Am looking at a BLackbird, latest offering claims to be a UK, 2001 on
a 'Y' plate
but it has Analogue clocks, silver frame and silver wheels
the only references I can find are for black everything and in 2001
the clocks
went digital.
Can anyone confirm anything to help me out here?
TIA

From MCN
1997: Honda CBR1100XX Super Blackbird launched.
1998: Honda CBR1100XX Super Blackbird gets modified cooling system.
1999: Honda CBR1100XX Super Blackbird gets major re-vamp, including
fuel injection, bigger fuel tank, HISS and more.
2001: Catalytic converted added to Honda CBR1100XX Super Blackbird,
new instrument panel, taller screen.

The bike was never a fast seller so it wouldn't be unusual for a pre-01
revamp bike to be registered as a Y plate. Check year 2000 colourways -
seem to have silver frames e.g.

Looks like thats what this is. Analogue clocks are the biggest give away.
