I know my clocks are in the wrong spot... I just threw them on there to see how they were going to look. None of that she's a girl so she doesn't know what she's doing.  ;) lol

What is your plan for the bike's color scheme? I know you stripped the tank down to bare metal, but I see the front fender is still teal.

Something to match the dials maybe? Pink/Purple?  :icon_mrgreen:

I'm doing a black under coat and then taping the entire thing of with painters tape and doing some custom work on the top. I think it might  be the same fuchsia color but not quite 100% on that yet.

Custom work like flowers or unicorns?

Or something like a tribal/line drawing?

Oh my goodness! Get outta my head. The flowers and unicorn thing is spot on. lol I'm actually thinking of doing a white lace overlay on it. It will take A LOT of time but that just means I will cherish the bike a little more with all the work I put in to it.

See what I did there? I started with the most stereotypical girly things I could think of and let you fill in the blanks.
