    F6B favorite color

    I think the 2015 Blue is a great color, had a black one but not very noticeable in the dark.

    The others colors all look good, but I think F6B is meant to be black.

    Bob that's an interesting point. It seems common sense to us that dark colors are hard to see at night, and light colors are easy... and there's probably some truth in that but IMO this is mostly imaginary.

    In a pitch dark room, white color is equally as difficult to see as black color... and I think this applies to white and black motorcycles on dark nights.

    It's only when we introduce a light source that we can see anything in the dark, white or black. A MUCH better way to become visible is to use reflective tape... which can be bought in various colors to blend in with the bike, but when a light source hits it, it *shines* bright white.

    I would hope nobody gets over confident about their visibility at night due solely to the color of your bike.

    How many here have not seen all the available colors in person? I've never actually laid eyes on the yellow. My own bike is the only blue F6B I've ever seen.

    I saw a matte silver F6B outside for the first time today. I must admit it looked a lot better than when I saw one under the artificial light at the motorcycle show. I think I'd still get the blue if I were to do it all over again, but the matte silver is really growing on me.

    I like the white... but really only if the fairing is matched.

    I've only seen Red, Black, and the Silver Matte... and me too, the Silve is growing on me.
