    Default It's all his fault

    Everytime I test ride a spyder I get it. He should/t have let me test ride the new STS and I wouldn't have known what I was missing. So I just put a deposit on metallic silver sts. I would have been fine on my '08. Bare bones as it was. But then I drove the STS and it was over. That handling, braking, suspension, I was a goner. Don't get my wrong, my 08' was a gem, we had great times together and I rode the heck out of her, but the new girl is so pretty, with heated grips and a radio! I can;t wait to get her next week. It will be hard parting with the old girl, and she will be missed, but I can't wait for my STS!

    Guilty as charged

    She rightly pointed out to me that in the same time she's had the '08 GS I've had 2 new motorcycles so it's her turn. Honestly, the advancements they have made in ride, performance and ergonomics makes the upgrade a no brainer. I'm thrilled she's getting a new bike.

    They will be picking up the spyder at another dealer on Tuesday. I should be getting it on friday, work seems to always get in the way. I can't wait. I am amazed at the advancements made from my 08 to the STS. I didn't mean to make hubby feel guilty, I was more than happy on my '08, but he had to know that when I went on the test ride I would love it. That's what happened when I got the '08. I had to have it.

    Still his fault,
