Similar thing happened to a mate while driving his cage. Wiffy suggested he get something they can both do trips on. He bloody nearly drove off the road with shock

It's just a standard female tactic reversed. To get what you want, threaten to get something twice as expensive

She knows that boats are holes in the water that you pour money into.

Yup, Lou's right - and on a nice day how long does it take you to hook the boat up, drag it to the water, launch it, check it's all set to go? - and then reverse the cycle on the return trip?
Versus zipping on a jacket, popping on gloves and strapping on a helmet.

Of course you don't catch too many snapper from a motorbike.....

(you do still have snapper in existence up that way.....?)

At least she has got her head screwed on right.

And boats are nasty horrible vectors for spreading unwanted pests and diseases from waterway to waterway. Which motorcycles are not.

Depends on the rider, surely?

**MSTRS:Me** · 3rd October 2005, 12:10

Jackrat....I had a boat for 2-3 years and hardly ever got to use it. Flicked it & now I've got 6 m/c. Heaven.

Indeed. Bikes are blameless on this score.

Solid and reliable and compared to an XS650 quite a performer.
Compared to anything else - just another old japper.
Nice lines and a classic jap look. Otherwise unremarkable. Nice bike.

You tested that T100 yet?

Boats suck worse than cars!
