What? No more yellow, the color featured in most of the magazine road tests of all-new 2001 model, buyer's guide pictures, etc.? I dunno, maybe yellow hasn't sold that well, but it seems like a dumb marketing move to me to make it impossible for a customer to get one "just like the one in the magazine".

Mmm.... black motorcycles rule.

[i][b]Yup, funny move uh? I wish MO would have posted the silver one...it's pretty![i][b]

Awww, come on. There's hundreds of silver bikes (well, maybe fewer than ten, but who's couting anyway?), but how many metallic June Bug-looking bikes do you know of?

Even black buicks...er wings?

[b]Well I did like the '00 silver metallic CBR XX too. I don't know of many colored this nice, no.[b]

A Honda spokesperson just confirmed that the Yellow has been discontinued. We're waiting to hear back as to exactly why (as in how many were sold compared to other colors).
