My shop consists of a toolbox and a chair.  Both portable of course!  ;D

You see that street corner there in my avatar???? That's the exact spot I worked on my bike day in and out during college. Was right infront of my dorm room. I got to know campus security and the local PD quite well with all the noise I was making.

I told the wife last night, there is room for at least one more bike.  She said OK, so now I gotta' find something cool.  Maybe a CB160?

        Hey okie,

                      That's a shop? ???  ;D ::) Looks more like a museum to me. ;D Seriously though, that is one fine looking shop you have there okie! ;) 8)  Some folks don't have much space for their work area and some folks may have too many bikes for their work area. Then their's me (and maybe some folks like me) that has a small work area AND too many bikes (even though they are ALL projects) also! ::) I'm still trying to get things worked out so that I don't have to move things out of the garage just so I can work. ::)

                                                  Later on, Bill :) ;)

I told my wife that there was room in my garage for at least one more bike, so she brought home a Hells Angel! :(
I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

This is where my partner and I were working on his RF600 (I know... suzuki how COULD he!!).

Just as well the sun was shining!


 Just to the right of the tail of the bike you can see the rear of our carport "garage" which will probably be housing my Cb350F soon!!

Mine doesn't run yet though.

Singer of the band I'm in runs a motorcycle paint shop. Bigger than it looks in this pic. Behind the drummer's hot rod is a pool table/work bench, with a heated air conditioned one bedroom apartment in the back. Loft above it where the band rehearses.

I'm as interested in that bass as I am in the car.  What is each?

I can't believe how organised you guys are.  Your mothers must be so proud.

Car is the drummers, a 23 T-Bucket. 327 from a Vette, high rise intake, posi rear out of a 57 Chevy, bad ass car. WAY too fast.

Bass is mine, 1955 EH Roth carved top. Plays like a dream, sounds even better. http://www.myspace.com/thedownshifters

Shop? Well here's a couple of the garage/shop:






I think I need a bigger garage. The rest of the bikes are stored in an enclosed trailer next to the garage or down in the barn
A good bike mechanic only needs two tools, WD40 and duct tape. If it doesn't move, but should, use the WD40. If it does move but shouldn't use the duct tape.

It's a mess at the moment, what with those gosh darned motorcycles taking up floor space. Did I really say that!!

Compressor for the bead blast cabinet still to come.

PS. Anyone know how to clean a sheepskin apart from throwing it in an industrial washer?

You guys all have so much space. Your workshops are bigger than my house!! I guess that's what I get for living in poor little overcrowded Blighty!!
