bigbiz,

I know what you mean with regard to have your wife back (the real one, not the impostor).

When I was 15 (a long time ago). I had a Honda XL 250. I rode that bike everywhere; school, work, weekend dirt biking and on trips to a distant rural airport where I was taking flying lessons. I went full-throttle everywhere; I was young and dumb but I had a blast and I was never seriously injured.

I hope you have tons of fun with your bike.
