Default Woo Hoo - Wife wants to start riding

My wife came to me today and decided she wanted to start riding. We scheduled the MSF course for us on the 15th and went looking at bikes. We get to the dealership and she sits on all the starter type bikes. She isnt crazy about the M50, (dont ask me? i love it), the c50 is too "porky", the 650 classic is ok etc....She looks over at the sports and says, "hey, those are cool"

We head over and she sits on the gs500, sv650s, the ninja 250, etc...Ends up she loves the look and the fit of the Ninja. Perfect choice, and I didn't have to say a word.

Then it gets interesting. She says" wouldnt it be cool if our bikes were the same style (not same kind, same type.)

Long story short, I traded the two week old M109R in on her Ninja and my new 06 SV650s with all the factory bling.

Funny how STUFF happens.
