    Where in Minnesota are you and what dealer did you buy your Spyder from? Welcome to the Spyder group.

    Do what I do. My wife and I get an allowance each month to spend any way we want. It's our mad money. Than there are no arguments.

    Start attending the meetings. Hi, I'm Steve and I'm a Farkleaholic. Put some farkles that will benefit her and she'll be ok. Lighting, etc for safety is always a good thing.

    Actually, there are TWO known cures:
    1. Bankruptcy
    2. Death at the hands of an enraged Spouse.
    Neither one is suggested...

    Easy but expensive cure is to buy her a spyder, and add farkles to hers and then she can't complain when you farkle yours. That's what I did. Happy wife, happy life.

    My wife went through this when I had my first Harley. New parts were showing up all the time. The only time she got freaked out was when I changed out the sway bar. My new trike doesn't even raise an eyebrow. I just keep her in books, bee and cigarettes.

    I started with F4 windshield and a Lamoster Bluetooth, Fobos, and Ram cell phone holder. Then a Top Trunk and trailer hitch for my F3T. Then a laser alignment and Bajaron Swar bar. Then Two cup holders and Sena headsets. And now the Spyderpops bump skid. That broke the camels back!

    I am thinking about the LaMonster Wheel balances but I am trying to fight the urge!😩

    The last GF I had before getting married told me "It's me or that damn car of yours!" It was the longest burnout she had ever seen!!

    My wife has always called my bikes "the other woman" because I buy them bling and she gets jealous (just a little). She also says the Fat White Chick is the only other woman I am allowed to ride. Her words, not mine.
