My new set of wheels....

[DesmoDiva]

As some of you know my wonderful hubby suprised me with 2006 749 SBK as a wedding gift.   

The rest of the story is....

I go to VT to visit my parents and get my (thier) car inspected.  I come home and he tells me he has an out of town meeting all day two days before our wedding.    This I believe because we are working on a housing project in said meeting location.  I think nothing much of it.  As said meeting gets closer, he starts acting a little funny, taking calls out of our office and "just killing time" when I ask what he has been up to.    

Meeting day arrives and he leaves.  We maintain our normal contact throughout the day and I suspect nothing.  He calls me and tells me he will be home later than expected.  Around 10pm I hear some noise from our driveway, but dismiss it as we share a drive with 15 other garages.  Then my phone rings and he asks me to come down to the garage.  Okay no problem. 

The first thing I notice is his ST4s is missing.  I didn't hear him pull in, and you can hear it from a couple blocks.  Next, I notice a twin of his 999 parked in front of his bike. I was speachless.  I walked up to it and it was a 749.  And he said it is mine.  I was so happy I did a little "I have a superbike" dance  (good thing that is not video) and give him a big hug.  Finally I settled down and look the bike over and it's perfect.  Goodies in all the right places and it is already lowered. 

So he didn't have a meeting....Instead he flew into Boston, drove up the coast a little, and drove my new bike back over 500 miles through 5 storms, some with hail.  I have definately found a keeper.   His ST4s was parked at the airport all day. 

Now for some pictures (ignore the other children in the background):









and the best for last


And the sound of the open clutch is intoxicating.

My GF has never rode before, got her a scooter and she's attending the training classes to see if she likes it.  Hope she does then we can step up to something a little more rode worthy
