haha! I LOOOVE the stored for the winter one!

O man, I wish my wife would let me bring MY bike into the house.


I'm going to have to show her that one!

"See! Look! Other guys bring THEIR bikes into the house!"

(Great scenery in the other pics also btw).

Front room view

I showed my wife the pics and gave here a "come hither" look..... Nope, not happening. I can't even store mine in the garage at home anymore, apparently, that is where minivans are supposed to park:eek: I have mine in the office at my shop now, some tricky manouvering for sure to get 3 in there, 4 if you count my motorized beer cooler (nicknamed Harley):D

Interesting...my wife asked whether we could fit her '94 545 Virago in my office :rolleyes: since it won't fit through the door to our house across the patio...fortunately, a well-made cover seems to work in place of our lack of garage space...

But if sanity departs me again and we wind up moving (for the LAST TIME :eek:) the new place must have space for at least one car/van and two or three motorcycles/scooters...

But...back to work...temps are rising and in a couple of hours it should reach the mid-70s -- and takin' the Streak on a lunch appointment with a client...let him eat his heart out :D

My worst trouble came from using the kitchen oven to bake cylinders and heads off a '46 Knucklehead Harley...replaced valve guides in the heads, then sprayed heads and cylinders with wrinkle-black paint....

The parts came out looking killer...particularly after sanding the cooling-fin edges and finishing them off with a clear coat so they'd stay shiny...

It DID cost me kitchen access for a month -- but took only two weeks for the oven to stop smelling like hot Harley parts :rolleyes:
