Black painted bike

[Malve]

Pics?

I'm going black when the FJR needs to be painted if I still have it.

Had a black ZX11 and you know what they say.

Maybe Yamaha will twist your arm/wallet with a factory black in 08/09

The weather is warming up over here (really the crazy winds are dying down)

I am itching for a ride.

If my work schedule permits I should be going on my first ride of the season in a few weeks.

Right now it's hard to fit in a ride with a 140hr work week.

My previous bike was black. It reminded me, years later, why I swore off black vehicles when I had the black car.

WTF? 140 hr. work week? Are there 140 hours in a weeK? Ever hear of sleep? Finally what the hell you doing riding an FJR in Italy - you got to have a Ducati --

Heh heh heh...you really don't want to go there

If where you stop matters more to you than the roads you ride...you might be a Ducatista

PS: Rattling along in an overpriced, unreliable and (often) beautiful machine is not for everyone. As the rhyme here goes "Ducati, soldi buttati" (Ducati is money down the drain)

Hmmm, forse non compro un Ducati!

Nothing looks better than black when clean, Nothing is harder to keep clean, Nothing is hotter to the touch

If I painted the FJR any other color, it would probably end up a pearlescent white.

See now that's just HOT!

And I know black can be hard to keep clean but in Southern Cal it is a lot easier than elswhere.

Currently also have a black Armada and a black MDX.

Yes I do. No one can see you on a black bike so you'll get hit by cars alot.......

You'd think I could remember a four letter word, eh?

Black looks good.

I think it would look better with the silver wheels though.

It also gets hotter in So Cal than elsewhere! Can you spell M-A-S-O-C-H-I-S-T ?
