The things we do for our women.

Post by kilika2 »

So my girlfriend really wanted a pink helmet. Well I don't have 100 dollars just sitting around so I took one of the "free" helmets that I got when I bought my bike and decided to spray paint it for her with some walmart paint. It's not the best in the world but she loves it. I had less than 6 hours to do it one night so now I am pondering taking it back apart and putting a coat of clear over it.

She loves it, now for her half of the agreement. She said she would sit on my bike and let me take pictures, only safe for works.

Nice job.

My wife says she wants a pink wetsuit for diving. I'm not sure I want her to go diving with me. She has a fear of sharks and drowning.

A buddy of mine had an AR15 painted and anodized pink for his fiance. It looks crazy. And she is a really good shot with it.
Yes, that is a Single Sided Swingarm FZR600 that I built.

Something is lurking, waiting, wanting to be built......It calls to me from the darkness....

I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel....Then I realize that it is the train coming to run my ass over....

I don't know if I want my would be wife to be a good shot with an AR. What happens if you tick her off. I will tell that to my army buddy, he just got back from Iraq and bought an AR15.

I want my gf to ride her own bike cause I'm worried about the weight limit on my 600, she said if I found a pink fzr400 she would ride it. She thinks that she is safe in the fact that I wouldn't be able to find one. Oh ye of little faith.

I'll have to see if I can find a picture of it. But he has also done one in Black Chrome. He works for a gun range that does some specialty stuff so he has access to a lot of options.

And I've seen an all pink 600 with white stars on it in person at the AMA race here in Atlanta. So it can definatly be done.

I'm sure I can paint anything pink for her too. I just need to spend money on my bike first. That's not shallow right? :whistle Nah I don't think so.

Oh well if it keeps her happy and keeps her riding with me then I'm all for it. And I showed her the pic on the chicks on bikes thread, it was just like pulling teeth trying to find it, she didn't like looking at all the other women on there. Heh heh whoops. :hyprocrite
