Default You know what this garage needs?




I think it needs another bike.



An attempt to acclamate the new arrival to its new home.



There is still room for more as far as I can tell.

Thanks...it's getting a little ridiculous, but I have nothing else to do so whatever.

My old man had a CB 550 that he ran his mobile locksmith service with for 15+ years. Had well over 200k on the clock and still ran like a top when he sold it.

The KLR and Harley run. Those are my dad's. The KLR is a blast to ride for short rides. Anymore than 100 miles and my whole body feels like a tuning fork.

The Honda fires up, but seeing as it has no rear wheel, swing arm or chain on it...it doesn't go anywhere.

The two Bridgestones...we have no idea about those. We got the gold one home last night and took off the rear wheel because it was locked up. The drums were seized up and all the aluminum inside was corroded. The whole hub was full of sand. We aren't sure how the sand got in there, but the guy we got it from didn't have the whole story when he got it, so he wasn't sure what it had been through.

This one has about 16K on it. I think it'll be a street bike when we get it operating properly.
