    think thoroughly first...........

    You cannot have sex in the backseat of a bike without the risk of your missus seeing it.

    Keep the car.

    Yeah and don't forget, you can only fit one gf on the bike at a time..... and you can't pick up Swedish tourists!
    It's just one of those days, where you don't wanna wake up,
    everything is fucked, everybody sucks,
    You don't really know why but you wanna justify ripping someone's head off

    Utes are handy for putting MotoX'ers on the back or even taking your race bike to the track
    Plus they make you look like a real man
    Nuff said...

    [edit]Saying that since being back in NZ I haven't had another ute, just the Zx6 and my Skyline, Turbo + RWD = fun with four wheels[/edit]
    >< The little ZX6 that could ><

    I want a project car (would make two cars at our house) and the pillion wants a bike.

    will we actually own 4 vehicles? Not unless at least two are s%$#@*&s!
    If I lived alone it would not be long before I had a car as well.
    If I have to spend the rest of my life with only one the choice is easy.
    Depends on how important convenience is to you though because most bikers could afford a taxi or even a rental for less than the cost of retaining a good car you rarely drive.

    There is no real answer that anyone else could give you.

    I recommend noobs don't sell the cage to buy the bike, but a year down the track when you realise you have used your $8000 2 years ago car twice in 12 months you are the only person who can decide that.

    When I say I want a car as well I'm thinking $500 gets a warrant and reg, gets used 1-2 times a month, get something to buy tools for R R R R.

    I cant take a sick new-born to the hospital, or carry $200 worth of groceries on the back of the bike, so the cage stays.

    Also, if you own a house - you need a cage - anyone who's got one knows why!

    To tell the truth I like my cage as well, even though its a Honda!

    Hmmm yes,I have been wondering about your handle a bit lately.
    But then I'm the same,it's a bit hard to get a 16 foot and a 12 foot surf caster plus a 10 foot LBG rod, plus all the other stuff on board a bike.
    Traveling cross country on a bike with a rifle over the shoulder can be done but it's not really the best look either.Also getting two Dachshunds to sit still on the gas tank just ain't NEVER going to happen.
    Damn,I really need another 4x4.

    After buying my third bike last year I handed the keys of the Hilux over to the misses. It hardly gets used now, on account of here allready having a cage.
    Those who insist on perfect safety, don't have the balls to live in the real world.
