Either he isn’t in a place in his life where he can afford a toy, or he was looking to a bike for the wrong reasons…

I wasn’t trying to talk him out of it either, just make sure he knew about the costs before buying in…

It’s kinda like buying a Prius to save $5-10 per week…doesn’t justify the extra cost, but if you are buying the Prius because you will feel better about doing less damage to the environment (or even to get the approval of “Greenies”), then you can justify the 50% extra cost over the Corolla…but in dollars and cents, it will actually cost you more than you will recoup.

Later.
