Just as I expected. I believe I mentioned in my last post that Silveritis is a consistent disease. Chewie just provided further proof. Unfortunatly another symptom of silveritis is that it causes their brains work as slow as their bikes. I'm quite sure that they have such love for the little critters that no matter what Nutter says they will keep bringing them up. Such is the effects of Silveritis.

Re: How come bike color affect its top speed ?

Honda made my 2006. 1100XX, And they painted it and called the paint job,
TWO TONE SILVER,
I call my XX SILVER, Because Honda told me so.
And I am damn sure they know what colour they paint their bikes,
Obviously, red and black ones come with an automatic silver block out to the eyes. So they dont get upset when a silver XX blows them away.

Hey spider, I don't need to ride to California to know Silver is faster than red. You've been out in the sun too long, my friend, and must be dehydrated. Grab some Coppertone and a Corona and come to your senses.

Re: How come bike color affect its top speed ?

Chewie... Now there's further proof. CORONA???? YUCK. No one drinks that unless you're planning on going real slow. Wait. I guess its right up a silver riders alley. Slow rocking bike. Slow acting beer that you have to drink tons of just to get a buzz.

I didn't say I would join him. I was considering his location and proximity to Mexico. Thanks for the review, but I must point out the irony of you attempting to lecture a Canadian on the finer points of beer.

Re: How come bike color affect its top speed ?

All the people I have known or talked to, have said your Yankee beer is just like lemonade. If you want to drink beer, try OZ beer, 3 glasses and you are over the limit (.05) and anybodys. 6 Beers and they confiscate your vehicle and lock you up. Its called Fosters over there, Im with you Shewie, If you are going to drink beer, its gotta have guts, Try Bundaberg rum, another OZZIE icon, Do not drive anything after Guzzling this stuff. Preferably stay in your armchair. I bet this will get a few going.
Corona, is that the one that you put a slice of lemon in it, Sissys and girls drink that stuff. or red and black XX riders.

Lois, are you ashamed to put your slow crappy old red XX on your avatar, or, you are inside that bear trying desperately to get out, after rear ending it, and slipping up its clacker,
I notice that you have put. buy a red bike in such tiny letters, is it because you have realized how slow you are, and really dont want any one to buy a red one, and embarrased by the fact that you have got unfortunately conned into buying one. and now realize that they are so sloooooooooooow.

Re: How come bike color affect its top speed ?

Chewie... I'm not pretending to be Mr. Beer and I wasn't lecturing anyone about beer. Just making an observation about the beer that you mentioned and how that plays into the slowness of your color. I don't think that there is anything Ironic though about mentioning it to a friend from up North. Now, I'm not saying that there is good beer made in the states. Actually there is but its all at the microbrews. Plenty of good stuff at the micros. I guess there is a market for corona for people who like beer that is not a light beer but just tastes like a light beer. deadman they normally stick limes in that stuff deadman not lemons. Lemons are more common in wheat beers. Don't know why they stick limes in corona.

Re: How come bike color affect its top speed ?

Thanks for the education on beers, Strek, I dont know why they put lemons or limes in a perfectly good beer, either, the only thing that goes in my beer glass is pure unadulterated beer or bundy rum, And I dont drive or ride after drinking.
Beer does not slow you down while riding, No matter what colour the bike is, But the sudden stop, will definately kill you,

Deadman... Agreed. Too many bad beers will have the effect on the pilot of making you feel that you are on silver bird in front of that walmart from what silverbrd tells me. Well the bird will be capable but the pilot will not and that sudden stop would be no fun. I'm not against a beer if you have it with a meal. Seems like you folks down under have it tougher then we do. .05 man that is more like one beer. We have .08 in Illinois. That typically will equate to about 2-3 beers depending upon your weight/size and time taken to absorb the brews.

Re: How come bike color affect its top speed ?

Holy CRAP!! We are going to get spanked into a new thread when Nutter checks in. SILVER IS FASTEST!! SILVER IS FASTEST!!

Shrek, we have .08 here in ON as the level at which you are considered impaired. This is usually around 5-6 pints, depending on the time frame. However, that said, .05 is the point at which they suspend your license for 12 hours and tow your vehicle. This level is around 4-5 beers in one hour. At my weight (215 lbs) I can drink 3-4 beers in an hour and just squeeze under the .05 level, unless I'm into the overstrength stuff.

Silver is the fastest colour, in case anyone forgot.

This is where the Corona comes in handy. It's lighter so I can drink a bit more. It's also lower in carbs than most of our domestic stuff so it's a bit more Atkins friendly (yeah, I know, I'm in a cult). The reason they put lime in it, so I'm told, is because originally the conditions in it's native land were somewhat less than sanitary so the bartenders would wipe the mouth of the bottle with lime in an attempt to clean the rim. Someone decided it tasted better with the lime and the rest is history.

Go Silver!

Re: How come bike color affect its top speed ?

Here, three full strenght beers in an hour, you are on .05, and it is .05 and over, They have booze buses everywhere, and all cops carry the breathalyzer, Its about the size of a cigarette packet, Even cops on bikes carry them, If I drink, I drink the light stuff, as I need my licence for work,
My problem is keeping the speed down, not drinking, These SILVER XX's are some thing else, when it come to speed, We have a 100 klm or 60 mph top speed limit. My XX exceeds this in first gear. I know what you mean by unsanitary, some of these overseas countrys, Not good .

We also suffer from the 100kph limit, and that is only on our beautiful, multilane superhighways which were originally designed for 160kph cruising. All other roads are 80kph or less. You get some funny looks from people when you tell them your bike can exceed every posted speed limit in first gear. Even in the States, I think the highest posting I've seen is 120kph, which I think can still be acheived in first. We really shouldn't be discussing this here though, the off-colour riders are going to be jealous.

The Northern Territory, had an open speed limit. But that many overseas people in cars, have come here and terminated themselves, they have now dropped it to 130 klms per hour, the main Nrth - Sth road, 1000 miles, most of which is dead straight, Its called The Track. Alice Springs To Darwin.
Northern Territory is about 1000 miles from where I live.
The jealous off colour riders are off colour any way, Silver Rules.

Ha.......Silver couldn't win a one man race to the shit house.


Besides.

Do you want to know what lite beer and silver bikes have in common....?

They both take a long long time to accomplish anything.

Well that, and I am fairly certain they were both originaly invented to be used by children , or old people.




Red rules....just get used to the fact.

What war, Those inferior slow peices of crap didn't have a leg to stand on in the first place, EG; Buy a red one, and the black ones were totally embarrassed by a SILVER paint chip that schorched off and left them for dead,
They just realized they were in the slow lane all along, I think the medication they were on, was affecting their sense of reasoning, How it must have hurt them to come back to reality, and fully comprehend the fact, That,
SILVER WAS ALWAYS THE FASTEST COLOUR.
Well at least they tried, hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
But to no avail.

Re: How come bike color affect its top speed ?

I'm telling you that silveritis is a powerful disease. It really warps ones mind into believing just about anything. They think that if they make a couple of posts that they have won something. All the while their bikes are parked in front of that walmart waiting for the next kid to come along with a pocket full of quarters. Paint it black my friends.

Re: How come bike color affect its top speed ?

Deadman & Silverbrd... Its you silver riders that keep rehashing the same old stuff. I figured Silverbrd would pick someone else to fight his battles and sig deadman on me and lois. Now what that has to do with having the fastes color is anyones guess. Another symptom of silveritis. An inability to think on their own and only finding strenght in numbers. I hope that you silveriders don't come across any lemmings. It would be curtains for the whole lot of you. Yes I know you would have to run out of quarters first. This is because your minds are clouded with the disease. There is a cure. Paint it Black.

Re: How come bike color affect its top speed ?

This thread is hilarious..

On a serious note, I love my BLACK bird with the tinted headlight protector and indicator lenses and all. Reminds me of a stealth fighter. But if I ever buy a new Blackbird, I would not mind if it was candy red (not pink/purple) or silver. A sliver bird with clear indicators can look real nice! And the deep red paintjob is yummie too. Not so sure about the rest of the colors though. Blue is more appropriate on a Yamaha R6, I think. And the titanium paintjob reminds me of the Yamaha FJR somehow.. And don't even get me started on the pink/purple'ish paintjob!

What have we got so far, Quarters Gerbils. diseases, silveritis,Tubes,doctors, mammals, beer, common garden slugs, and now lemmings, check out the spelling above from Strek, your losing it, I think you need a big hug from your MUM,
Leftlaner has a nice black XX and even he is laughing at you lot.

Thats a nice bike youve got there Leftlaner, do the headlight covers restrict the lighting or do you take them off when riding,
Cheers,
Brian. And Silver is still the fastest thing on wheels or anything else for that matter,

Re: How come bike color affect its top speed ?

Deadman... I know I have the occasional mis-spelled word. Sorry about that. The spell checker on this site is not the best and riders of TRUE BLACKbirds are just moving too fast to be bothered. While we are at it lets see what you have added to this thread. I think you have said that you believe silver is the fastest. Riders of the silver blend keep bringing up gerbils. Don't know why. I can only conclude that they like them. Not much else other then that.

At least you are not so consumed by silveritis that you forgot about the doctors advise, the gerbils (that you silver riders love so much and that you keep bringing up in multiple threads), the quarters that you guys need to rock back and forth, beer (which is good by the way but please no Corona), garden slugs and lemmings. Very good. That tells me that there is still hope for you as you are still able to absorb and process some limited amount of information. Silveritis hasn't infected you and gotten that deep into your brain yet. There is still hope for you my friend. If you read further back in this thread you will also see that we discussed the design chip that was included in the build of the BLACKbird (TRUE BY THE WAY) and why painting it Black will solve the problem that you have with forward momentum. You will read about the recall as well.
