My dad trained all of us kids to call them "murdercycles." And riders without helmets? Why those were called "organ donors." He REALLY didn't want us on motorcycles. 
I have ridden before (long after I left home - don't tell my dad), and I was terrified the entire time. Felt totally vulnerable.
Looks good on you, though.
You can call me NIK

So the nurse in me says, "Eeeegads a donorcyle?!?!"
The frustrated rebel in me says, "Cool a motorcycle! I want one!"
The pragmatist in me says, "Idiot! You'd never be able to learn to shift gears. Forget about that crazy idea!"
But your bike is sweet and your little girl is a real beauty! Have a wonderful time!!!
P.S. My ex had a theory that you can tell how bad of a guy a man was when he was younger by how pretty his daughter is. The theory being that the worse you were the pretty your daughter will be - Daughters being, of course, God's punishment for having once been a teenage boy/early 20-something man. I have to say dlmos, you must have been very very bad!

Hey moms and nurses, how about a 'sidecar' - literally!
