I love being single

Tommotbird, I would just ask her if she will use the bike or not. You did give it to her. So she has to want to give it back or its your loss.

You have a washer and dryer underneath the kitchen sink!? I have a friend to introduce you to. After you see his house you will be scared sell all your bikes and marry your ex. I swear this to be true. lol He has no room to walk in his house.
Used to be saxophones and mouthpieces now it is bikes. He has over 30 and maybe two run. His garage is chuck full and he has a bike in his dining room/kitchen, living room you can't walk without stepping over some part or other. I even think he sleeps with his bsa.
Dude you are going to need counseling if you don't go and see his place.
That is an illness.

For all who have commented I reply. There is nothing wrong with working in a basement if you are lucky enough to have one.
Too many bikes in pieces and disrepair is like being ADD you can't focus on one thing because you are spread out too thin. I am all for having many bikes as long as all are 100% functional save one or maybe two projects. But in the house!!??? If your roommate wouldn't stand for that what would make you think a woman would? The whole oven thing though? I don't know I think she was a bit excessive on that point. You guys are maybe meeting women by trying to impress them. When you don't care you find women who are willing to please you. Be a bike diva and let them find you. And oh yes I would for sure be an indian giver on the 750 unless you don't have much money in it. If you put the title in her name that was your first mistake and maybe I would just try to change a little to keep her and start her to ride with you instead of fixing on your bikes and not riding. Life is too short to be screwing around fixin' and not riding. A little take and give never hurt anyone. Love is good. Lonely with Rosie is not always so good. Life was meant to be shared with people who share your interests.

Excetly what I was trying to say , Well said saxjonz !!

Wow, i didnt mean for this thread to turn out like this. I just meant to say i havent found the right girl for me yet, i thought i had a few times, but got my heart broke every time. I totally agree that you should find some one that shares the same intrests as you. My dad always told me try and find a girl that's going the same way in life that you are. I hope one day i do find that special girl that i spend the rest of my life with. My last ex used me to no end, we lived 20 miles apart and she wanted me to drive her home from work every night, which was fine for a while but got old in the end. Her putting me down for spending to much time with my bikes was just the icing in the cake. I told her well if i wasnt riding 40 miles a day to pick you up, i wouldnt have to work on them constantly.

i support single mothers [strippers] see i spelled it right this time no striped bass for me.

LOL.....funny

You could do what I did and just drag a whole garage home.(Yes, I'm single now)

You're not REALLY single,Tony...you still have a daughter living at home.
(just thought I'd remind you)

I have cleaned carbs in the kitchen, taken over the whole garage, sandblasted 2 motorcycle frames on our porch (well, kind of a porch) and spent countless hours working on my 2 projects. And in return, when my wife needs time for her projects and activities, I turn off the grinder and help out as well as I can. Its a good balance and I think that is the key. Some girls can't handle the competition, grease, dirt, etc so the secret is to find the ones that can. Being single was nice, but I wouldn't trade my wife for the extra hours or the money. That's just my experience though, as shown by others your millage may vary.

i didn't get very good mileage out of my last one, it seems as thou she got good mileage out of me.

Yeah we weren't pokin at you too much but having a beatch like that around who needs enemies. I dated one that thought I was her taxi. That lasted less than the time it took me to change my underwear. Women can be manipulative or wonderful you just have to put yourself out there in a way that says without saying you don't put up with bs and let the rest happen. You have to come up this weekend if you can to see the real deal of a z1 Yanni has in his shop. You would cream yourself and not worry about any women in your life save Rosie. She is the best woman a man could hope to find anyway.
