Scorpion Helmets have this one design that I thought was stunning, it's like rose vines with one stylised flower on the side. A little feminine but with an edge to it.
As for the pink bike, I'm from the bay area, so you never know.

Was randomly searching the web for
reflective decals and came across this:
You could slap that on the back of your helmet. That particular sticker is $6.95, so if it's worth it to you, you could let people know you are a chick!
Note to moderators: If that qualifies as a sort of spam, you can delete this but it was done with good intentions.

I'm sure you are all right, my BF tells me you can tell I'm a girl under all the gear. Plus he bought me a super sexy Spidi jacket at Christmastime and it is very shapely as it should be. I'll stop worrying and start practicing the slo mo helmet removal/hair flip Shorts was talking about.
Speaking of helmet stickers, a coworker of mine used to have a USPS "fragile" sticker on her helmet, always thought that was funny.

I can't, for the life of me, get that hair flip thing down. Have you ever noticed that the girl's hair is never tangled and helmet-headed after the ride, so it always flips out hair-salon perfect?

It takes me an hour to comb out the knots at the tip of my braid, if I don't tie it off low enough...
Darn Hollywood!

I so could have done the hair flip before I got a trim. But salon perfect?
Not bloody likely.

Hate to tell you this, but my hair does that. The motorcycle helmet is the best flattening iron I've ever had.

We hate you.
I used to go to aerobics classes and saw the same thing there. How the heck do some of those women look like they just stepped out of a magazine ad after an hour of aerobic exercise?
When I first was licensed my hair was a bit longer and I could do the hair flip thing, but I got it cut a couple of weeks ago and now I have Rod Stewart hair.

Well see now you can't hate me - you used to have the same benefit! I have probably about another 2-3 inches or so of hair growth before the flip becomes an odd dip in my hair followed by a tangled mess myself. I'm considering keeping my hair around this length for this benefit.
And if you have Rod Stewart hair that should mean you can just take the helmet off, toss your head around crazy and be good to go.

My hair looks like CRAP after being on the bike!! I need to find another way to fix it...ugh. It also takes me hours to comb out all the knots. I have long thick hair. I told my bf I would shave my head...he hated that idea lol!
