My wife has her own Harley she knows the cost of parts, she also pays the bills and always manages for both of us to get things for our bikes. Its a great thing

Of course. I usually put the parts in the garage when I come home and install them when she's not home. No muss, no fuss. Besides, it's hard to ride when you're laid up in the hospital.

Save yourself $$$$$ guys- check your part numbers at zanottis and chicago harley online- then ask your dealer if they will honor the prices- ours does- they'd rather make a little less and and keep our business- besides, if they sell for less we can buy more!!! I know they priced my chrome swing arm about 145 less than the HD sugg retail.........

My wife and Iare ina fortunate situation. Our pensions and investments provide us with more than enough to live comfortably on. In addition to that we both have part time jobs. What we do is divide our part time income between the two of us evenly and that becomes our own personal stash to do with whatever each wants to do. It's an incredibly neat arrangement and I don't have to think about lying about personal purchases.

Nope, it's better that she knows; I think that she gets more pissed if something has been concealed from her.
However; she usually trusts me and my judgment, so I'm lucky in that respect.......
