They key, as shreddr knows because I told him when we went for ride, is to marry one who rides. In 1976, I was a motorcycle tech at Ralph's Cycle in South Orange, NJ and I saw somone ride back to the service entrance on a Honda CB350. When the rider took off her helmet and I realized it was a female, I bolted for the door and beat the other tech, Bruce, out of the back entrance. 33 years later, I'm still working on her bike, although, she doesn't ride quite as often. But I never get the pushback on anything I want to do or buy with motorcycles. You've got to b e thankful for that.
