What to do with my Bike????

[scot in exile]

I have six bikes in my garage at the present time have tried selling my 2005Rocket but as you know they are not worth much was thinking about parting the bike out would have to do the math and see if it was worth while.
My wife says you cannot have two of the same bike I cannot get it thru her thick skull that a 2005 red rocket and a 2011 black Roadster are not the same

Tell the wife it is like having a blender and a food processor.

That will go right over her head the only reason we have a kitchen is because it came with the house.

How about a purse and a Gucci handbags.

... or a bikini and a thong!

How about using the colors (Red vs. Black) as the logic. The Red Rocket is the 1st year, collector possibility? Use the mystery factor, you know, " this cycle could become valuable". Etc...

Just sell the 05 for whatever it brings. Buy the 11. Problem solved.

Give it to her so she can ride.

Problem is I bought the 2011 about six months ago, will not let the bike go for nothing that is why I will probably part it out even thou it is the cleanest bike on this site plus the most reliable Rocket that Triumph ever made.
70000 miles trouble free same TPS etc etc did replace the ignition switch but it never left me stranded.
