I've decided I'm keeping the 675.

It's mainly to piss off IZ.

Not really, but ;D

I'm still waiting for the dealer with my KTM to call me and tell me the title is there so I can go get it.  It's been 3 weeks and I'm still riding the 'umph.

I can't stop liking it enough to trade it in.  It fits me too well.

TJR178 and I F'ing ripped it up yesterday and it was an awesome time!  I'm talking full on badness, hooliganism and squidlyness- tripple digits, a little stoppie action, wheelies down the on ramps (and else where)  I wish I was better at them.  Yeah, I said it.  Lots of lean angle, great curves, strawberry ice cream sandwich and gatorade at the gas station, a couple new (and awesome) roads.

I have to keep this bike.

And get the KTM too.   [evil]

I don't know what I'll do with 3 bikes, but I'll have fun figuring it out.  Actually 5 bikes if you count the 2 old Honda CL350's sitting off to the side ;D

I've pretty well adjusted to living on my own.  Laundry, no problem.  Shopping, got it.  Cat boxes  :-X um, yeah, Im on it.  She comes around about once a week to gather up some more of her things.

Probably this weekend I'll help her move her couch, then I'll need my own couch.

Heading to a HUGE garage sale in a subdivision near my mom and dad's house on the 6th.  Taking the trailer hoping to score deals on furniture :D  I'm sure I'll find something.

^True story^

That was definitely a good time.  That road out of Findley Lake was pretty sweet!  You're obviously comfortable on the 'umph.  I can't wait to check out the KTM though!

Let me know if you need furniture.  I have a couple dressers and a TV stand in the basement.  Oh!  I have some very 90's looking window decor too :)

So this is likely my last update to this thread.

She's been out since last August or so and at the beginning of the month we signed the last of what needed signed in front of the notary.

We both got our letters this week that say we're divorced.

So I suppose Im a free man now.  Not that I wasn't before, but it's legal now.

Im dating a great girl and it looks like things may go far with her. 

The 675 is long gone, replaced by a sweet 07 KTM 950 Supermoto R that I've lusted over for about two years.

I got ducpainter's old DOA 750ss track bike and have already finished the 900 transplant.  Future plans for it include forged alum wheels and I'll probably build a titanium frame for it.  Sure it's light, but I just want to do it.  ;D

When I got the letter in the mail a couple days ago, it was just another day.  We only have to get through tax season together and that should be all she wrote.

I kept my house, my car, tools, bikes and my pets. 

That's pretty much what matters to me so I'm happy about that.

I don't regret the 6 and half years I was married, but I am happy to be able to start life again.

Not too much else to say.

Oh, wait.

Especially for ADG who wrote this in another one of my threads:

Your spouse will get everything after the divorce, gloat boy.

The day you posted that I bookmarked your post and waited.

I waited until today, almost five months later, when I would get to post all of the above to throw it all back at you because I knew that I, for a fact, would lose nothing in my divorce.  I knew you were just a shallow, arrogant piece trying to be inflammatory because you had nothing better to do and no sense of self worth to go find some way to amuse yourself.  And now I'm calling you what you are.

On one level it bothered me that what you wrote stuck with me.  But as I thought about it I wasn't really bothered.  I wanted it to stick with me so that in the end I could put you in your place and let you know how worthless you are to me.

So to sum it up:  I win.

You can get down on your knees and suck it. 

That is all.

One final note:

I just wanted to thank everyone for coming out and lending moral support.  It means a lot, and it really shows what a great place this is.

I'm glad to be a part of it all.

Man, sounds like you really landed on your feet. That's awesome; really respect you for the approach you took to the whole thing, and I hope I've learned something from it. Best of luck going forward from here.
