Re: [ST] Bike 4 Wife was new to list

[brettwilson21@xxxxxxx]

Hey I did that!
 
She got the bike she wanted (CBR600F) and I got what I wanted (05 ST) 
Now I'm in trouble because I have a bike which is to tall & heavy for her so she cant ride it. 
 
Therefore we should sell that and get something she is able to ride as well!

"my other advice is get soemthing you wouldn't mind riding"

Philip,
That sounds good, especially from a male point of view which is very logical, 
but take it from a guy in his 24th year of marriage, do not give her the 
slightest hint that you want to ride the bike.  I have a friend who wanted a 
backup to his VFR and got a Suzuki GS500 "for his wife".  It did not turn out 
well.  My advice is to provide advice on reliablity and maybe price, but if she 
wants a pink Suzuki Savage, that's the best bike on the planet.
