beat that with nothing more than slip-ons Ill bow down till then Im faster

Nutter67 · 07-13-2008, 9:28 PM

Yeah, but this is a serious thread trying to work out which COLOUR is faster (and why), not which bike is faster.

Would your bike still run the same times if it was painted poofy pink???

Not only would my bike be slower if it was that color I do not want to say but I would be laughed at and have stuff thrown at me

Nutter67 · 07-13-2008, 9:38 PM

Now that's more like it!!!

You wouldnt know anything inrelligent if it hit you in the back of the head, rideing a pink bike and all. But then again you are form California so you do have an excuse for the gay looking bike
