I'm sorry officer, I can't answer your questions without the advice of my attorney.&nbsp\\; However, I did drive my bike into a hotel room in Texas while I was on a trip.&nbsp\\; It just seemed wrong to leave it outside in the rain.&nbsp\\; Those handlebars can actually fit through some hotel room doors.

Please answer each question...honestly...

1) How many of you have found an excuse to go into your garage and the real reason was to go look at your HD touring bike?
2) How many, after cleaning and polishing your bike, later realized you missed a spot, and were compulsive enough to stop what you were doing just to finish the cleaning/polishing job?
3) How many of you have told your wife that you need to go on a "quick" ride to test the hydrominator which is connected to antilockbiograb bar?
4) How many of you have actually thought about sleeping in the garage next to your touring bike?
5) How many of you are obsessed with getting to the rear wheel to clean off the dirt and brake dust?
6) How many creatively work out your finances so your wife cannot see, on any bill or statement, how much money you drop into your bike?
&nbsp\\;
1. Yes
2. Yes
3. Naw...I just tell her I gotta run to the store.
4. No
5. No
6.&nbsp\\;Of course

I have a custom built (large) shed for the bike, its the Man Room and is loaded with the tool chests, 2 frig's, a table with chairs and a futon. The LCD TV is coming sometime soon.
&nbsp\\;
I don't need to tell the wife anything. She usually is much too busy and tells me to take the bike for a ride.
