You know, even though I've had my red non-ST for over 4 months and 4
thousand miles now, I'm just not used to the color.  At first I would
see bits of the fairing out of the corner of my eye and think it was
some warning light.  I got over that after a couple of weeks.  

But it's just not the same.  I can't come to like the color.  The black
was so much more exciting in a "oh you sultry temptress" kind of way.
I miss it.  

My next motorcycle will be black again (or maybe silver).

Laters,
Brian
