AJ Johnson Posted June 13, 2007 Report Posted June 13, 2007 I added another vehicle to the stable tonight. (Wife is out of town - boy is she gonna be surprised. ) I paid the guy $1 for every mile it had on the odometer. He is a navy pilot and has been out of the country quite a bit. Honda Shadow ACE 1100 with only 3400 miles. AJ Quote
Norm's Coupe Posted June 13, 2007 Report Posted June 13, 2007 Since the wife is out of town and doesn't know about the bike, maybe it's a good time to think about remodeling the dog house, before she gets home. That way, you'll have a place to sleep. Quote
Young Ed Posted June 14, 2007 Report Posted June 14, 2007 Just remember the man rule. After 48 hours you are allowed to say Oh that I've had that forever Quote
John Mulders Posted June 14, 2007 Report Posted June 14, 2007 I like the man rule but I am sure you have a spending limit of at least 1000$ per year married ? John Quote
AJ Johnson Posted June 15, 2007 Author Report Posted June 15, 2007 Well, my wife's reaction was anticlimactic. She first said - "I should never leave you alone. I told my friends that I would probably come home to a new car or motorcycle." After staring at the bike for a few minutes without saying a word, and me inching slowly towards the door she stated, "I like it. It is my favorite motorcycle that you have bought". I have owned at least 7 motorcycles during our marriage of 7 years. I am down from 5 at this point last year to only 3. I plan to keep this one around for quite a few years until I finally bite the bullet and break the bank on a 1994 Harley FLSTN that I have lusted after since I started riding motorcycles. I could sell all my bikes and buy one, but I can't shake the euphoria of riding a sportbike. 2nd picture is my Aprilia Falco during a ride down to the T-head the other day. AJ Quote
