So my wife and I just found out that we're having a girl! I have an ATC 70 that I have rebuilt from scraps and it runs great, but needs some color. Currently I have it painted with a black frame and red forks, but with girl on the way who will be riding this, what are some color schemes that are favorable to the females? I know Maier has pink plastics, but I was thinking of the whites with purple or something. Show me or let me know what you think!!:Bounce

Congrats on the baby, we just had a little boy he's only month and a half now but i already have a little zinger in the works for him

built my wife a hot pink framed, black plastic 400ex a few years back it looked pretty sick. I wasnt ashamed to ride it hah. Were probably gonna do a pink framed 350x for her in the near future. I think purple frame/white fenders would look good too.

Pink, Grey and Black always look cool for girls. Pink frame, black plastics and grey highlights? My little guy is 3, he will be riding this spring!

Congratulations on the new family member!

Did you have her name on it somewhere? I'm trying to remember an awesome pink 70 build, I think it was yours..

They are for a cr250, i just wacked the ends off to shorten it a bit so that it would be easier on the girls. It is getting about time for me to go through it again. The rotary shift engine doesnt look like it is going to last much longer . But on the plus side, it still looks nice.

That thing is sweet! That's definitely the direction I want to go with mine. We are excited about our 1st child...her name will be Ivy, so I was also thinking I could go down that route...

If you know a good airbrush artist, that could be a really cool look...

I am thinking about going with the white plastics for sure. Now the question will be between doing purple on the tank and forks or going with a dark green and having my family friend (old sign painter) do a custom ivy thing on the tank. I'll probably leave the frame black?? I got some time to think about it still, but thanks for all the input so far!
