Hi Guys
I bought a new toy today
Honda VTR1000F

Now I need to mae more space in the Garage

With a road bike,2 dirt bikes,2 minimoto's and many kid related toys
(bikes,scooters,skateboards,and various other things (including the wifes car)

Has anyone got any good idea's for storing the PBs?
like hanging them on a wall bracket or somthing

I know they dont take up to much room but have farings and spare frame too
I thought you guys might have some good idea's to (hide) some stuff

(and NO wife wont park her car outside)

Cheers
Grant

park the bike in the lounge,then see how much space suddenly appears in the garage for your bike and you didn't have to do a thing


you may not get called suger for a while :pinch:

build the garden shed or buy one

You know, I was looking in my garage today and thinking, "A fire is the only way to sort this crap out."

It's a thought.

We live in a townhouse in Auckland so not really any room for a shed.
Carport was closed in to make the Garage
We have very small back yard and cobble stoned BBQ area.

Bike trailer is on the only spare bit of land
So Shed wont really work

And cutting up her car would solve one problem and create a HUGE one :yes:

Dont really want to sell anything either.
Just need to rearange things a bit ...well hide them better really

Nice VTR and toys Grant, you must have a very understanding wife so you don't really want to upset her eh?:sweatdrop

Have you thought about hanging push bikes, scooters & anything light from hooks in ceiling or walls?

Pocket bikes could sit on strong wall mounted shelves/free standing shelves like those ones from Bunnings.

ciao.

Hi Al
Had a bit of a move around and it seems better.

Good idea about looking at bunnings
Should be able to find somthing to hang the pocketbikes on.

Found a good solution
Wife is going to buy a smaller car (Suzuki Swift)


Cheers
