Default Would it be wrong?

Would it be wrong to buy the GF a passenger backrest as a Christmas present for the RK Custom? The backrest would be for her but it would go on my bike so I'm having conflicting thoughts. I got her other presents (digital camera, watch, and a bunch of other crap) but not sure about the backrest.

Thanks and Merry Christmas!

Yea, buy her a lawnmower while your at it. LOL, Just buy it and tell her you did it for her comfort but don't try and pass it off as a gift since it will be part of your bike.

Danger Will Robinson!

If you have her other gifts, buy yourself the backrest and then invite her to ride. Something tells me the backrest "for her" mayh not be a great idea!
