With both Keith & Willy inviting you to travel up from CT, I keep imagining a major road trip, forgetting the size of many New England states.

From here in the San Francisco Bay Area it's more than a half day to just reach the nearest state line.

My wife is broken i think. She just said why don't order that bike you want? I said i need to preorder it. She said, you should if you want it. Lol. She knows full well it's a 1/3 the cost of the other bikes I'm looking at.

Great news that your wife is supportive! So, when's the order going in?

Go directly to the store after work, and purchase the necessary products for an effective display of thanks. I recommend red wine and good quality chocolate. This event needs to be properly commemorated.

I also recommend the purchase of a lottery ticket, before your luck runs out.

Now see there? She *gets* it.
Once you have yours and see what you get for the money, you'll appreciate both the bike and your wife even more.

As you go through the break in, you will find yourself more pleased. After break in you will wonder why you even hesitated to buy. You should find your other bikes being neglected as you keep going to the RX3 because of the pleasure it brings.

Right up until the first valve adjustment. heh heh heh
