If a company delivered bike parts in boxes labeled "lawn mower parts" they would make a fortune, I always get busted by the wife as the boxes come in.

Nice bike

Well, my friend, you are suffering from common disease... it's called HIV. HIV begins the second you step into a HD Stealership, and once contracted, it will never go away. There is no known cure at this moment, but scientist's are hopeful that a cure will one day be found. Oh... forgot to tell you... HIV stands for: Harley In Veins.

I've been riding motorcycles for years and if the choice had to be made I would take the bike over a car. This is nothing new, but the extent to which this obsession has hit me is unreal.

I'm like all bikes, not just Harley, but I have never been so happy with a bike as I am with this Bones. I guess it like Jeeps, you don't understand until you understand. The Harley mystique has taken me in its grasp, and it won't let go!

Like everyone else has said, it is inevitable. I bought a NT 2 months ago and I have already easily dropped 1K +

Fun though.

Mine is named Harlot, she consumes all my available time and a lot of money. She is the other woman in my life.

**** the 12 step programs between her and the wife I have all the steps I need.

Yeah, my live-in girlfriend hated the time I spent on the bike, the money I spent on the bike, the stuff we couldn't afford to do because of the money I spent on the bike, the amount of time I spent talking about the bike... Luckily the new girlfriend seems to handle it better. I still get the "look" a lot though. Is every women born with the "shut-up about your bike" look?

You could stop visiting this forum! Hanging out here will just give you more excuses to spend money on the bike ... It's like hanging out with addicts when you are trying to kick the habit LOL
