Show me your garage setups!

Casa del Bass..

The RS250 has sat on that bloody lift for years. Might actually turn a wheel in a week or two.
And there's usually a 2012 R1 hiding in the corner. It's out getting therapy for being so fecking ugly

RS250

Here is a terrible pic of my garage, big enough for 5 bikes and a decent sized workbench at the back for storing the parts I have left over when rebuilding things. No power at the moment as I have not long moved in but should be sorted in the next couple of months.


But I also have access to this with a few friends, kitted out with everything you could ever need, not bad for a hobby shop.

Here's mine (pre-clutter), 4m x 6m although the end 1.5m is partitioned as an office.



High level shelving for storage, it's actually the end 4m of a 13m x 6m building, the rest being my car garage. I partitioned this as a clean, bike specific area that's small enough to keep warm through the winter.

Nice, although the fastest thing is there is Alladins Carpet ...... you did well to acquire that !!!

Don't get creature comforts for fks sake.

My best mate is cracking bloke but his workshop area of his massive garage is like a fking IKEA showroom. He's got pictures hung up, laminate flooring, even his work bench is excess kitchen units which are nicer than the ones I use in my actual fking kitchen. He got a big screen telly in there the other month and used old bits of wood and scaffolding, which would seem a good cost saver, had he not spend a fortune on brackets. Vintage posters for Shell and other toy cars and st too. Also a fridge.

Garages/workshops/sheds should be poorly lit with fluorescent lights you found in skip, using the incorrect wiring you liberated from a building site, secured with the wrong screws you had left over from flat pack job over a decade ago. You should wire it yourself in such a way you feel the need to remind your loved ones to never, ever, touch the switches and sockets.

The walls should be initially white, then never cleaned again so they are dirty with hand prints, some of which will be blood from inevitable miscalculations that happen as an avid DIYer. There will be splashings of copper grease to ruin your best jeans when you pop in for a screwdriver, and pictures of naked women crudely taken from the daily sport. You are permitted a motorcycle calendar, but it must be at least four years out of date and stuck on the page of that bike you like because the rest "are for homos".

You are only permitted two comforts; your radio, which must be old and big enough to remind you of a giant flashing version of the obelisk from 2001: A Space Odyssey. The second comfort is your ongoing collection of spiders. You are permitted to call one of them Boris, in a quiet nod to the song "Boris the Spider", which your wife will never find amusing. Boris is typically the Alpha spider, and will decorate your working area with the corpses of lesser spiders, until one day he will scare the st out of you and you will chase him with a can of WD40 and a lighter. He will be unharmed. You will wonder how the flame didn't go back in the can and kill you like you were told it would as a child.

It's a functional building and you're a bloke. Don't go Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen about it.

Contender for one of the best posts of all time.

However you need to add about some furniture your storing, plumbing fittings you may use one day. Uneven floor, lack of plug sockets, and out of date paint tins

If you need to dispose of anyone you've just killed, now is the perfect opportunity.

I'm moving to a farm soon(true)and I am gonna have plenty of pigs to dispose of dead bodies. Shave heads and remove teeth first.

Here's ours, the building went up in February and so there's more to be done....
There are a total of five bikes to fit in here eventually, but as the old garage is still standing (just) we can keep using that as well.
