Directly from Mother Honda "the coefficient drag across our matte finished bike have an increase of resistance at speeds greater than 100 miles per hour. If at that time you see a red blur go by you it must be our limited series Red bike which we made with the least coefficiant drag. After the US Air Force complained about the Red bike we discontinued maufacturing it for the slower Black models". Apparently, Red models were exceeding radar limits!"

A few of my buddies have 750 Shadows and if you road those miles on that then you are in heaven now. Be careful out there. Your horse and buggy now has hyper space capability
