I pissed of the wife today

[roundhouse]

I am not the best mechanic to start with. I pulled the FZ1 in the kitchen and installed a Micron header, AIS block off plates, Graves velocity stacks, and changed the plugs to NGK iridium.

Started at 8am when the wife was at the gym. Just a few minutes ago I pushed it out and pressed the start button.

IT STARTED!

Seriously when I got the hawk I called the local mechanic who DID work on my FZ1 and he would not work on Chinese bikes forcing me to do so which ended up being a great thing. I learned so much. Thanks to all you guys who made DIY vids and such. I am no expert mechanic but had the confidence to do this and not pay the $450 the mechanic wanted to do all this work. I will say there were times today I felt like I had bitten off more than I could chew but I did it.

Wife should appreciate saving the $$$, right?

Anyway I am pretty proud of myself. Here is a pic, you can see the hawk through the door on the patio.

Lastly, IT SOUNDS LIKE A BEAST!

[cheesy]

We may never find your body.

[Darkrider]

Be sure to will the bikes to the forum for when she does find out!

[JerryHawk250]

She'll get over it …...eventually. :hehe:

Wife? Ain't had one of them in 18 years. Don't miss it. I would miss my motos thoughs.

sweeet

[Sir kayakalot]

That’s a good picture and I’m proud of you for jumping into that job and not paying someone else to do it. BUT....... you would have broke the internet if you just could have posted a pic of yourself doing a burnout in the kitchen

Ben2go, we have been together 27 years. She is good as gold.

sir kayak, my son said the same thing. I will push her near the edge but dare not OVER it. I like my man junk still attached where it goes.

:tup:I got back into the game to quick, a year after my divorce. My recent relationship just ended after 17 years. She wants to be back in KY with her kids and grandkids. I want to be out exploring the world, while I still have enough health and time.

[Pathfinders]

It happens.

[wheelbender6]

Better be making that dog house more comfortable before she finds out.

[roundhouse]

Rode it today. IT IS LOUD! Got it inspected as well. Idle sounds even better. Did not get on it but I reckon it will sound like Mrs. Godzilla reaching that special moment while Mr. Godzilla works his giant mutated lizard magic on her.

Just a hypothesis.

Wife is cooled off. I cooked and cleaned 2 nights in a row. Small price to pay and I got to pick what we ate. Not some Kale salad with unseasoned chicken breast. She is a great woman but a not so good cook.

[Pathfinders]

I have been living with her sister for the last 7 years.

[Megadan]

It's reading stuff like this that makes me feel blessed to have found the woman I have. Glad you are still around lol

I got pretty lucky myself. Only took three times.

Third times a charm. ;)

[Sir kayakalot]

Third times a charm. ;)

I will second that. Third and last time for me. Got the best woman a man could ask for

I've been with the same one for 29 years. I'll have to look for my future ex-wife to make it to three. lol

[Megadan]

It took the third one for me as well. I was just lucky/smart enough not to actually get married to them, but we were together so long and our lives interwoven so much that even those two previous relationships fucked my life up pretty good, just not to a "you lose everything" kind of level. I still have my house and posessions. :tup:

She may have cooled off, but you certainly haven't heard the last of it. Women are like elephants, they NEVER forget! (I still hear about stuff I did 30 years ago.)

I like sisters too. Unfortunately, my most recent GF didn't have one. :D

My mom used to joke, "I collect bells and thimbles. You collect women with our last name."
Gotta love Ma.

We have been at it the same amount of time JerryHawk, will be the big 30 for us in June. I only have had one wife thank goodness.

Mrs. Swampy should be up for Sainthood. ;-)

Mrs. C and I hit 44 back in November.
+1 on the elephant memory with the other half not forgetting, and bringing up, stupid or uncool stuff you did in the past. But, if you want to see some eyes bulge, veins throb, and hear some serious deep breathing, do the same to her. You’ll often also hear that what you brought up never happened. Even with photographic evidence.

Could NOT have been said better, cheesy...

She's definitely not done training you yet then! ;-)

Yes, if you do not get a stick beating everyday whether you deserve it or not, she is not doing it old school. (BTW of course I deserved it every day)
