Point? 19 years old, in college, love motorcycles. I've leaned a bit on my father's motorcycle while at home. While away at college, I learn to control my friends motorcycle well enough to take the test and get a license. I excitedly call my gf up and let her know. Ultimatum: you pickup that license for the bike and we're through!
Stupid me, doesn't pick it up.
years later, after we're married a couple of years, I talk her into letting me retake the test and get a motorcycle...years later, motorcycle issues and LOTS of others, end in divorce...
not worth it! And, hindsight is 20-20 
Good luck! You won't need it with the SS, but you will, well...you know |
a real woman (or MAN) will appreciate your passions -- I mean, I can see her being concerned about your safety on a motorcycle -- but...there is a way to express concern without forcing an ultimatum....
The only time I ever insisted my ex give up something he loved doing - i.e. his band -- was because he abused my trust and used "band practice" and gigs to go out and screw other women -- otherwise I had never cared, it was his "thing"....
Granted....he's the "Ex" for that reason but....
