Welcome mate,

a grey / silver one, so not as slow as the black ones,  but not as fast as the blue and white ones either....

Perhaps different counties offered different paint options?

When I bought my 2003 (K3) bike my options were blue, silver or blue / white.

(I quite fancied the blue one but the wife liked the B&W so as she was conceding on me having a new bike I let her have her own way with the colour  :smile2:)
