I've only seen that colour once......and it was spouse to be the one I ordered back in 09 but got the grey instead
I looked at a new 1300 about the middle of 2009 while I was getting the rear tyre done on my 1100. I thought it looked black but the dealer said it was grey as far as Honda was concerned. Not sure if black can be called grey by any stretch of the imagination.
Black is just very, very, very, very dark grey. :grin
Cheers,
Gary

Fixed.....you may all now have up to 2 votes for the multi-STriders but I could get the allowed count to go into double figures for Onsie  :nahnah

I had to go other.......Pearl Cosmic Black for us  :thumbsup


Saaz called it that black ST1300 with the paint imperfection because of its gold fleck  :well  :crackup

I've only seen that colour once......and it was spouse to be the one I ordered back in 09 but got the grey instead

I have only ever seen 1 other in this colour and both bikes purchased from the Springwood QLD dealer, by all accounts they are a rare colour indeed  :grin

Wrong, its actualy all colours being reflected, not just one colour. Black is the absorbtion of all colours, ie reflects no colours at all.

How they make white on a color TV or computer screen is to turn on Red, Blue and Green at equal full intensity.

I was doing some touch up on my ST which is Police White and went and paid $34 for some paint at Auto Barn and then found that it was not quite right as it had a yellowish tinge to it, in frustration I looked at all the white cans of spray paint that I had and found that an $11 can of appliance paint from Bunnings was a better match LoL.  :||||  :law  :o  :thumbs

For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

Yeah.  It's only natural.  Take it as a hint!    ++      :grin
