Hi everyone, I have "ridden" bikes for 34 years without incident! ( more luck than judgement!?), last bike I had was 7 Years ago a Honda CB 900 F1, I am now being made redundant on 21st Jan 2005! and thought yes, a bike would solve our problem of having just the one car betwen us!, (wife also after a job now too, has been temping!, but came to an end on 23rd Dec!), I wanted a bike to attend interviews, get to work etc!, wife don't want me to have one again as says they are dangerous!, yawn!, ben riding for 34 years without a single accident!, (everyone else is a twat!/ he wont!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!surely/he is!!!! etc!, been there/ done that!, I do not trust anyone!! on the road today!, they are all twats!), wife says I will get killed, well will I then?, your thoughts then?

hopeful?

It certainly sounds like you're responsible enough. I think you should buy one.

However, 34 years without incident though? You want to try harder

depends on your wife, when she says "you'll get killed", does she mean on the road or by her becuase you bought one ?

Don't

Divorce is far more expensive than any bike - believe me!
