Powerband,

I am going to discharge my opinion about this, - but before I do I want make it clear that I am fully aware of anecdotal exceptions to what I am about to say.

Women usually look at their man as "a diamond-in-the-rough." So, after marriage they go about "polishing" their "diamond-in-the-rough." Then, after this man has been totally emasculated and is now "fully in-touch with his feminine side," this same woman will then say, "where is that guy I fell in love with that was sooo spontaneous & wild?"

Answer = you've emasculated him, - mam."

So, my answer to you is this, GET THE MOTORCYCLE YOU WANT, AND LET THE CHIPS FALL WHERE THEY MAY!

If you don't assert your independence (in certain areas), you are not you. You'd be pretending to be someone you are not (a feminized freak-of-nature).

"Speedmaster" is a title not a name, - and the title is not plural.
