FXR slowly coming together

[Henk]

Good thing she doesn't read this site isn't it?

You could always take my approach and hope she never makes it out of the B grade, and when even that gets too much you can pick up a flag and go and stand in the in feild.
Bonus is I never get stick for what I spend on the buckets, just tell her it's for her bike

[Arronduke]

Got to agree... I have tried talking her in to in... she also thinks if she did take up buckets... she would beat me!!!

Henk.. your time will come... heee ..

have you watched the twist of a throttle video?

[Henk]

Yep we watched the video.
Sounds like a challenge to me, get her along and whoever loses buys diner.
If you beat me I can always mutter about cheque book racers in range of your wifes hearing and you won't be allowed to come for a couple of months.

Just because I'm married to a "can't keep the mouth shut" doesn't mean I can't - unless I'm in shit-stirring mode, in which case, you betta watch out hahaha (nah, you should be all good, only like getting those I really know into the shit, but only minor shit, rather than divorce court).

Reason to get wife into your sport: spend money, own up, no drama. Or she gets really into it and comes home hoping she's not in trouble as she bought this "blah, blah" because it's cool or would look good on whatever bike, or just because. Helmet on, sorry, can't hear you, what was that? as you ride off. Forgotten by the time you get back.

Delete the listing from your trademe account, unless she doesn't go there, too. I keep having to check what the hell is on the watchlist and ask what we need whatever for and then how much I'm allowed to spend. I do also check what the hell "we've" just bought hahaha. thanks for the entertainment this morning, meant I started work 5 minutes late - good last minute bid their dude hahaha

says the guy with 2 dry bikes and a wet one

[Dutchee]

He's not allowed to ride my bike (he's crash test it already, and now it's only if I think something's wrong and need him to check it out). I think that's why I love my road bike, he doesn;t like it so I don't have to share.

Arron, looking forward to dropping you in the shit with the wife now

Just hope the original fxr turns up one day (hmm, you could just use the new one to get used to it, and bling it up later).

[Arronduke]

Sporty

the frame is powder coated along with the wheels.

Got them done for about $230 for it all.

That is bead blasted as well.
