Sounds like you made your decision.

Bout time you Man'ed Up. Is owning two bikes even a legitimate question for a guy to ask?

Yeah, I think so. The more I look at it, the more I like that bike.

I know, right?

I think what finally convinced her was this:

"Look, we have the money. If I bought a bike and kept it somewhere without you knowing about it, you wouldn't even know the money was gone."

The only real headache is going to be parking. 2 cars and 2 bikes is going to be a tight squeeze in a 2 car garage.

Lmao...Well the one I posted isnt the worlds best shed. My dad built is own with wood and it looked really nice when he was done. Plus if it's big enough you could keep all things motorcycle in there an keep the garage free of it!

Wifey wins though...

You boys are rookies. I have three garages.

The GS is clean because once I clean hard parts, there isn't much more to clean

Exactly, garages were meant for toys and shit, not vehicles

Bullshit, basements were meant for toys and shit. Garages are for vehicles.
