Gear
The helmet is an XS Shoei TC model (on sale at some Mega Cycle store in Woodbridge for under $200.)
The pants are indeed Aerostich Roadcrafters, 34S. Big in the waist so she gets suspenders for them. The length is 26.5 - a near fit for now. On Sale as a discontinued size.
The jacket I bought from a gent in England 2 years (or more) ago. Size 12 and not brand specific --no labels present-- but purpose built for children's motorcycling. Armored shoulders and elbows; gortex lining; cordura shell; with a liner which is removable. Don't know more except I remember paying about $35 British Pounds for it.
Boots are Montrail hikers; mid-ankle.
Gloves are AdvanceAuto Mechanix brand with padded palms.

The Older I Get, The Less I Know.
What a great shot. All I can say is enjoy it while you can. At nine both my girls would ride all over the country on the back of my bike. At about 12 - 13 they were afraid their "friends would see."
Now the oldest is 21 and wants to take a trip on the back again. But a bit of a dry period in-between.

Indeed
That reminds me of a joke:
A little boy awakens in the middle of the night to screams from his parents room.
Worried, he rushes in to see what is going on. He finds his dad on top of his mom performing his manly duties.
The parents quickly notice the boy and cease activities whilst ushering him back to his room.
The father lets the young lad know that they are working hard to make a baby sister for the boy.
The boy, excited, quickly returns to sleep.
The next day, the father comes home to find the boy sitting on the front porch crying.
When asked what is the matter, the boy replies "You know the baby sister you and mommy were making last night?"
The father replies "Yes. . ."
"Well the mailman ate it this morning <boo hoo>"
