You have to wonder if natural selection is working fast enough with these people.

Why does it take road rash or scars for people to realise WEAR PROTECTIVE GEAR?!

You all have a choice about protective kit. Like the lass there, it's my opinion that it would be bloody daft to jump on the back of your mate at warp 10 in a pair of jeans and a T shirt.

I may even form the opinion that road rash looks sh*t.

Just like a pink bike then.

There's adding feminine touches to your own bike or car. Then there's going OTT.

If they're going to miss spotting 160kg of metal, 3000 or so lumens of headlight... they're not going to spot some horrific paint or a hi vis vest either...

Plus not doing your bike up like a c*nt reduces the chance of people setting fire to you.

Heh. I had a lady in a Golf fail to see 2 tons of Transit 330 yesterday. I was alongside her when she pulled out and squished her car against the van. Just keep out of range; I don't think anything makes much difference when they aren't looking in the first place..

Stop getting so defensive! It's a public forum, you are entitled to hear our opinions, we are entitled to give them. You don't know this girl personally, no point getting wound up about something that she's never going to even know you've defended her about

If she was here she'd probably be agreeing it's a sacrilege to paint a bike in that state #stokes the fire#

Ouch, that's a long way to slide, WITH leathers, let alone anything else, that looks nasty and painful

Credit to her for the message though.

They could all start a club I think, colour blind or taste challenged

Personally its no more offensive than the common gsxr colours
