Hey everyone. My GF really wants to start riding and buy her own bike. She has ridden a little and is ready to buy a first bike. I keep pointing her to the Kawasaki 250 because we all know it is an awesome starters bike. The problem is, she really thinks it is ass ugly.

I took it upon myself to show her what it could like with a little work and elbow grease. So I photoshopped one up. Let me know what you guys think. I know it isn't the best chop job out there, however, it was my first time doing anything of that sort in PS. Overall I think it came out pretty nice... and I wouldn't mind being seen riding one of these bad boys. It sure would make people look twice!

Btw, I got lazy towards the end of the chop so I didn't get around to really cleaning it up. http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif

Ok... first of all, i would NOT call it a fighter.

Second.... dont be a cheapsteak .. go buy her somthing better, like an SV650 http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Oh Ya.... i'll give u some credit for the photoshop effort !

I admitted it was a "more of a rat" in the title. But the streetfighter forum is the place for one-offs and customization. It isn't a matter of being a cheepskate either http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif. I just think that a 250 would be better to learn on. Besides, they are a dime a dozen and parts are cheep http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/bounce.gif

Here ya go... thats more of a fighter, but might be too much for a chick/beginner..... http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/banana.gif http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/banana.gif
Can you photoshop those fairings off and make it look clean.... i think it'll look nice http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif just curious to see.

the only way I could lose the fairings would be If I had a picture of a ninja250 w/o fairings on it. http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif. I can't just invent all the stuff thats back there. I have no idea what it looks like under those fairings.

She is definately more into the MotoGO/superbike look than the fighter look. I think that is a bit much for her. We'll see.

could get a gs500
fun little bike and cheap
