You can't repress a competitive drive...he'll either repress the feelings and have them come in other ways or he'll resent the repression...
If he's not being unsafe and if you can afford the bike, I say go for it.
If he is being unsafe, you need to discuss your concerns so that he understands (but he'll still likely go for it)
If you can't afford the bike, then he needs to sacrifice something else to make sure that things stay in balance...this will also assure that it's a true desire and not a whim
PS: Silver is saying in the background..."Gosh, whenever one of the girls says 'I want a bike that I don't need', the groups says 'Go For It'...so, shouldn't the same standard apply to the guys are supportive of us????" I promise, it's Silver saying that and I'm dictating!!!!!
