I didn't pay for this bike.
She's 21, I'm 44.
I'm working on the pink, really, really hard... That's why I wanted her to go with the '08. I had a rim tape plan that was gaining traction... At any rate, getting the rims done will only cost $150, so it's not that big a deal. The parts that she wants to paint pink are the seat cowl, the ram air covers, and the air box cover, also reasonably inexpensive to replace items. So why not?

Here's a very crappy mock up....
