hahahahahahahahaha

I hear you my friend. My wife's lips are only for me also.
But, you need to stop deluding yourself about this silver thing you call a Blackbird being faster than my Red Bird.

I had to teach a youngster on a smaller old school 600cc sport bike a lesson last night he will not soon forget, don't mess with a flux capacitor equipped Red CBR1100XX Super Blackbird.

Each time I let him catch up to me, I dropped it two gears and left him standing there with his thumb up his ass wondering "What the hell was that red blur"

I love my red CBR1100XX more than any bike I have ever ridden and it impresses the hell out of me that she is so friggin fast and stable at speed.

Any one of you colors we do not speak Bird riders wish to challenge my Los Angeles authority, bring it on.

Nice one "Fasterarachnid". LOL.

" Deadman crawlin ", Thanx for the kind words but I would have thought that a Man of your years and worldly knowledge would know that all the fastest machines are RED. From now on I hope that every time you kiss your Girlfriends Fast lips, you think of my RED BIRD.

Don't worry Deadman. These little hot pink riders sounds as if they are jealous of your girlfriends fast lips. They are all gay.

You pink booty pirates shut up, go home, paint your finger and toenails to match your Birds and have a slumber party together.

Accept the reality that SILVER is the fastest and will always be the fastest on earth and the universe and we will still outrun you with your strap on you call a flux capacitor.

And right after you all take your bikes in for the recall and have them painted black you will be able to join the true BLACKBIRDS in Warp. Riders of non true BLACKBIRDS are not even aware of the true BLACKBIRDS since we travel at WARP speed and you can't even see us or wrap your minds around the speed that we are carrying.

Logoman · 08-24-2008, 6:12 PM

Fat girls wrestle their way into black tights in hopes we won't recognize the 300 pound cauliflower thighs they're trying to hide. Painting your bike black to fool people into thinking its fast is just as pathetic and equally nauseating.

We silver XX owners don't need to employ sad tricks like that. Silver is the universal color of speed. Ever see a black, red, blue, or titanium-colored rocket? 'Course not. That would be like bolting a dozen anchors to the thing.

Just stick to washing your bikes, blackies, 'cause your bikes only shine when they're wet and at a standstill.

Strek · 08-25-2008, 11:25 AM

logoman... Rockets are not motorcycles and neither are 300lbs girls. Well neither are BLACKbirds for sure.
Most of the rockets that I have seen are white. Take you bike in for the recall and then you will see some real speed.

A Silver XX owner knows just how untrue that is. Ignition. We have lift off.

Did I mention I own a black Honda Civic and a black Toyota Camry? Hee hee. I like slow reliable vehicles that never look like they've been washed.

Too bad you do not know what real accelration feels like only having a bird of a color we cannot speak.
Come back when you have ridden a much more powerful and extremely faster red CBR1100XX Super Blackbird, that is when you know your world has just been rocked.
You owner/riders of colors we do not speak Birds are just deluded and confused, red is fastest.
So get on your knees and worship the red riders suckers.

When I need to go slow, I get into my black Tacoma.

Strek · 08-25-2008, 1:55 PM

BLACKbird riders have warp drive. That's why we don't notice the slow moving rockets. Did you ever see STAR TREK first contact. The vulcans didn't notice earth until the dude hit warp. That's how us BLACKbird riders are. We don't take notice unless its in Warp. Rockets fat chicks and cars are not the true BLACKbird.

You " Trekkies " are on another planet.

. Everything on EARTH that is Hot, Sexy and Super Duper Fast is, RED. Including of course the Bird.

PH005 I like the color of your bike and dead is right it looks like girl lipstick. When Honda came out with that color they were trying to lure women from harleys and onto the red lip smacking bike. Just like guys that ride scooters you were mis-led. Don't get me wrong the bike is beautiful and would be a great accent on the blackbird but you were truly mis-led. I am sorry but honda specifically had to tone down the speed on the red bird for marketability for inexperienced women riders.
Dead... you must be drunk because you did not get my point about you thinking you were ahead of us blackbird riders. But I will say that some people who own the blackbird should own a scooter, they still don't have their license and still go slow.
As far as my suit. I have to wear that because of the speed of the bird without the flourescent yellow no one sees me at all. The bird is just a blur and the yellow helps people to realize that I am on a fast moving vehicle so get out of my way.
Everyone knows the old saying about every cloud has a silver lining. Silver just makes things shine with brightness it does not make it faster.
My wife has some very nice silver that must be polished and well taken care of beautiful but not fast. Silver is for display only.

Logoman · 08-25-2008, 8:28 PM

You say you dress in flourescent yellow to be seen, but I think the truth of the matter is you want to deflect attention away from that flacid dirt-catcher of a motorbike you're duck-paddling down the road.

We silver XX owners don't need to dress up like every day is Halloween because, when we're traveling at the speed of light, we're never around long enough for safety to become an issue.

wigo · 08-25-2008, 9:08 PM

Well until you ride a blackbird I guess you just won't understand. Silver...

I know one thing for sure. Silver sure does look good on a shelf... haven't seen to many black ornaments laying around the house but as for the dirt catcher goes... when you travel fast enough dirt does not stick.

See...and that's where you're wrong my friend. Honda came out with Red when they figured folks could handle the extra speed it produces. Betcha didn't know you could not get a Red Blackbird with an ordinary license did ya? No sir. If you happen to see a Red Blackbird rider at gas station, or rest stop (any other time it's unlikely you'll see him), ask to see the "special endorsement" on his license. True story.--as a matter of fact, I'm not sure it's permissable to show you, if you ride a clour. Sorry.

Yea your right with that one. You red owners where the only ones that had to get your cycle endorsement since your not fast enough to get away from the cops.

We do not have to get away from the cops because the cops cannot see us we go so fast. The theory behind red being faster than any colors we do not speak has been gone over again and again, there is no need to get into that again.
We who are legal to ride at warp speeds stop volentarily when our friends on slower 500cc/600cc bikes get nabbed though and we do not get ticketed.
You see, the bike is almost invisble to the cops just because of the superior color red.
I had a very good time taking those pictures and those CHP cops were very cool. The guy that got pulled over by those CHP was making illegal lane changes at the back of the line of bikes and we did not find out what got him nabbed until they let us all go.

outlawgibbs · 08-26-2008, 2:00 AM

Looks to me like it was you that got pulled over

Strek · 08-26-2008, 2:26 AM

Fasterspider... Don't even try to use the Warp speed word. That one is all ours. Just so everyone knows traveling at the speed of light is nothing compared to traveling at Warp. Armystrong is right about one thing. Might be one of the only times we get to see bikes of other colors since its one of the few times that WE BLACKbird riders are stopped. That and when we are at the local pub up the road tipping back a few cold ones and waiting for the riders of other colors to catch up to us so that they can buy us a few rounds.

CanadianBird · 08-26-2008, 10:51 AM

You drink and ride???

I know how it looks, that is why I took the pictures.
I was so proud that it was not me that got us pulled over and to tell the truth, it was the 1st time ever in my life I did not get pulled over and stopped anyways and then actually had a license, insurance card and registration.
The cops were very cool like I said and let me take pictures, they do not normally let one do that.
No-one got a ticket that night, we all rode away clean with a warning for dude to watch his ass on lane changing.
The group that got pulled over down the road was not so lucky because there was a flatbed taking away two motorcycles and two people locked up in the back seat of the cop car.

I will use warp speed when refering to my flux capicitor equipped CBR1100XX Super Blackbird, that flux capicitor is what gives my bike warp capabilities. You just can't comprehend, so do not trip.
Your lowly ion drive Bird can get up to warp speed but, it takes a very long time for ion power to attain warp, something like years I have heard mentioned.
I have yet to see anyone mention going to ludicris speed or gone to plaid. Can any of you go that fast? I am happy to say that I have achieved ludicris speed but, only for a second.

Logoman · 08-26-2008, 2:38 PM

It all makes sense now. I pulled out my trusty enigma machine and began to decipher fasterspiders posts.

I now know that "flux capacitor" mean "flex capacity" and that "warp" means "warped"

No wonder that red bike gives off such an allusion of speed. All that wobbling and tank-slapping past parking lot speeds blurs vision and reality for anyone foolish enough to thumb the starter. No wonder there's so many of these bikes entertaining small children on mall carousels.

We Silver XX owners are a generous lot and when we go to the Mall we always carry a bit of pocket change just to keep those Red XX carousel saddles filled with children with runny noses and bladder control problems.

Of course I am warped, one has to be at least a little warped to own a CBR1100XX Super Blackbird of any color. Mine just happens to be the fastest color, red.
