Step 1: go to the GSX1400 Owners ORG forum (here)
Step 2: Post "What colour is fastest"
Step 3. Wait, briefly.

Ahhhh, no contest. Gotta be the Blacks! Everyone knows ya have to ride a black like ya just stole it! No pussyfooting around or worrying about the latest spot on the white rim, just off, an bloody fast!
Don't take my word for it though, just ask an independent adjudicator, as in RedBiker shall we say!
:stir:
All yours Red . . .
well my penny's worth is :stir: :stir: :stir: :stir: :stir:
ask all the red black and white pink orange and any other color ones we pass as there always behind use blues :onya: :popcorn: :onya: :popcorn:
Sorry Blacks can't be fastest as Black is not a colour as proven on the old forum
B&W has to be fastest as that is what Suzuki paint the factory and GSX-R bikes in for that extra turn of speed (note also that the Yamaha team also painted their race team bikes in B&W and won nearly everything in sight - Rossi dominated on his B&W Yam)
Which just proves my point....... :clapping: :lol:

Whilst what you say above is true, to a point, the reason they all won on the B/W's was because they couldn't catch a black to ride it! :clapping: :lol:
no can't agree name me one team whose colours are black.....
(Actually Col you need to complete your sentence to "......couldn't catch a black bike to lap it for a second time" :rofl2:
Advantage B&W :notworthy: :clapping:
Cheers for the heads up Kiwi' looks like I've arrived just in time!
Let's look at the facts:
1) Racing Team colours are picked based on best visibility for the advertisers nothing to do with speed or more importantly 'Sexiness or menace'
2) Hollywood never use B&W if there is a bike featured they are invariably Black unless it's Power Rangers or Libre Archie's bio. Think Terminatoe/Great Escape/ Night Rider/ Highway To Hell and it goes on
3) My personal opinion is that those who ride bright coloured bikes are generally missing something in their life or have gender issues (or small nobs)
So that's settled that!
Cheers
Red

Black is fine on a British bike, it's traditional.
Right!!! Children... THIS is the definative resolution......
B&W's are NOT the quickest, they are common and slow...
Blacks are NOT the quickest, they are just for lazy people who cant be bothered to make the effort.. and we all know lazy = slow... "Hmmm what colour shall i do my rebuild.. hmmm sod it, cant be bothered lets black it.." - Lazy
Black & Red is NOT the quickest, they are like the goths of the 14 world trying to be different but actually there are to many of them and peolpe just look at them strangly when they are in restaurants....
The fastest ones are the Hydro dipped ones.. Evidence:- I ride one! They are so fast people cant even tell what colour they are unless they are parked or at lights.. I ride one! I pass ever other 14 i see.. I ride one! They are not for lazy people they take time and effort..-Fast.. I ride one! Everyone looks at them and says.. "OOoohh thats pretty, i bet that shifts.." so people think they are quick even when they are stopped!!! Didi i mention I ride one?
So there you go.. argument over.. Now if ANYONE disagrees with me i will lock this thread!!!!.... :devil:
Well I disagree with you - and if you lock it I'll unlock it it nah nah nah :rofl2:
Hydrodipped? So what does one of them look like Proteous?
Im with Col.......Black it is !
None of these hydrodipped, blue n white, rainbow colours for me.
Now look what you've done Vlad, and we were all getting along so well.
Personally I think all Black bike owners are suppressed B&W owners, they wish they could afford them, and wish they could control the raw tarmac churning power of same and are just envious of the superior B&W - their heroes :smitten: :whistling: :notworthy:
and....................Round 3 ding ding!!! :boogie:

Correct my Black was born in Preston so very British Blue's are for the Sunnier regions
I do hear that they are going to develop the Black ones a bit more.....here's the prototype being worked on even as we speak - rumours of 25rwhp.... :happy1:
fancy !
Here's Barmy checking over the K9
:happy1: :rofl2: :rofl2:
right to finally put an end to this
black is the fastest colour because it was everywhere before light and they say nothing is faster than the speed of light but black must be
BLACK( the speed of dark) FASTER THAN THE SPEED OF LIGHT
:cheers:

What is that Barmy? Russian bike?
Col
nothing is faster than the speed of dark as it was always there first
its like a real true scientific fact
:happy1:
Yup, agree. Now why can't Dave understand that?? It's science after all, an he's an intelligent bloke. I guess some things are just too complicated even for Admin to grasp.
Round 4 I believe . . . . . .. Ding Ding!

Mate, I've figured it. I know why they can't grasp it. The colour is Pearl Nebular an we all know a Nebular is up above the sky in space. What colour is the sky? Blue & White - yeah? What's above the sky? The inky darkness or Pearl Nebula! So even in nature black is above B&W.
The concept is just above their heads, an they never gonna grasp it.
The sky is the limit for the B&W riders, poor things - we really should feel sorry for them - but I don't. :whistling:

God knows - its one I saw when I was in Cuba (so I guess could be Russian possibly then)
it's why we have to tune the b/w ones so much :popcorn:
he might be in touch with his feminist side and just coming out :rofl2: :lol:
Oi oi you lot, first you attack my Audi, then my feminist side, good grief what next :rofl2:
Hmmm, next would be . . . Round 5 . . . Ding Ding! :boogie:

Nice, but it needs gold wheels to go really fast :clapping:
Nah mine goes faster since the wheels changed from gold to red....
Lads, we should see through the rainbow bikers plan. The Blacks must not squabble amongst themselves.
Its just a ploy.......for them to catch up.
Truth be known mine would go even faster if I cleaned it. But then im always riding it !! :boogie:
