Tough decision. Toss coin infront of your wife, make it 1 time, tell her it's coin's will. Remember to get 2 coins with both heads and both tails, then you are in control.

oihh....u always do this kind of thing when it comes to her uh??

Gotta bite the bullet my friend, let it go when you can still fetch a good price for it. Your BM will be your primary and the VFR will just sit in a corner and continue to loose its value.... just my humble opinion

Yah, agree with Cyclops on biting the bullet. Of course it would be ideal to own both, but knowing that you will have the extra cash to handle emergencies in life or enjoying simple luxury comforts when u would like to with your wife and family is also a good thing

 

It would probably be more practical to get a lower maintainence bike as a spare in case your GS needs to be at the workshop for a while (touch wood)

 

Cyclops has got quite a good combo though... an RVF for that sports feel and a GS for touring

 

As for me, I have my trusty DR650 as my everyday workhorse
