Silly Things We Do. - SV650.org

After reading Stingo's thread about his screen, and the comment made on there about the eyes on the front of his bike
http://forums.sv650.org/viewtopic.php?t=44846

It got me thinking about the silly things we do to our bikes, or the silly things we wear sometimes.

Come the start of December Pete and I wear santa suits over our leathers, and our bike looks like this

It looks totally daft, I know, but the amount of car drivers who smile, honk and wave, and generally actually NOTICE us can only be a good thing. If it spreads a bit of goodwill and cheer, we don't mind making idiots of ourselves

So do any of you do equally daft things, or are we the only fools on here

Well my bike has paw print stickers on the front of her so your not totally alone!

And, ive got a reflective tabbard taht il quite happily wear as it reads "Caution, female rider with PMT!" on the back of it-and yes car drivers stay well back!

Cool Lissa ! I bet you look awesome

I want those little ears and tail for my helmet but I don't think the other half is impressed hee hee.

They will appear one day put on by the ear fairies and there will be nothing I can do. (I will buy anything that is cuddly or fluffy)

I was thinking this year of riding about my hometown in a santa suit, since Xmas day was to my first planned ride!

Spread some cheer, why not?

You jest but I bet Lissa takes off all the fluffy thingies/wotnot, stick them in the washing machine after each ride. They are ironed before the next ride. Please tell me I'm wrong Lissa

Ben, I may be daft but I'm not dumb

Besides, mud just brushes off the antlers anyway

Did one of you have to persuade the other to do this, or did it just happen you both liked this?

I've always wondered the same about Fred and Rose West. You know, 'Hey Rose, fancy helping me murder someone and chop them up and bury them in the basement. Would that be of interest to you?'

...that kind of thing.

No, luckily we both have a sense of humour!
