new forza in black

[slogger]

hi everyone, Im no stranger to scoots or bikes , Ive just ordered a new black forza after a test ride yesterday, I couldnt believe how comfy and nippy they are, was initially looking at another silverwing 600, but a bit heavy for me now, so the salesman suggested a forza, am I glad I listened to him. He also said that the black ones are the fastest, thats right isnt it fellas??
hopefully will have it for weekend.

No, red is the fastest.

Where abouts on this world are you located?

[dergav]

No...the Seal Silver colour is the fastest one...proved in trials!!..its also the nicest looking...cause I have just bought one!!
But enjoy your black one...they really are great bikes
Shame for our Americans cousins they can only get red...but there again we cannot get red!!

Silver!, makes a good undercoat for red

[dergav]

No No ...not Silver....Seal Silver...(looks like metallic grey in fact)

( ps...how do you add those wee smiley faces in?)

The only color is red any other color is a myth. Red is supposedly the fastest color known to man.

Red is only fastest on Italian vehicles.
Anything from a Japanese brand has to be white for maximum speed.

[MichRocks]

As any color- white, silver, etc. moves faster and faster and faster away from you, the color shifts towards red.
Jus Say'n.

[gn2]

This is where the confusion arises.
The static spectator may observe a colour shift towards red as the scooters go past and away, but as any Forza pilot will tell you, as you approach light speed and look down at the scooter it remains white.
The red ones are only barely visible as little dots in the rear view mirrors.
Hope that clears it up.

[DAB]

Are black and white colours?

[gn2]

Yes and no.
Black is no colour, white is all of them.

Well, not exactly. You are in fact, correct, but here's my thinking. Trying to determine which is faster is best left to a 'drag-race'. It was early-on determined best to leave the results in the hands of 'static' spectators. Early trials with both participants and 500 spectators zooming down the track simultaneously resulted in indeterminate timing, and some really nasty crashes.

Now, to a simple test...don't take my word for this- try this yourself and see if I am not right.
Take two participants, and run a drag-race; black, white, silver colour doesn't matter. Log the results. Now, repeat this, but this time tell them to REALLY accelerate, and try to hit light-speed. You will notice that BOTH scoots will start to turn red, and the darkest red will win. Only word of caution; if this is tried with 2013 PCXs, have them remove their turn-signal stalks; they have a tendency to burn off.

You would need to conduct the race 10000 times to eliminate any discrepancies

apparently so, as honda recon my new forza is 'asteroid black mettalic'.

[dergav]

What I have noticed ( but have only had the bike 2 weeks so early days) is that as I decelerate my Silver seal colour( who dreams up these colour names?) appears to turn red and then black and then white....as I go slower. Makes me suspect that it has been a red one destined for the States but recoloured white/black for England and then recoloured seal silver for Scotland cause we go faster.
As I say ...just a theory ... and from a limited time test.

(Still working out how to add smiley faces!!)

[Mel46]

However, Forza red just makes you throw up. That is because that particular color of red is outside of the color spectrum.

[Alibally]

The grey one will be faster than the others due to the fact that its only lacquered over the primer so they are saving weight painting it a proper colour like white.

White is ok for fridges, dishwashers, washing machines and other domestic appliances.
