You better hope that's all she will be taking away from you. I bet you haven't been married very long. You need to do it all at one time!!! Planning & always blame it on your friend & the up grades are important safety issues.

As stated above do everything at one time telling the little wife that you won the lottery and did everything you wanted to do to your bike at one time.

Next day tell her you must have read your lotto numbers incorrectly and in fact did not win then duck because she will be throwing things. But at least you will have one fine motorcycle to go ride while she cools down.

With 37 yrs of marriage this is how I do it. I get her what she wants first. This spring, all new sun room furniture and for me, stg 1 with new pipes a/c and tuner. Did I mention some chrome goodies on the side? If you are just buying for your bike, you are getting off easy.

I just keep telling my wife that the things UPS brings to the house are just the rest of that first order. It must have been on backorder...

HDF anonymous where do they hold the meetings? Touring page or General Page?


After 19 years she just sighs and says, OMG what did you buy now? My usual response is, but I needed it to make you more comfortable when we go out riding. She never buys my BS
