Have a 12 by 24 building framed up where I hope to move before the end of the year and will need to set it up for the man/bike cave/shop and want to see pictures of what you have done for best use of your space etc. This is a chance to brag on your setup and show us all where you do your wrenching. Thanks in advance, Dave

LOL yeah Hoghead....my first wife wanted the bike out.......I delayed and delayed building a shed..................fast forward 2 years.............When I was dating Judy (current wife) I brought her to the house the first time and when she saw the bike there she says......."you park the bike in the house?" Im like, YES, is that ok? and she says"I wouldnt have it any other way" She ended up suggesting we park the pull behind trailer right next to the bike so its there too now. I knew she was a keeper right then  |

Not much room in this 24X30 garage anymore. Keep moving more sheet in and nothing out.  The handles sticking in the air are about as deep into the pit as you can get now without crawling over something. Vell, I done lost some pictures somewhere. Guess that is what I get for having them spread all over God's creation. Can't find nothing when ya want it but tomorrow I'll find them all. |

I now have a cover for Esmeralda, but still no protected area for her. I do have two of those 10'X10' pavilions that I can set up down there in the lower driveway, but that's it.  |

Guess I never have realized how fortunate I've always been. At the very minimum, I have had a carport, and a small storage shed, for every bike I've ever had. Can't picture ever leaving one parked outside, more than a night or two. I fell into my shop, when the lot directly across the street from me, came up for sale, and I had some bucks from my dad's estate. Sad, because he would have REALLY enjoyed the shop. He and I talk all the time, over there...

My Dodge Ram gets to sleep outside now when the lady needs attention! Otherwise they sleep together!   The little man of the house saw me working on my bike and came and parked his next to mine. I was told that one of his training wheels needs work and I better get on it! I wonder who the boss is sometimes.  |

I don't have any pics of the shop. It's not quite the way I want it yet. Been building it as I can afford it for the last few years. I'll get some pics soon I promise. In the meantime check out this other forum that I found when I started the build. http://www.garagejournal.com/Tons of good info on garage ideas. Try motorcycle in the search and be prepared to spend some time there. Here is one thread of just motorcycle shops I found real quick. http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=46792&highlight=motorcycle+shopNot affiliated etc etc. Don't think I'm breaking any rules posting links to other forums but if so I will delete asap. |
