Happy early Father's day to me - Wife brought me a gift today!

I was posting earlier in the May poll that my wife had taken my truck and left me her car. Well, knowing how I am, she never does that as I will take the car to the twisties and burn off the tires.

I had a hunch, but I didn't think she would go this far. She rolled up in the truck a little over an hour ago, she had taken the day off and driven half way across Wisconsin to purchase what has always been one of my favorite overall rides. She rolled up with a beautiful stock 1992 Gixxer 750, which was my favorite year of the older gixxers. I crashed one about 4 years ago and I've wanted another. Well, after all I went through in the past few months, she decided, along with my boys, that it would be the perfect Father's day gift. God bless this woman, she is so amazing! Now I have a project to play with as my recovery goes on. I have rafters full of aftermarket goodies that I salvaged off my old 92, so now I have the fun of fixing it up to my liking before I hit the road on it. Not to say I didn't already take it around the block.

I'll post up pics as soon as I get my new digital, I took my last one to the jobsite and there it will forever lay. I can tell you it has 16,000 miles, it's the retro 90's black/blue/pastel pink color. That will be changed for sure. Think I'll use the sceme that was sent to me for my 600RR racer, I loved that!

Updates as I move along in the build!! I'm back in the game again!!

Replied to ya in the other one, but she's a polar opposite of my wife. I got way too lucky when I found my wife, just wondering where the payoff is going to be later in life?

That is freaking awesome! Good on her. You must be living right. But you are wise to stand by for the reciprocal that will come into play at some point!
Enjoy your new toy!

She said it was as much as she could do since I got her the Cobalt for valentine's day. Took her that long to find it I guess.

Nice! I've thought about getting an older bike like that but I'm not equipped for a project.
Congratulations to your better half for her wife-of-the-year award!

Re: Happy early Father's day to me - Wife brought me a gift today!

forget what she bought that you don't know about, or what she did that you are soon to find out about...

What you need to be asking yourself is what is she doing with money other than the $2 you gave her for lunch.
