green or black
« on: May 01, 2008, 05:53:49 PM »
hi again all

i have been hearing that black is the fastest colour but i always thought green was.
so i got 3 large tinnies of satin black from brown brothers, painted it and then tested the bike and it was 0.23 mph slower than when it was green  :shock:

was this the weight of the paint, the bit of masking tape i left over the intake or due to the 6 cans of stella before i tested it?

thanks  [whistle]
