[quote=Anonymous]				I’d not be pleased with a husband who told me something anything was “nonnegotiable”.  You will get support because it’s a motorcycle, but the real problem is his attitude. I’d probably divorce over this because I won’t be dictated to by a peer.

Now onto you, op. Did you think the bike was sexy or fun before you had kids? Do you get to ride the bike with him or have your own bike? Does he go out riding and come home not wanting to do fun things with you because he’s already had fun?  Does he insist on riding no matter what because “that’s who I am”? 
To the poster who wonders why her husband keeps his bike when it just gathers dust, he keeps it because he likes it. I wish I’d hung onto my drum set. I didn’t have space for it when my husband and I got married, though looking back, I should have made the space. It very likely would have gathered dust once we had kids, but oh how I miss it. 
To the people predicting doom and gloom, that’s what this board does. It’s doubtful he’ll be sitting home with the home health care worker while you go out, decent men won’t go out with a married woman, so the “dates” will be “come over and f***” during the workday” which means you also won’t be going out on Friday night. 
Do get life insurance, long term care insurance and disability insurance. Get a power of attorney that can only be invoked  if he’s on life support in the hospital. This isn’t your time to force him to let you make all decisions because the first thing you’d probably do is sell his bike which is abusive, op. You don’t have to like the bike or the husband, you can get rid of the husband, but you can’t manipulate things so you keep the husband and sell his bike because “I’ve got power of attorney” 
You’ve also gotten good tips on how he should ride, how he should behave when he does ride, and I’d think about that assuming you still like the husband.

Admittedly op, I’ve got the thrill seeking gene and my dad rode a motorcycle. Dad is still alive for those of you wondering. [/quote]
