You said she was your new GF. You have to determine if she's newer than the bike. If she is, take care of her. If not, your call!

We have friends who are keen motorcyclists and he loves to ride FAST. Her helmet 'taps' on occasions are so severe they chip the paint on both helmets - telling him to slow down! Which would we prefer?!
