People say I'm stupid and apathetic. I don't know what that means, and I don't care.

Always wear a helmet, eye protection, and protective clothing. Never ride under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

So, Carrie says your woman already has everything she needs, and you may have to resort to jewelry. Her recommendation is a tennis bracelet that matches her bike.

I think she needs her own Mrs. Claus suit. (-;

If I knew your wife, I'd know what to get. The only woman I have trouble with is my eldest daughter that has more toys than I do...

New gloves

Gel Saddle Cushion
Gift certificate for a massage after a long ride
New tires
Next service on my bike
Detailing of my bike ( it's hard work washing and polishing every nook and cranny)

Thank you for being bold Blues, so you think a toothbrush and some one who knows how to use it is a good idea ?

Only if that person gives a great massage..otherwise..you don't want to go there.

:laughing:

Another motorcycle related idea is a new face shield for the helmet. That is, if she wears a full face helmet. Face shields tend to get scratched and they can be costly to replace.

I like the massage idea.

Offer to detail her bike? (provided you do it right. You know we can be fussy about these things)

I usually buy whatever bike related thing that I want, when I want to, so I'm not much help.

For what it's worth, I make a lot of silver jewelry that plays well with motorcycle gear.
Ooooooh. Shiny!
