    Motorcycle Garages Only

    The house and the garages is in progress.. and it will take some time since we are doing most ourselves. But this is my motorcycle garage. The cars will get their own detached garage, we are building this as we speak. There's not but on the walls yet, and I plan to get a small workbench and a...

    The bluish low budget workshop..and maybe:) later the garage ..

    Thx, I think the 964 models combine the old 911 shape and more modern technology/ comfort in a good way. I would have bought a 964 RS (Euro spec) if they weren't so expensive. But the stock 964 carrera 2 is much easier to live with on these roads. I do the most of the maintenance work on my...

    yeah, indian motorcycles are special:) Too bad this also reflects the price of one.. however the prices seems to be down quite a bit in the US. I actually have a chassis (no wheels or drivetrain) for a late '40s chief stored in Ohio, plan to ship it to Norway later. I'm still more into...

    The big one is a 1944 Chief and the small bobber/racer one is a 1939 Sport Scout(with a later engine etc) :)

    I bought the car(used) in California in year 2000, I was working in silicon valley at the time. The chrome wheels came with the car, and the brake air scoops was added when the car was repainted 6 yrs ago. I've used the D-90's for the winter tires the last 4 years, but the car hasn't been much...

    by the way.. "low budget" is probably not correct anymore... But we are trying to keep the cost down as much as possible, and I/we do most of the work ourselves.. From the start of this thread, this is how the old garage looked last autumn: quite a difference, right?

    The bluish low budget workshop..and maybe:) later the garage ..

    Long time since last update... After digging out most of the garage last autumn, the project was put on hold until recently. I've been busy working, and rebuilding my indian chief engine and fully restoring a 1960s russian "dnepr" K-750 motorcycle/sidecar combo. To keep warm during the quite...

    I guess it was a matter of cost, however I guess most would have used concrete in 1980 when the house was expanded. It's probably easier to have a gravel/soil floor with regards to water drain. I ran into some BIG rocks , so I need to cut and split the top off these.. But first we need to...

    I've been digging in the garage this weekend.. Had to start digging a bit out from the rear wall of the garage, as we need to find a place to store the stuff that was there. And I may have to stabilize the sidewall as they have "cheated".. and built the wall on top of loose smaller rocks. This...

    slow progress here... Have managed to paint the nearby rooms and staircase.. fresh white paint really makes the rooms look more attractive and larger. The staircase...was very dark before..: The room under the stairs looks much better now, still need to attend the door:) In the...

    have tried to find some good pictures of the jeep.. but no luck yet. I need to empty some more of the stored boxes from the last move, they are on a backup cd somewhere. The server (web) harddisk crashed one year ago.. The workshop/ cellar refurbish project have now expanded to all the rooms...

    Hei! I live in the southern part of Norway, in Vestfold "county". Just 2 hours drive south of Oslo, the capitol of Norway. Not all the stuff in the garage are mine:) We are a motorized family:) I sold the Ducati this summer, looking for something more comfortable to ride. So I only have to...

    So...enough about the old garage...over to the new workshop. I want to start with a low budget, and collect ideas as I go along. The workshop room is not very big, so no bikes will be brought in there. It's about 10 square metres.. The room was full of stuff, and quite dark, so I don't have...

    Hello world! I've been restoring/collecting vintage motorcycles for some years. Actually since I was like 21yr old or so, now 36. I've had several "workshops" or garages over these years.. ranging from the bedroom at a student's home to an icecold barn.. The first years I managed to...
