Been lurking for a while, you guys all have some amazing ideas and ingenuity. Its inspired me to build a badass garage :rocker:

Just bought our first house 2 months ago. It has a 700 sq. ft. 3 car garage that I've been given free reign of, to do whatever I want. So I'm going with something a little wild and building myself a KTM garage to house my stable of KTMs, a Suzuki quad and a Suzuki GSXR.

So far I've painted the walls, put in some new racedeck on the single car side (going to do some welding on the two car side) and I've started building my work bench with 2x4's for framing and some ply wood and black melamine for the tops. Can't wait to finish it up, I have lots more planned for this man cave :3gears:

Ill take some pics when I get home from work tonight, built a 7ft x 8ft shelf next to the work bench and started working on my hanging cabinets with my kreg jig. The Racedeck is amazing, so much easier to slide my bikes around on their stands. Can't believe I waited this long to get some!

Little update, got the bench almost finished. Built the shelves, now just debating on sanding primering and painting the whole thing, or just staining it black. I dont like the look of bare wood, this is going to be more of a technical garage...hmm guess I'm off to do some searching on the matter. Anyone have any suggestions?

Looking good. That orange really makes the floor and walls pop. The work bench looks great. I need to do something similar in mine and may take some ideas from yours, hope you don't mind.

That looks great. What are you going to do when you buy a Husky? :bounce:

KTM for life. Have a 520SX, 525EXC, 950 Super Enduro, and am eyeballing a new super moto...KTM isnt going anywhere :D

Thanks for the compliments, and NCAudi, that's what these boards are for, I got a lot of my ideas from here as well!

Looks good man! Orange and Black is great!! Get all the **** off the floor and give us a good wide shot of the whole thing....Did you color match the wall paint to the race deck?

I used black melamine, 3/4", with 3/4" plywood underneath it. Came out great and super easy to clean up. Everything just wipes up off it.

Added a hanging LCD monitor that folds up out of the way, and some middle shelves to store my tires.

Really going to have to clean it all up and take some nice photos with my DSLR, its a never ending process though!

Did a little work. Im going to have to make a Gallery with this eventually. Painted and added a door to the top shelf. It swings up, have 2 100lb. gas struts on the way to have it flip up with a pinky. Not that I'm lifting **** with my pinky mind you :D

Poor other side of the garage still needs some love. But...but... bikes! :)
