    About the same.........Just fast enough to edge out the Harley's but not so fast as to Humiliate them. After all they still are my riding buddies and Brothers..........Dickie

    Hard to hold 6 lungs back when the predecessor only had 2 lungs and was black.

    40 year old, air cooled tractor engineering design does leave a lot to be desired...

    As to the color...that is yet to be determined since at night you can't see my flat six, black steel steed as it slides rapidly... oh so silently from behind only letting you get a quick look of its fast dimming tail light quickly moving into the far distance ahead. Is the black faster you wonder as it vanishes from view?

    Now you know why the world's fastest air-breathing aircraft - the Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird is black like my F6B.

    I tried to have my F6B painted that color but my security clearance expired the day I retired.

    Where Are You At

    Did you ever go for a ride and not be paying much attention to the speedometer and all of a sudden you look and the land is going by you at a very high rate. Where are you at, 95 mph on your F6B of course.

    Yea, every time I notice the telephone poles start looking like a picket fence and the only clear thing is a small circle in front of me I know it is time to slow down.
