Very nice. Only just though 6.2 to 60. (i'll get my anorak!)
VTEC a bit revvy though. Hence the V twin bike instead of an il4!

My mother has admitted to me that the worst thing that she ever did was making my dad sell his bike cos it made him happy. As a result she doesn't give me much lip about me on mine, she just asks me to be careful.

My wife hates me biking, but accepts that it is my choice. She loves it when I come home without the stress and anger that I build up during the week, and has been known to say "Why don't you go out for a couple of hours".

I bought the bike as a stress buster, it is fun, takes my mind off work, and keeps me out of the pub. I guess if it were my primary mode of transport it would loose its appeal

And this didn't seem the slightest bit suspicious?

At the end of the day it's your life but do remember that a bike doesn't moan, doesn't get PMS, doesn't buy dozens of shoes, doesn't mind you going out with your mates, doesn't mind you coming in at whatever hour you damn well fancy and is always up for a ride.



(And er no dear if you read this I was only joking, honest. The spare room? Oh alright.)

Now Ive thought about it, I think I actually love my bike. And Im feeling really gutted at the moment. But I swear after all the lovey dovey ****e I came out with when agreeing to this, I just cant go back on my word now. Im such a ****!

As for the car its a 2.8 Z3 and yes its my first car, I looked it up and apparantly its 6.2 to 60 aswell. For some reason it was cheaper to insure a 2.8 than a 2.2 which was what I was first after, I dont understand insurance?? if there is some negative reason for this, please dont tell me its a done deal and I dont want to know!

If you don't want to do it, then don't do it.
