A quick look at the database shows that Texas has the Blues .... there are eight Super Teneres on order and they're all BLUE ... actually there are nine ... coz I'm from the Lone Star State an I got me a blue one ;D

Probably has a lot to do with heat. Summer temps there and a black bike might not be a good mix.

Since my FJR is Raven Black, it made sense to order an Impact Blue SuperT so that I would have BOTH of the best colors!!!!

:D

It's cuz they look good with our state flower........... bluebonnets! Plus it's hard to find the black ones at night. It's like black flashlights. Whats up with that? If you could find your black flashlight then you could find your black motorcycle. :))

Well there you go, my FJR is Cobalt Blue so the S10 had to be Raven.

I was forced to get black as I already have a blue Strom and didn't want to get them mixed up. :D

Agreed! ;D
Don't get me wrong. I still think the Stroms are great bikes (I have owned 4 of them), but I think the SuperT is going to be soooo superior in virtually every way.

I hope so. I love my Strom and it will most likely be staying as the little brother to my new XT12.

Hey Swagger, I think he's trying to say that Texas is now a blue state? ???
