Manufactures
Do you think manufactures should make some motorcycles specifically for the female market? Different colors and different sizes in seat height and handle bars? What do you think? Would you buy a pink bike? or would you just keep changing stock to fit to you?

I'm with Andrea with thinking about the resale value. Since the female market is still smaller in comparison the the male market, I think both the manufacturers and the original purchaser might have a hard time selling a bike that looks too girlie.
My new bike is a very pretty bright royal blue. It can work for a girl or a guy. I will add my own flavor - elastic-threaded beads around the brake fluid and clutch fluid reseviors, feminist magnets on the tank - a couple little things like that. These are also things that Scan can remove from the bike if wants to take it for a ride.
Cheers,
Loonette
