G'day Beefa'!

Is that the color called asphalt (***-fault) that has been very popular with honda lately or a very dark silver?

Re: Hi Guys from Aus

Its actually Matte Black, so no gloss : ) the matte tends to make it look a little like a really dark gunmetal grey.

I dont think that you guys get this color over there.

Regs,

Actually, the Matte Black looks pretty intimidating! Still, all 'Hawks & 'Storms are red IMO.

Re: Hi Guys from Aus

One thing i really notice the lack of over in the states is that you guys havent worked out that some colors are faster than others...

Here in Aus, the black is slightly faster and has slightly more power than the other colors.. the Teal is the slowest, and the others squabble about which is the runner up.

No squabble here in the Northern hemisphere- Italian Red is in its own class.

We don't have the sissy teal or pink here. Red's seem to be fastest N of the equator, then yellow, black & blue.
Also, the whirlpool in our drains spin clockwise and our rear wheels spin forward.

Re: Hi Guys from Aus

Tank seems a different color than the bike. In the US, the bike is all the same color as the plastic. We call it "titanium" here on the Honda website. Looks great!
