I think what finally convinced her was this:

"Look, we have the money. If I bought a bike and kept it somewhere without you knowing about it, you wouldn't even know the money was gone."

The only real headache is going to be parking. 2 cars and 2 bikes is going to be a tight squeeze in a 2 car garage.

I heard those have a missle of an engine for that segment of bike....

I'd rather have the VFR1200 though.

Want bad. Hopefully in 10 years they will be reasonably priced...

My truck wouldn't fit in the garage if there was nothing in it... FL garages are RIDICULOUSLY small. A lot of people convert them into living space...

Build a bigger garage.

I just sketched out my house and garage. After downsizing for financial reasons, the garage is only 300 sq ft larger than the house.
