Yep - do it.

I can't even imagine the loss. But, keep her with you in spirit every second. Paint the bike.

Post up pics.

Memories and tributes help us remember those we love. If it helps you remember her JUST DO IT.

My mother helped me buy my current Ultra (story behind it) Then she was killed on her BF's Harley on Good Friday 2011.

I can't see that there will ever come a time I will let this bike go. Every ride is like she is here with me.

Dark purple ghost flames on black looks good. Add a few accent pinstripes & clear coat it all.

If that's what you want go for it.
When my son passed away, I had his portrait tattooed on my upper arm.
I also had his ashes mixed in with the ink.
I usually wear sleeveless t-shirts when we're riding, so he can see everywhere we go.

Why not? Has great meaning. Or, you could try a two-tone theme for a really cool custom look with meaning.
