My rather unexciting garage when I first got it nearly 2 years ago lol it since been painted and thats about it...... my old pain in the **** (RIP) workhorse on the drive, was glad to see that go.

As cozy as new build garages are supposed to be, its abit longer than average you can comfortably fit my bike and a car inside :smt038.

EDIT: In hindsight as my neighber had his 749 pinched recently I'm gonna take the pics down lol

Not my garage, but my mates prior to our trackday, this can be used in an arguement to your other half when she says "we dont have enough room for another bike" ;)

Problem with having grown kids at home mate, quick list.

My SV
My CB500 Trackbike
Middle son's CBR600 Race bike
Middle son's CBF600
Eldest Son's Gixxer 600 Track Bike

The pile of garbage on the left is the remains of the written off CB500 I bought for parts for the trackbike.

In the shed, I wouldn't like to say, but I know there are 3 sets of CBR600 wheels with slicks, inters & wets.
2 sets of CB500 wheels with drys + set CB500 Wets
Full set CBR 600 Bodywork
2 std SV end cans
Numerous CB500 Road Tyres (all in good knick) in fact 1 pair is brand new.
CBF600 Under tray that my son can't be bothered to fit.
Plus other bits & pieces.
Maybe I should have like a "What's in the shed" competition :smt101:p

Hmm, my "garage" is a car port, the garage itself is just filled to the rafters with house junk.

In shot is a borked MX5, a borked Laverda 750, an often borked SV650. Behind camera is an A4 without an MoT. Looks like Arthur Daily's out here.

Re: your garage.
 
Laverdas are made to be looked at, not ridden - Well that's what Laverda thought :lol:
I had one for a while, nice bike when it ran.

LOL...this is a look into the future for me...as me and Im Indoors embark on the prospect of moving intogether soon. We will be mostly requiring a multistorey bikepark with integral house....this garage in the picture is too small, it only fits seven in. :smt042
For now I can fit 3 in my 10ftx8ft shed at a squeeze......you don't want to know where he puts the 7 of his

My garage is a bit empty at the moment, there's only an SV650, NC30, SR250, CBR600, 2 x TS50s, a GSXR750, 2 x minimotos and a Italjet 50 scrambler in there at the mo, a fridge freezer, workbench, toolchest, dustbin, calor gas heater, filing cabinet, shelves full of stuff plus all the other associated junk I've collected.

Taken half an hour ago.

Behind the CBR is a complete Italjet scrambler and a TS50X in bits, plus loads of junk that needs to go on ebay soon.

View of the remains of a GSXR750L, the rest of which is under a cover to the right of the yellow TS50X.

There's also a ZXR750J that's sat outside because it's too nasty to deserve a place in my garage, that bike's being broken and is awaiting collection by its owner.

Lol I was going to say Lozzo's garage is just like YC's, if it wasn't for his mam it'd always be like that....or is it the opposite way round :rolleyes: :)

dizzyblonde 10-04-08 08:41 PM

Re: your garage.
 
nah YCs garage is almost tidy, unlike Matts gaff- thats a house disguised as a garage.......its the stuff of nightmares

Haha, I picked up the filing cabinet this week for storing parts in, but that plan went the usual way. It's now got a drawer full of larger and delicate tools, another drawer full of Haynes and OE manuals, top drawer is for parts relating to the bike being worked on at the time and the other drawer is full of smaller stuff that's destined for listing on ebay. I think I need another 4 drawer filing cabinet

I know exactly where everything is in my garage and I also know when stuff is missing or been borrowed by my housemate.

I'm glad there are soem other garages out there that have less 'controlled chaos syndrome' than mine. ;)

Though mine has improved on the last photo of it that appeared in the original garage thread it's still not to Kwak standard yet. :oops:
I'll try to remember to take a photo... once I can find my camera again from amongst my Uni junk piled up in my study over easter break. :roll:

There's a story behind it. When me and the ex bought that house new the garage hadn't been built, so we tipped the builders an extra 3 grand cash and they extended it by 4 foot. No planning permission or anything like that, they just took the cash and did as we asked. We once had some mates round for a party, there were 12 big bikes and my Vauxhall Combo van in there, and you could still squeeze between the bikes. Have you spotted the wall sockets, they were everywhere all round the walls. Lighting was taken care of by four 6 foot doubles and two 5 foot singles all double switched , plus that little 60 watter in the middle for when the ex needed to get into the chest freezer (she got confused by all the light switches, so there was a little single one just for her)

I'l get a pic of my garage when I go home. I like the smell of a garage full of bikes and other mechanical engine stuff.
