    Go for it girl, paint it whatever makes you happy, electric lime and nuclear pink? sunburst orange with lime and pink detailing? Jade green with lightning patterns of silver and white?
    Just do what moves you, you can always repaint it before selling it if you have to.

    Im taking her tomorrow to see if it can be done....think i will go all pink. I dont see myself selling her. Im very happy and I like that shes a sport bike but a tourer too. Me coming off was user error and inexperience.....which Im working on. I have learnt so much since riding NZ roads (very diff from states)

    1. Kneck warmers are the bomb.
    2. Marino wool tops are great cause the weather changes here. Columbian ski clothing is also good.
    3. Clear classes are wonderful enabling you to lift the visor and smell the coastal seas.
    4. Dont wait to hear the gravel "lift your visor to see it"
    5. Use a bum bag.....you wont lose your keys
    6. Pannier bags look like crap but you wont cause youve got 10 changes of clothes.
    7. Pannier bags will save your leg if you come off.
    8. Newzealand has roadworks EVERYWHERE.
    9. Riding with NZ Sports Forum guys to Akoroa will make you want to do wheelies.
    10. Riding with NZ Sport Bike Forum guys will make you realize your slow and have alot to learn.
    11. You cant ride a sports bike like a Harley.
    12. Cages can be assholes internationally.

    I agree with him - YOU own it, do what you want with it.

    Oh, a few tassles on the jacket are bound to help too.

    There is a party at her place this weekend, so that should be a blast, you should come and meet the crew.

    You will have no trouble selling the bike when you are finished with it. There are lots of "lady" riders out there looking for bikes like that. Just make sure the painter sprays the inside of the bodywork as well. It gives it that "factory finish" that a lot of repaints miss.
    Nice to see someone not afraid to personalise their bike. I believe that sport bikes have been winning the custom bike shows in the USA for a while now.
    Nice one

    Cool, it's great to see someone painting their bike in something other than the boring, often shite, factory colour scheme.
