Well the old saying "It's easier to beg for forgiveness than to ask permission", is going to be put to the test Friday evening. If you all read of a man being castrated by his wife in the Midwest, you'll know that Mrs. Duffer didn't take my disobediance well. She forbade me, in quite clear language, to trade, sell, purchase, finagle, or deal myself another bike. GUESS WHAT I DID?
Yep I was bored with the FZ(God forbid!) Nothing wrong with the bike, in fact I think I gave the new owner a very nice deal. But I turned around in less than 24 hrs and bought an SV1000s. THE HELL YOU SAY! Why on earth would you want to trade your wonderful FZ for that slow slug. In the words of my preteen daughter "I dunno". Like I said, I get bored, and want new toys. The only problem is MD doesn't allow more than one bike at a time. It seems to offend her accountants sensibillities. In her words,"You only have one ass, so you only need one horse to sit on". This forum is cheaper and less risky than telling some random woman or a hooker that she just doesn't get me.
AANNNYYHow. MD is in Mexico on business and the deal is done. The new toy is home brimming with fresh fluids, and a bath, waiting for it to stop raining. I can keep the bike under the cover in the garage and she'd never be the wiser. Except for the "INFORMANT". IE: the earlier mentioned daughter. She almost spilled the beans this evening on the daily check in. I have told her I want to break it to Mom in my own way. Probably on my knees begging, far from any sharp objects, and with the gun safe locked.
I'm writing this so there is at least some record that I existed on this planet. If I don't return by next week to tell you how it's gone, think of me when you ride.
Well I don't think it will be all that bad. Like I say to my hunting, and riding pals when I spend too much money on equipment. What's she gonna do not F!@# me some more? I'm old enought to live with out some of the things I thought I couldn't do without when I was younger. But I'm not giving up my hunting, riding, or Bushmills. Oh as rule I don't combine any of those activities, none of them really go together. Oh I'm gonna ad some pics of the new baby. Only 3267 miles on the odometer. Got it for quite a bit less than I got for the FZ. And who knows if I get bored I can always get one of those rumored GenIII bikes if they ever make it.
