I am king of Los Angeles on my Red CBR1100XX and today is my birthday which just makes me even more happy to be the owner of a properly colored Candy Glory Red Super Blackbird. | Happy belated, big--scratch that--fast guy!

Thats right.... shut up.
Listening to you two "has beens" is like listening to two old farts talking about the depression, and according to you, no one would have lasted 15 minutes back then.
Ding Dong....wakie wakie boys, I'v gone over a 140 , in a school zone.* I'v passed people on the side walk while dialing a number on my shoe phone. I'v even raced other inferior clours up and down the hall ways of a old folks home, and other than a few close calls with wheel chairs, have beaten off all comers.
I don't even need to meet you two to know that you ride like a couple of sissy la la's.
You two are probably just a couple of "side walk commandoes" that wished they had real motorcycles, and have snuck onto this forum to live out a life long dream by pretending to be part of the super blackbird crowd.
Oh sure it's easy to say " ya'll come down to Tex r canna, I'll I give ya a lesson or two"......in what Armadillo tipping???
That, plus I think you two " boys" are a little to hung up on red things with strings.
Listen, If your not sure, just google the subject, if you still don't get it, then ask your mom, if you don't have a mom then go ask your dads "life partner" * but either way, you two need to find answers.
But I will give you credit for being right about one thing Silverbird.....when you said , black is not as fast as silver.
Because now I just realize , the only reason you are keeping OutlawG around is because you feel sorry for him , but your going to have to tell him the truth sooner or later....just let him down easy ok.
Oh, and by the way...that flash of RED that you'll see in the parking lot while you two are taking turns pushing each other around in shopping carts....that will be me, so don't blink.
* kidding.....(but not about the "all comers thing")
* not that there is anything wrong with having a life partner as opposed to a wife... and now it's time, for one of Lou's rhymes. i used to go fishing and once caught a pike, but i think I'd be cooler, if i owned a red bike. Thats ok you two...you can take turns, besides, nutter could use a brake....suckers ... This has been brought to you by the colour RED, and her affiliate's , speed, coolness, pride, king of the jungle, and , of course...the red brigade.....kneel suckers.... | Don't mess with me Lois.......... I am a chairborne ranger!!

And then the red riders woke up form there wet dreams and looked outside at there pretty pink bikes and sat down and started to cry when they relized that it was all true.... There bikes were really slow and pink and had little flowers all over them. How cute of honda to make a color of the bird just for a girl

Silver is the fastest color. If you ever beat a guy on a silver XX it's because he's sandbagging or doesn't know you're racing.
Or...his bike is holding down a scissor jack in the garage like mine. Even like that, it's faster than other bikes up on jacks.

Logoman, I am sure that your "jacked up " XX seems awful fast to you....but really bro, most of the spider webs on it were put there while you were riding it.....
and spiders can only run 3 miles per hour......
Silver is just that slow.....sorry. i wish i wish my bike was red, but instead i drive a spider web. hey you...yes you....down on your knees... ....thank you, thats much better...

Now now fasterspider, I meant " while spinning a web " the 3MPH speed applies.
Besides, who in the whole wide world could compare to you fasterspider ? , why I have even heard others on the board refer to you as the fastest spider in all of California.
The hill people sing songs of your blinding speed.
I myself have even partaken of the magic root ,and then ,dressed only in a loin cloth, rubbed myself from head to toe in white ash, and while in a drug induced hypnotic trance have chanted to your ever lasting speed and wisdom.....three times....this week.
I was on an Alaskan cruise in 1976 and I remember that even then, the old people spoke your name in reverance as they looked up into the crystal blue sky, while quietly wetting their pants.
And just to let you know, I'v had twenty seven thousand "fasterspider" buttons made up, and I am going to give 700 of them to everyone that orders a set PAIR valve covers from me.
You are fast.....you are the reason for speed limits in the desert....you are the "crackle" in Rice Krispies....you rock brother.
Sometimes late at night ,while I'm taking a nice relaxing 200mph ride on my red bird , up and down someones drive way, I pretend that I am you.
Keep on keeping on, fasterspider................... and I'll do the same.  as, fasterspider is among us.
Lois...............

Arm up my brother......looking to be a long time in the trenches.
By the way you sorry pinky ass riders..... SILVER rules and the fastest that has ever been and there is no way you can beat us but keep talking your smack....... it is quite entertaining.

I'm sorry about this but European XX riders in the order Blue/Black/Silver/Red are the fastest...they're always at least 7 hours ahead of Californians !! |

Right on Lois, now if we can get these aliens to realize the fact that Red Birds are fastest, we will have the whole world on our side.

Patience my friend. World domination takes time.
The red tide shall soon over take all before it ... they are feeble and will not be able to resist the power of the red brigade.
Soon, they will all willingly bow down of their own accord.
Either that or we will all scream like little girls until they drop to their knees and give in...
