The red ones are faster, but you should do what you want.

Not true, the black one has been proven to be the fastest.

The black ones are just bigger, not faster. Plus, he was only comparing the tri-color and the red/silver and I think we can all agree that the tri-colors are the slowest.

Think about what gear you are looking at in each color and see which combo you react to more...(but I must say the Red/Silver has been unusually fast in comparison) LOL

The reason i'm considering the tri color because the red one is pretty common around, so i thought the tri color will make it more unique in a way, but personally i'm into the red /silver. The tri color somehow looks too plain

Red and Silver is the way to go but get ear plugs as only the R&S coloured CBR's have 'the rattle'

White ones look very sporty,
Black ones are by far the fastest,

Red ones rattle, stall, whine and cant go on the highway.

I'm getting the 2013 white cause I heard it'll be the fastest 250 around. Lol But seriously, it looks sweet.


Later,
