new R3T owner,nobody feels for me,its OK

Welcome!!! No I will not feel sorry for ya! Heres why..........After 2 yrs of lusting after the R3, Triumph came out with the R3T. I was estatic! Waited till Dec 08 and decided to purchase.......Talked it over with the wife on several different occasions.....she clearly was NOT on board.......So I did what any motorcycle loving man would do........I refinanced all the vehicles to a lower interest rate and factored in my raise and VOILA!!!!! monthly payment all accounted for and no effect on the family budget!!! Yaaa for me!!! Right???! Wrong!!!! Bought the bike and I couldnt even get the wife to go down and sign the paper work with me......first new bike I have ever purchased. Winter comes and I have the dealer store it until spring.......fast forward to spring and the bike is being delivered........and no the wife did not even come out to see it :mad: So I play it cool and learn to ride this monster. After a few months a friend of hers mentions going for a ride and now shes all in!!!! Cant get enough of riding.........I do however remind her of how she stripped me of enoying this moment in my life!!!!! The guilt trip has done me no good :D........so no I do not feel sorry for ya!!!!! :D:D

Enjoy the site!!
