[ARCHIVED THREAD] - I'm thinking about getting into a lot of marital trouble... Motorcycle with my name on it.

I've been looking around for a Kawasaki ZZR 600. I've wanted a cycle for many many years now and decided this one would do the trick. Well, I'm out of town in Bismarck, ND and they have one. A 2006. My dream machine. I could have it all ready to go.

Issues:

1) How to get it home. Not really a problem. Lot of friends with pickups, trailers, ride it home.

2) I want it. Bad.

3) My hurt'in ass after my wife gets done with me.

4) I want it. Must be a midlife thing.

5) Only a couple months of riding weather left this year.

6) The open road.

It'll be colder in the bedroom than outside this winter if you do.

So long as you don't dry hump it in front of her you'll be fine.

Wear a helmet.

What's the saying...........

It's easier to ask for forgiveness than it is to ask for permission.

Get it.

I'm still trying to figure out how I'm gonna break the news to my mother that I just bought a bike. She's gonna kill me! Thank GOD I don't have a wife!

(Note: Although it sounds like I'm 17 years old based on what I just posted, I'm actually a fully grown man who has a protective mother

Get it, and when she starts chewing you out , tell her you make the money and you'll spend the money and that she can like it or leave it

P.S. I will not be held responsible for above advice . Use at own risk.

To quote a Honda Motorcycle billboard from around here; "She'll get over it."
