4. At night it appears to be black.

4 different colors never get old

Havin a 'u' is in fact the correct spelling in English. When the newly arising 'Americans' started with their own dictionaries they made changes in order to make some words easier to spell where it wasn't obviously needed to have certain letters like the 'u' in colour etc. Aspects of spelling were also changed just to make it different from English.

So when an American tells a Canadian or a Brit that 'we all know color doesn't have a 'u' in it', then it's just ignorance. But, I accept that the comment was made in jest.

We was talking about this in the club the other day.. We have 7 or 8 members with asphalt that are active and not sure how many that are inactive.. But it's like it absorbse the other colors that's around, or something like that.. Like what was said earlier, depending on the ambient light, it just changes things up

And another club members

btw: I was in love with the asphalt and whiteout was my second pick. In the end I got a great deal for an MT whiteout so I took the plunge. No regrets, whiteout is second to none, but still love that assphalt. Kudos for u lucky folks to get this badass color.

Definitely the color I'm getting! I love the colors that change due to weather conditions, like my current ride does
