Never ride/own a green motorcycle.
I've heard that one, but never understood why. I like some of the green HD's out there...
Always let your gf/wife be the first one to scuff your helmet, as it will protect you better if you crash hahah.
No way I let my woman scuff up my $800 Shoei!
I do have a bell though. You're suppose to get a new one every year. She buys mine every year at Moto GP
