Default Whats wrong with owning 2 bikes ?

the more black NT's i see on this forumthe more I want one - they are one sexy bike... but I cannot part with my first love the heritage.... the wife reckons I can only ride one at a time but I say why should this matter ? Why can't I be a bike polygamist ? anyone else struggling with this ? giving me the tom **** ... looking for the reason that will shut my better half up.

I have two - one hot rod for me and the bagger for both of us. I am looking for the argument as to why three is not too many. Having a little trouble with that one.

I agree, more is better, I own a '03 Fatboy, '04 Softail Standard, '06 Kawasaki Vulcan Classic 900 LT, and a '04 Goldwing. All black except the 900 is red/black. Love them all, although I am planning to reduce by one. Picking it is a problem. Wallace in Georgia

Easiest way to convince her to have two bikes in the garage is to tell her one of them will be her's. Then she can take the MSF class and ride next to you instead of behind you. And it still gives you two bikes to customize. I traded my Deuce for a Softail Custom last week and I picked up a 1200 Low for my wife a few months ago. I would like to say that I get to customize two bikes, but she's makin' her bike her own just as it should be.

Nothing at all wrong with owning 2 or more bikes or cars as well. My saying is "he who dies with the most toys wins."

There is absolutely nothing wrong with owning 2 bikes. If I could I would own 20. You only live once!
