    They would at least have to check the headlights

    Yep. High beam.
    And check under the chassis
    And look for oil leaks
    High miles, engine knock, rusty chrome, worn pegs...

    Now you haven't been thinking this through, sell her car!

    All the best with married life.
    There are two songs, "Stairway to Heaven" and "Highway to Hell" which I think give an indication of expected traffic flow

    Jeepers mate I'm seriously worried about you

    Your trade me list indicates you've given up your Xbox, your bike and your music.
    To much brother! Your off to Man prison.
    Done a 20 year stretch myself, Never again, got one that doesn't do that shit now.
    Its our way not her way and its bliss.

    All the best Tho
    On a Motorcycle you're penetrating distance, right along with the machine!! In a car you're just a spectator, the windshields like a TV!!

    No Regerts mate.

    To be honestly blunt with you I have been with my girl for 44 years, in 1973 she was standing on the wharf and she said "me or the fishing" I asked her to please think about it and cast off the Bow line for me.

    I raced sidecars after trying to be a Ivan Miller or Peter Ploen in the 70s, she didn't like it, I go deer hunting as often as I can, she didn't like it, but Listen very Carefully, you only get one chance at life, enjoy it, enjoy your wife, but don't let her run it for you.

    Lastly,
    Don't Take Life so seriously, remember
    No one gets out alive.

    Why the fuck would you entertain wearing a second hand helmet? Would you wear a second hand condom?

    I'm still living life my man! I'm keeping my two acoustic guitars and now have a One X. I'm mainly using the PC to make music now. I'm just selling excess stuff aye, not contemplating or anything. Life is good and getting better!
    Enjoy the race. Period.

    Thanks, those are wise words. It's not actually her telling me to change / sell me stuff. I get the impression that most here think it's her. It is actually my choice. We're moving to a different phase of our relationship and right now (being a teacher), money is tight. Just freeing up some gear that isn't being used.
    Enjoy the race. Period.

    Yeah - I get that.

    Myself - the one woman who said "when we get married you'll have to sell the bike" - she packed and left that day ..

    Well, I still think you are making a mistake on two counts (or maybe three)....
