DeadSpin

Leo must be in a funk, that’s right ladies and gentlemen. The compromise has been made, and Leo, as usual, took that compromise straight up his ass again.

It all started when Leo secretly brought a motorcycle. Not just any plain old cycle, but a Honda CB 1000.

This is basically the same as a CBR 1000, however, over here its called the naked CBR. The CB has the basics that a real bike needs. Two tires, a huge engine, a gas tank, and a seat to place my ass on. Classic styling and it was all mine for a steal. Brought and paid for, now I just had to tell the wife. This will pend on explosion, or maybe just expulsion.CB 1000 300x225 DeadSpin

I thought long and hard about when to tell her about this purchase that she was dead set against. I had the idea to tell her about 4:30 p.m. on Friday night, and the fuse was lit. Divorce papers are pending if I keep it or get rid of it. Screw it then, I’m just going to keep the damn thing then. Its a nice bike, and the divorce was a long time in the waiting.

Now don’t get me wrong, I love my kids and I have no desire to do myself in on a bike. I brought all of my protective equipment already. I have a helmet and a rider jacket coming in the mail as you read this article

Fuck it, I’m keeping the helmet and the jacket just for shits and grins. I’m taking the money from the bike and buying shit for the car to boot. Suspension, clutch, and a rear differential are in the works for the baby that I can keep.

Needless to say, the bike is going back to the original owner.

But hell, my Subaru WRX is gonna get the works.CA390217 DeadSpin

I can’t wait to make this all wheel drive car a rear wheel drive car.

That’s when the shit will hit the pavement.

~Love from Leo.

    A DorkChick point of view:  That bike is uber-sexy, I can’t deny.  However, when I got home, I noticed the dirt bike outside of the garage. Sure, it isn’t the almost-widow-maker scooter, but it was a bike, nevertheless. And, it truly scared me. Bikes have done that a lot lately. Then I mentioned, that it was somewhat hypocritical that Scubahubby could continue to ride, when I am not permitted to get a skate board. Even after the “proof”, my dad confirmed that I had one. And the logic, that one is not going as fast and is a lot closer to the ground on a skate board.  Well, of course, I got the answer that I have not been on a skate board about 20 years longer than Scubahubby has not been on a bike. And, if the doc can’t clear me to dive, that I probably have no business on a skate board yet anyway. Damn logic. Luckily, we do not have a doghouse. But the potential for me to have to camp out on the Big Assed Deck is still there. Updates to follow….

    BTW Leo, you might want to blur your plate numbers in that photo…

    Well, maybe it’s for the better…  You be the Fast and Furious car guy and I’ll do the two wheelers.  If it’s any consolation Leo, I’m jealous of your WRX.  I say go full rally with it.

    Much like my plans to get a skateboard, my mistake was making my intentions known beforehand…
