Default Black Limited Editions

For a long time Yamaha has been making all of its Limited Editions Black. What is wrong with changing it to somthing else? I think they need to put some more thought into these limited editions. what do you guys think?

I'm fine with just their two colors personally, but I think black is cool for a LE.

I think if they make a limited Ed., it should have more changes than just colors IMO.:

It turns out that dirt wheels asked Yamaha why they always make their LE's black and they said because that's what their consumers and dealers ask for.

Yeah I read that too, but I cant see how people wouldnt want a change to make them more rare, like have them with more special features to make them one of a kind.

The black with yellow LE banshee's look pretty sweet, but I'm with you guys if its gonna be a Limited Edition, it needs to have stuff to set it apart other than different plastic...............I mean how hard is it to add some Bling Bilng?

I'm a little slow in responding, but I only collected $10 so I bought myself a 12 pack of Bud Light instead.

Thats ok.

I don't know how well the pink tires would have gone with the lime green seat cover!

i wish Yamaha would make limited edition Dirt Bikes. a YZ450F or YZ250F or YZ125/250 with white plastics and red frames (ala` YFZ450) would be awesome, with some special porting, taperwall bars, and good tires. that would be SO cool!
