Well, if a bike is unsatisfactory, modify or replace.

If the missus is unsatisfactory ....
See if you can convince her that it might be fun for her (show her lots of
piccies of biker chics having fun).
See if you can get her to understand the power it will give her.
She has to be entitled to toya and baubles of equal value.
You will have to earn domestic credits to get day passes.

If you are of a suitable age, point out that most men going through mid-life
crisis get a mistress. It can be a bike.

Failing that .....

I recently took a friend for a ride on the back of my old gpz900r. She hubby
always had a bike but she hated it. Now he is moved out. She got herself a
bike licence after I convinced her to get on the back with me one time.
She said she got so horny being on the bike, she thought she might bonk me
when we got back home. Thank god that didn't happen. What would my missus
think.
So get the women on the bike just once and maybe her hormones will make the
decision.

Hi Gordon,

Sounds terrible - I can only imagine life without a bike. It would be so
empty.

I think you have to subtly make the connection that you + bike = complete
happiness and peace which then you will want to share with her, being such
an important part of your life... which can only = her long term happiness.

Perhaps you should explore the reasons she has against the owning of a bike
and find strategies to calm her fears or justify the expense. Luckily Lisa
worked it out quickly that riding had become very important to me in many
ways and so I managed to (only just) justify the cost of the ZZR600. We
weren't expecting the gear to be so pricey but she has a great degree of
comfort in wearing good gear and really enjoys the time we spend on the
bike - whether it's at low speed along River Road to Wisemans or at a
naughty pace beyond Timbuktoo. It's taken some time to get to this though.
Certainly riding = happy Davey = better life for Lisa! You just have to
have a few $$ spare for the argument that "that bloody bike is all yours and
cost $XXX. What do I get??"...

If she isn't an experienced pillion, make sure you take it easy with her and
don't push her boundaries too quickly. Lisa wasn't comfortable with more
than a few kms in the first week or 2 but soon was OK on trips to Nowra
(from Sydney) and now weeks away on the bike. Gently gently catch ye
monkey. No big throttle openings, unless she's a speed freak (like my crazy
sister!).

So the approach should be something subtle, introducing your heartfelt need
to return to bikes (misty eyes are good here) - you only live once and want
the best possible life together... this can only be enhanced with a bike...
etc. and how you want to share the great freedom and joy of it all with her.
Perhaps she'll side with you and see how you being happy can only benefit
her.

Of course you could just go out and buy one.

Good luck and let me know how you go.

Cheers,
Dave ZZR600 => ST2 (stolen) => '03 XX

She'll abandon you once she's extinguished the last of your spirit and
will to live. Then you can get another bike.

I managed to convince my other half I needed a bike by focussing on how not
having one affected her. Without it she has to drive me to the station at the
butt-crack of dawn, pick me up in the evening, and put up with me working on
the weekend to make up the hours lost using public transport.

I'm now the proud owner of a '97 ZZR600.
