I don't see how you can make such a statement. Spend whatever you want, even if it's just for wall art. If you want a nice thing, (bike, watch, car, etc) and you can afford it, who cares how much it costs?
If having the nicer bike makes you happy, or makes you want to ride more, then why not?
Besides, have you seen bike prices lately?
