Show me your garage setups!
Discussion
Some interesting set ups there, I always get jealous over these threads, both over the garages and bikes!
A previous owner of the house shortened my garage to make a utility room out of the back of it, so ive lost some valuable room there but I currently have the RDs squeezed onto the RHS.
500 cuddles up to the fridge freezer..
GSXR and Mrs Ps CBR other side.
My one luxury is a Costco storage rack thing..
My KR1 lives at my friends house half hour or so away, no room at the inn for that but Id love to have it in the conservatory but Mrs P wont budge on the bikes in the house number..

Although I'd love a monastic moto GP style pit garage lined with steel cabinets, the reality is that I do like a bit of organised chaos. Mine is a 1980's standard single garage, best thing is that there is a door from the kitchen so brilliant for winter projects, down side is that it doubles as a utility room and general dumping ground for all the crap that comes with family life.

I moved house last week and now have a garage! Last place had a porch which was just big enough to squeeze the bike in and no more. So this feels like real luxury. Walls and floor will be getting painted. Bought a new suite for the living room so I'll be inheriting the old sofa. Then I just need wifi and a workbench
you do realise the roads aren't carpeted, so your bike will have to touch tarmac on the way out?Fleegle said:
5? Is that all?? I have 6, one in a box and room for a beer fridge
I can't get in it though for bloody bikes
as a student we managed 6 bikes, 4 push bikes, a punch bag and tools in a single garage, with two motorbikes and two push bikes being commute on daily, with obviously the wrong order of bikes every bloody day.I can't get in it though for bloody bikes

Nice collection, what can I see there, 2x MV f4's, Rsv Mille, RSVR, Mondial Piega and a blade? I'm still a yoof so still live at home. This does mean that I get a nice big 2.5X size garage to use although it's full of a lot of st.
To the left of my tuono there is a work bench, fridge-freezer, freezer, tumble dryer, lawnmower etc. Then theres a load more crap up in the roof. If I had my way I'd clear it all out and have half for my bikes and half for everyone elses stuff. At the moment my mums car goes between my bikes so it's a bit annoying.
We moved house at the end of last year, so there's still a load of ste in there. But, it's getting sorted.
It's only a single garage but I have a bike lift and I've made a bench and a stand that goes over the dryer (which sadly has to live there too) and we've put some more lights up.
Plan is to get a storage shed for lawn mowe, BBQ etc and maybe a bike or two so the garage can be just a workshop.

Went from a standard single last year, to a 18x20 ft job, obviously lots more room for car and bikes, painted walls white, had lots of lights installed, and covered the floor in plastic tiles, nice to kneel on and helps to keep it cosy. Added a decent Costco work bench and some cheap plastic shelf storage.
Spend lots of time in there now

I have 2 bike dens, this is the attached front garage for bikes I use most often: 18 x 10', insulated/heated, alarmed, CCTV, radio/internet plastic tile floor, storage room above for bulky parts etc. Pretty simple, just some shelving, wall hanging bits, biker tidy for gear.
Also have a 16 x 14' stable based workshop at the rear, its more of a messy project work place and home to older bikes not ridden very often.
