Thanks Lynn, I used the guilt trip on the wife. <grin>
It worked, She loves me - or feels sorry my long face after taking the keys to her R1200gs back <hehehehe>
wana buy an almost paid off '02 lt <big grin>
hmm let me figure this
actually BMW Credit thought my credit is good enough and the wifes income was better than enough <hehehe> ahh heck I quit smoking so I'
m taking back my smoke money from the wifes payment and applying it to my payment, so the bike really only cost HER about 40% of the payment or so
Now if I just add the cost of gasoline to go get the smokes everyday and the other stuff I bought while i was there (like a candy bar soda or red bull)
that I no longer buy, well heck I'm way ahead of the payment !!
see how easy it is to justify the payment!
<grin>

Man, I like your accounting technology! Sounds like you'll be able to make the payment and still have some left to put in the bank! Would ya be willing to help me with my taxes next April?

I've been infected by the GSA bug. Maybe it's time to give in.

I can't see it being a bad thing <g>
the steering is a tad different on the GSA than the GS, the GS has a little quicker steering, with the pivot point being mounted not quite a degree differently (aloowing a shorter rake on the GS over the GSA from what I was told) the GS also has a tad longer wheel base, shorter in height and lighter.
2k less for the gs than the gsa or so.

I can't see it being a bad thing <g> (that I've been bitten by the GSA bug)I told my wife tonight that I want sell my aircraft project (building an experimental aircraft) and buy a second motorcycle, the R1200GSA. Me thinx that she thinx that I've lost all good sense. She kinda get's my passion for flying and likes to get places fast (when I use to own a 1/4 share of a plane). However, she's terrified of motorcycles and only tolerates this passion.
Ideas on how to explain the passion when her attention span is less than a minute?:confused:
