haha thats some good **** right there.....sounds a lot like my ol lady

ORIGINAL: jsbridgew

yeah, let's just say an argument ensued where i reminded her that she'd just finished shopping.... and how i was entitled to buy whatever i wanted for my bike

she reminded me how in addition to the 2 pairs of pants and shirt she'd bought for a total of 80 dollars, she'd also bought clothes for our daughter

...and of course, i'm recalculating the cost of my triple trees, fork tubes, and "Headwinds" headlight...and tell her i only bought a "headlight"....he-he...eliciting a memory in her ofhow she'd bought one for her car a few years back at autozone and it wasn't that expensive... =-)

to which she replies, "then why didn't you go to harley down the street?" (there's literally a dealer down the street)

i say, cleverly, "because it's custom and i had to go 'aftermarket'".... eliciting yet another memory of how she'd originally gone to mazda to get her headlight and how expensive IT was compared to the one she'd bought at autozone..... HE-HE-HE

then i see "Sue" a few days later..... and I remind her that her efforts were in vain and that if she weren't so damn "controlling" (women HATE hearing that they're "controlling") she might recognize the jealousy her husband so pathetically displays whenever he sees my bike....and that he just might want one.... but can't have one.... because of her!

all i get from her is a red face and a "yeah, whatever"....LOL!

I am glad my wife slows my buying down. If not we would be broke and I would have the coolest looking bike around and wouldnt afford the gas to ride it. I kind of wish she would crack the sending wip more often but I just give her the puppydog look and get what I want.

I think they are all just about the same.

Wait we could start calling the ones that actually don't mind riding or what you spend on your bike the "2%ers" since the other 98% will bitch about it.
