Is it a bad thing to want to sleep in the garage next to the bike???

Yes, it's a bad thing.

The correct thing to do, is bring the bike into the house, and park it next to your bed.

Actually, when I bought my last motorcycle, a 955i Triumph Tiger, I did bring it into the house. I parked it in the dining room (tile floor), so I could clean and wax it. The kids thought this was great, but when my wife came home, she didn't see it that way (women are strange). Even so, the bike spent the night in the house.

When I brought my '07 FJR home - sad but true - I couldn't bring it in. I found it too difficult to negotiate the front door. Unless you have an extra-wide or double front door, don't attempt it. BUT, if you have a sliding-glass door on the back of the house...

You're my hero. If I was single bikes would be inside. But that mathematical equation over rules: Happy Wife = Happy Life.

It is a good story. Something to do with the color black cherry.

I'm going to take a real wild guess that the Corona Yamaha dealer is missing a 2007 FeeJ. If so, I hope you got a cut from them.

That's great! Where is Jordylad to brag? We want pictures!!

Yes sir he did. He just came over and picked up his old bike. He said he would post up later on. Yamaha did give me a $50 gift card and filled my tank for me for bringing him in.

If you've read every post from the past year there is nothing we can add except have fun and respect it till the tires scrub in. Congratulations.

Nah, make that "respect it til the tires scrub in, then respect it after the tires are scrubbed in".
