Nothing more than is wrong with purple on anything. Well maybe, there's something just Not Right about a dude who has purple on his bike.

Now that I think of it, you may be right, I've noticed I'm a bit different, maybe there IS something not right with me.

Too right Relsek

....... the fly in this ointment is... I have always been like this, but this is the first purple bike I've owned

I have always believed(and still do) that color is the very, very last thing to consider about a bike(or car, ect). If it's the machine I want, the color isn't very important. But that's me, some people are very much into the 'look' of thier bike..... I preffer to ride them than to look at them.

Just remember to use grey primer if you decide on a lighter color. That's another thing about purple...shows through if you don't.

Depending on the light, the purple on mine is often hard to determine. The color has grown on me and I really like it now, especially since most hayabusas I see are the blue/silver, red, or grey silver, It's nice to have one a little different.

And to the comment that if your going to have a purple bike, it better be fast, it is.
