    Hi all.  I have placed a deposit (a money deposit that is, not a human one) on a 2014 Trophy SE.  It's just getting a few things sorted and I hope to be getting my leg over it again at the weekend.  The wife is going to be livid :013: when she gets back from holiday next week  :034:

     :400: to the forum.  Tell her that at the price you paid it was less than half what an R1250GS would cost so you really should have bought the 2 bike package so she could have her own!  They understand BOGO. :745:  Congratulations on the new ride BTW.

     :400: OldMan and  :821:

    It, in my experience, is usually easier to ask for forgiveness than to ask for permission.  Good luck with her return.....
    Love, light, and kindness,

    Hi Old Man and :400: to the Forum !

    If she rides Pillion she will soon come round,
    and if she doesn't, maybe it's time she did !  :028:

    Cheers  :821:

     From "one old man" to another OldMan  :400: Just remember to reminder her that the correct number of bikes to own is, "always one more". I love to be a fly on the wall just to see her reaction.  :821: :028: :745:
