If Black is the absence of colour then it follows that no colour=less weight=BLACK IS FASTEST: QED! End of argument; so all those with heavier colours just quit whinging and live with it!
.... no colour = no light emitted of any frequency .... which may be OK for bikes that do not have modifications to run all lights at the same time coupled with retina-burning HID conversions. With all that extra illumination, this particular Falco must be an absolute dog!




Yeah - well you know I've always liked your Falco Tweaker .... so close to perfection .... and it's not your fault that the year they made it, they hadn't got round to refining it through the tasteful application of Bronze over parts of the black ... but eventually Aprilia sorted that out !Tweaker wrote: Oooohh.... gettin' persnul now AndyActually, I'm
'cos personal arguments are always a sign of envy and you have, unwittingly, proved the case for Black
However, if nothing else, I am magnanimous in victory so I happily conceed that Bronze is 3rd fastest
Tee hee Heee
I would make some comment about the inadequacies of those who need to have the "fastest" bike just to keep up but there are too many of you that will remember me running tail-gunner on our last ride-out. .... trouble was I prefer a boat to a bike in those conditions ..........
..... especially when you know that nobody else will wait for you to return from your recovery mission .... friendly lot us Falco riders !Tweaker wrote:Aye, well..... some of us need a fast bike as we have to travel twice the distance of everyone else when we forget our 'Personal effects' at cafe's
Yeah - good point Dale - we did have Bigun laying a trail for Dave to follow - easy to tell if you went off track - your tyres would begin to grip again .... well as much as they can in any river - yet still detectable when you've been used to riding on a film of 10-50 (or whatever he was running) ....Falcopops wrote:Unfair, we did wait for a bit, well until Bigun's oil slick looked like it was about to become an environmental hazard and we all absorbed a few more gallons of water.
