unzipped leather jacket, helmet on helmet lock, not on head, shorts and tshirt, all 10 outta 10 poser points.

Quote from: AR5ENALWe could build a huge database of these, and that way future generations of GSers won't make the mistakes I did and modify their bikes with an ignorant hand.
At least you would have a use for your "ignorant hand"  :P

When I got to your first post, AR5ENAL, I was just thinking, "Yah, my purple bike has them all goin' ga-ga...oh, yeah!" I'd rate it an "8".

Now, the pants I wear really get 'em going. And, they're inexpensive ($50)! Fieldsheer Carbolex overpants. I was walking into the grocery store and two teens were gawking at me and said, "Nice pants". I gave them a smile and they just smiled back with their eyes all lit up. Just to see how 'interested' they were, I purposely rode by them as I was leaving and gave them a little wave, I could feel their eyes following me through the parking lot, and verified it when I looked in my mirrors. Too bad I'm married...

Fieldsheer Carbolex overpants: 9

And my bike is stock. With the fender. I don't think they pay attention to turnsignals.

My bike gets me laid and such all the time and it even has crash scars.

I'd say the TCP fairing worths a 10, and the custom "suppousedly" golden but kind of greeenish paint adds a 7 at least. Chick points rule!!! :)  And no matter Katana shock and Progresives deserves only a 2, it could be potentially a -5 if she ever comes to notice how badly the stockers handle 2up. You know, no chick likes to admit some overweight.

Don't forget
Nice Mirrors: 2 for chrome ones, 1 for bar-ends.
Rusty: -2 per patch
Dents: -1 per dent
Small cool looking front windscreen (like Pablos Monster one): 2
Fatter rear tyre: 1
'89-91 GS: -2 (boxier, uglier)
GS500F: 5 (the look much cooler)
Colour coordinated gear: 3

I'd say color coordinated gear is a -2. Gear should match gear, but not the bike.

Hmm, I've heard opposite opinions, but as I am without ovaries, it's all second hand info.

Nice to actually see an opinion of a lady....since it really only matters what women think.

Quote from: MeighanI comment on guys bike's quite often... but you know what? That doesn't mean I want to date them or sleep with them, it means I want their bike!

In my single days I accepted a dinner date with a gentleman who thought he was using his bike to interest me in a romantic relationship...

...actually I used the dinner date to lure him into selling me his bike, a delicious Moto Guzzi.  Mmmmmm!

And no, there was no quid pro quo--I'd say that it was purely platonic, but where Guzzis are concerned there's always a little bit of bike-lust.

I kind of thought that getting a bike and being a chick would send guys running the other way, as I had said for years "dykes on bikes!"  But it seems to be the opposite.  I think that if I was still in my my mama stage that I could be getting me sum with my bike.  Just as I am checking out bikes and bikers I get many nods and conversations starters since I started riding.  And during my my mama years, I wouldn't have really cared if it was the bike or not, I just wanted to get laid.  Maybe guys think, "hmmm, an aggressive girl that wants to ride!"  or "this girl won't just lay on her back!"  Guess it can go both ways.  hahahahahaha that might have came out bad. :thumb:

I think what's great is when I am buzzing along and I get those "omigod, it's a GIRL" double-takes. My little GS attracts looks mostly because it is bright orange (though the V&H doesn't hurt ;) ). Then the second glance is usually like  :?  when they notice a little hair coming from under the helmet and a slight difference in how my jacket fits.  ;)

I love seeing other chicks who ride and I love when chicks OR dudes comment on my bike. Sexy is sexy, no? :) hehe


OH, and Pablo, I think I saw your east coast twin yesterday on my journey! Don't worry, I waved to him.  :mrgreen:

LOL, So I must get bonus points for looking like a big Denver Broncos or Syracuse Orangemen fan!?  :lol:

I origianlly purchased the gear knowing I had a yellow DRZ to 'contrast' but as it turns out, now I REALLY contrast my orange GS.  :lol:

Oh yeah, my bike got me laid several times. The worst was at 85 mph...

So I got laid last week? I don't even remember it. I want my money back!

Yes, you can get bonus points for that, UNLESS you are living in an area where those teams are popular. Then, I'm sorry to say, you lose points.

damn this is getting complicated!

My wife just loves to see me on my GS ..... because it means I'll be gone for a couple of hours. :dunno:

my girl makes fun of me for wearing matching gear.  she says it's "cute", but in a dorky way.  but hey, we're both nerds anyway, me philosophy, her science and medicine, so i guess it works.
