Although you could have out something under the front wheel and paddock stand to protect the bike??????:mand:

I have a long held fantasy about a garage/workshop with a staircase and trapdoor leading to living accomodation above.
I think its partly so I can have the teapot and the stereo within easy distance.

Leave the indicators flashing, a bit of tinsel here and there, a few baubles, presents underneath, result.

Looks good, how do you manage bringing the bike in the living room without the road dirt?

For practical reasons, would prefer a viewing glass wall between living room and the adjoing garage.

Utopia Barry Sheenes wife had the right idea!!!!
If I won lottery I would have a garage and living room come showroom front room thing.
I would chuck out most of my tat... have a big cupboard or humungous ottoman for secret tat...
then a very spotless area for the bikes.
I would prehaps have 5 or 6 dream garage bikes and because I am so short I would hire a little man to take them out for rides :)

How do you manage to stop road dirt coming in?
you have a sprinkler system set up so as you ride in it cleans your wheels then a warm air jet to dry the bike and warm you up after a ride...

I have thought about this ........ this is the by product of being an imsomniac.

Dont need to be that - I rebuilt my Pantah in the kitchen - steering lock prevented the living room.
that said I polished the 1953 Royal Enfield 350 Trial in the living room - greater slow speed manoeuvrability!

I was sorta hoping that right at the end he ran into the rising arm barrier.

Purely out of jealousy you understand :mand:
