That's really unsafe for her to ride in sandals like that!  :P

I just noticed there appears to be something duct-taped to the exhaust? Kind of looks like a walkie-talkie, with the antenna pointed towards the rear. (Rear of the bike, not the girl. ;) )

Not usually a fan of missing side covers and the stripped out look, but this one just has a presence i just can't get over.

I agree.  The engine's paint job almost seems to have a nickel quality to it.  It goes well with the black of the bike and the brown seat.

Oh don't be tempted by the smoker darkside young Kevin.  ;D  ;) Those look like crazy fun, if you want to learn to wheelie, there's your sign.

Very nice, except for the front wheel. Does not look right to me...

Cal, we all know you have a Beemer hidden in your closet that you never expose to the light of day.

I love the blue frame on the BMW and the exhaust how it tucks the bike.

Cheers.
