Faster Blue FZ6

I'm running into posts on various places on the internet that reference the faster blue fz6. I am under the impression that this is nonsense, but people say it so nonchalantly that it's bothering me.

Mostly because I was about to buy a silver 2004 fz6.

So what's the deal?

Re: Faster Blue FZ6

Don't let it get to you. The blue guys are just trying to act faster because they envy faster red ones. You might end up somewhere in the middle with a silver one. Also, watch out for the raven riders, they're stealth!

ninjas wear black and they don't brag. I always have a smirk on my face when I see all them pretenders speed past me on my black beauty. All it takes is a twist of my wrist.

Re: Faster Blue FZ6

Black is scientifically proven to be faster than blue, silver, red, orange or even pink. Don't believe me? Just ask any scientist!

Re: Faster Blue FZ6

Just stop crying about it!! ; We all (deep down) know that BLACK is the faster one, be course:

1. By keeping the air near the surface warmer, it reduces the viscosity of the air in the boundary layer. This reduces drag.

2. Black is carbon-based, and therefore lighter than the other colors (that are lead-based)

3. Black holes which spin up to 950 times/sec and matter entering them can reach light speed!

4. The black mamba is the fastest snake on land.

5. Black don't reflect any frequency in the spectrum, it's speed can't be detected or rated.

6. Black absorb light protons and allow you to accelerate through them.

7. Speed is totally color blind; hence Black is the only color it sees.

Hence, Ladies and Gentlemen, I consider this argument to be closed. I'm sure your local paint shop can be helpful in achieving the fast BLACK on your bikes as well.
