I am doing a little research for a friend of mine that wants to write a self-help book for chicks that date/marry guys with Harleys. The reason this is limited to Harley owners is that the phenomena we are going to discuss is for sure a Harley thing, and we don't know that it is applicable to owners of rice grinders or other crotch rockets. So, don't take it personal. If it is something that happens with rice also, please feel free to add your observations.
The phenomena is this: Chicks get envious of their husbands/boyfriends/both Harleys. It is inevitable.
Scenario 1. Guy has a Harley, meets a chick. She thinks it is great, and always wants to go riding with him. After she is in the relationship a while, she starts feeling that the guy pays more attention to the bike, than to her. She gets mad, relationship dissolves.
Scenario 2. Guy and gal are a couple. Guy gets a Harley, chick loves it at first, then eventually she starts feeling that the guy pays more attention to the bike, than to her. She gets mad, relationship dissolves.
There are certain truths that will be brought out, like, yeah, we are paying more attention to the bike than her. But why is that? Why are we willing to spend hours primping the bike, and willing to spend $1,000's on fixing her up, that probably could have been spent on the chick, but we opted for the former.
Yes, I know there are exceptions to every rule, so no need to chime in with "my g/f and I have been together for 6 weeks and she loves my bike, and I love her." Yeah, yeah, that isn't why I am conducting this survey.
Discuss.
