Andy,

I've learned that asking for forgivness is easier than asking for permission most times.
You're likely going to get clobbered in either case, so you might as well make it worth it by getting what you were after, right? :laugh:

Seriously though, Rose most definately is one of a kind and a keeper.
Like most of us, she'd been burned in past relationships (both physically and mentally by her first husband :angry: ).
The difference is she KNOWS that's not how anyone should be treated, and didn't fall into the "maybe I deserved it" mindset that some women allow themselves to be drug into.

So go for it, send your wife on over to "Rose's how to treat your husband like royalty school" once she arrives here in the U.S.
Rose'll have her on the right track in no time, and likely send her home to you with an m/c license and a desire to pick through your herd of bikes to find one she can call her OWN to ride. ;) :laugh:

Congrats on the new ride. Be sure to also check out www.KatRiders.com for any and all info you my need for that bike.

As for the Mrs....Don't ever let that one go bro. I have a great wife who understands my obsession as well...



I'd been looking for a site like that.
Thanks for that link Breeze! :laugh:




OMR,

Rose said you didn't wipe your feet and left the carpet covered with with oil/dirt stains, which automatically banishes you to the doghouse.
P.S. Thanks for the ice-cold cervesa. :P :laugh: :laugh:

Actually Colombian women are pretty much tuned into the treating their men like royalty already. It truthfully makes me a bit uncomfortable, I've been a batchelor for so long I'm pretty much used to doing things for myself so being waited on hand and foot is real new to me. I'm also not a huge fan of Colombian food (too darned much rice) they eat more rice than the Chinese and worse than that they eat it just plain, yuk.

As for the bike part I already bought a bike for her, that little 81 305 with 1504 miles on it. I don't know that he is too thrilled with it, when I sent her a pic her comment was "oh that's pretty" :S . I suppose that's why I've been on such a bike buying jag for the last couple of years. I figure if I already have a bunch when she gets here there isn't a whole lot she can say since they were here first.B) That way I don't need to ask for forgiveness. At least that's the theory, for all I know reality might drop on me like a turd from the sky.:angry:

I guess I got lucky too! When we decided to get married, Mary sold her house and used some of the proceeds to buy a 1974 MGB roadster - which she kindly lets me work on - but so far only the engine, gearbox, wiring, front suspension, rear suspension and rear axle have needed work!:huh:

Two years ago I sold my 1981 Virago - we didn't ride it much, and I never really liked it! She kept asking when I was going to buy another bike. When the opportunity for the KZ came up she said "go for it". When I got it home (it had been stored for 10 years) she set-to washing and polishing it! Whenever we get questions about the bike she is the one who answers them! She is buying new rear shocks with her "bonus" check!:)

But then, a year ago I did buy her a fancy sewing machine!:blink:

Ya know - it starts real easy, but has a lumpy idle and the seat is too narrow......

It was great talking to you too, Corey.

But it's more than just a hobby now, it's become more of an addiction! :woohoo:
