A million dollar insurance policy. The dream of being a millionaire changes everyones outlook on things.

 

Be more helpful Birthday Boy! He didn't ask for questions only answers....

 

i think you save up your money and then you find the bike you want. Then you give away your money.

 

How old's the GF?

 

First, how much experience do you have on a bike?

 

Quit being so indecisive just give the guy an answer.

 

You get to decide...If she's not willing to talk about it, then is having a bike or a girlfriend more important to you.

TONS of folks have had this battle, and if she's not even willing to discuss it (and I have to assume she's not because you came here to ask what to do) then you need to think about the impact of a long term relationship with her - If you DON'T get a bike, Will you reset her for it? If you do "talk her into it" - Will it be at the back of her mind?

As far as what bike to get - How much riding have you done? Safety classes? Other bikes you've owned?

 

sign both yourself and your girl friend up for the motorcycle safety course.

 

Take appropriate safety courses, get licensed, get insured, get bike, ride and don't look back.( figuratively, not literally)

 

8 years xp on dirt bikes from 85cc to 250cc 450cc

 

who needs the women I'll find one who rides im just going to sneek it and ride with my friends and if i die i die happy.

 

I bought a bike and asked for forgiveness later. My mom was mad for a couple days but whatever. She's still my mom today.

 

Buy a bike,if she stays with you cool... if your girl leaves you'll be able to get another chick with the bike... It's a win win...

 

Get the bike. . . This shouldn't even be a question.

 

Im still curious as to how old the OP is? Parents are involved you say. They were ok with dirt bikes but not street bikes. Do you work full time? Can you afford the bike payment, insurance, ect. ????????

 

ATGATT
And take a Cali Superbike Course (or 4) if they come to a track near you...

 

i plan on paying cash its just a waiting game now.

 

Same.

Mom wouldn't let me get a bike when I was 19. I needed her to cosign a loan for me which she had no problem doing, but not for a motorcycle.

So I worked my ass off, saved money, and bought one. She was mad for a few days, but eventually she stopped. Since then, I have had 3 bikes, lol

 

You can buy my bike it got me the girl, and then I crashed and got some cash so now she's happy either way and I hardly ride anymore. So $4500 and its yours with 2 helmets, one for you and one for the new gf lol

Get the bike. Unless your really in love then maybe skip the bike.
