why would you go spend 17k without consulting with your spouse?
Did it twice for $12000:
- for the S2R1000 in 2007. It went well.
- Second time this summer for the 998s FE. It went really bad: she didn't talk to me AT ALL for 3 weeks.
Was hard, but it faded with time and I ended up keeping the bike... [moto]

This guy is giving up too easily...

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

Exactly. As long as he still had it in his possession, regardless of trying to sell it, I would be putting a crazy-ton of miles on it. Especially because his time at home can't be that fun right now.

Who's going to mind if it's 40 miles or 540 miles at that price. This dude is a n00b.

Wait, why are you saying that's a bad thing?  [evil]
I own several motorcycles. I have owned lots of motorcycles. And have bolted and/or modified lots of crap to said motorcycles...

Seriously.  I'd definitely pay $17k for that.

Mrs. 152 has her money from her job and I have my money from my job.  We split the bills down the middle.  If I want something, I save for it and go buy it.  Same for her.  10 years married this month and finances are not argued about.

Well, unless they're splitting her.

It wouldn't really be an argument over money at that point.
