Thanks Ecosse,
It appears I did make myself clear. I have on occasion been known to ramble and all sense of understanding seems to....um...ahh....I'm sorry, what was I saying....Anyway, Like I said, I want my life experience to be heightened by my motorcycle, not ruled by it. I have many other responsibilities that come before my 2 wheeled wonder. My family, and my job that provides for my family. If I put myself and my bike before these things on the priority list, I would be one of 2 things, a "true" biker or a self centred prick with a motorcycle.
