I agree you are a lucky man. I have the best of both worlds. I have a great woman that is right at home on the back of my wing and I totally enjoy that, however, she is also at home on her own bike which has led to many hours of enjoyment. There are 3 local couples that have wives that ride their own bike and we have a great time even if we are only going 20 miles to have dinner together. Ride safe and enjoy the roads.

I rode dirt bikes as a kid/teenager. Never rode a street bike until 2002..... We were sitting on the sofa watching a TV show that neither of us was really interested in. She looks at me and says "let's get an in-ground swimming pool." I moaned and grumbled and huffed and puffed and told her how expensive pools were to maintain and that we'd have to put a fence around it and our homeowner's insurance would go up and we'd have to get the water analyzed all the time and on and on I went. When I finally shut up, she says, "Well, let's get a motorcycle then." I was shocked, but I had our first street bike within the week. We've been riding together ever since. She actually trusts my abilities - never hear a complaint of any kind. I got a feeling I might hear my first "SLOW DOWN" on this new Wing, though.

CJ, I couldn't agree more, having a good woman to occupy the back seat is a must when on the go. I have sucha woman at my house. We just purchased a new trike and I was gonna give the 1500 to my son, but my other half said no way, I want to keep that because she likes to ride that also. I got a keeper.

CJ I still have my 1978 GS-1000 Suzuki in a storage unit, one day its coming out and get rebuilt from front to the rear....When I bought it brand new my wife had been riding with me a few months on a GT-550 Suzuki 3 cylinders of two cycle get up and go........We would park the kids once a month if we could with my parents and just getaway for a couple of days, if not she drove our van and my kids would ride with dad to where ever we were going, camp out and come home ready for the next trip....Put over 100,000 miles on that Suzuki, and 3 speedos???? (Still under Warranty).....Now we are looking forward to getting back on the roads again with no kids just her and I going where we want too....

I wonder how many of us were "born" or "reborn" as bikers on those Inline Four Suzukes..... a lot, I bet....
