Back at my mums (where my brothers two GSXRs and all his biking stuff lives) until I secure a new parking spot at home...

This means I had to try and fit my Blade into an already packed garage with a wonky door Shocked

1 car garage now contains:
2x GSXR 750's
1x Honda Fireblade
1x 140cc Pit bike
25 x Tyres (of which 6 where on wheels)
1x Abba wheel balancer
1x Abba tyre removal tool
2x GSXR fairings, 1x tank and 3x exhaust
1x compressor
Multiple tools, loads of random bike stuff (leathers, waterproofs, helmets etc) and random non-bike related shit (tv's, rugs, large car toys etc)

Kind of happy I managed to squeeze it all in Very Happy

Where do you live? I could help make some room, so could a few more people. That door doesn't look very secure, didn't notice any locks either.

Loads of space you ain't using in that garage. Save the floor space for the bikes and get everything else up in the air.

I like but ... anybody could see that.

Wonky door could translate to weak/easy to break in.

Some not so hard digging could probably result in that location being discovered.

I am hoarder too...
Binned half of everything I never use then half of what was left...
I'm left with 1 NSR, CBR600, multiple cycles (blame the wife), tools, fridge, freezer, tumble drier, bench, desk, tools and vegetable oil settling tank...

So much room, tidier/cleaner. Empty.

A little regret Sad

Don't wash your bikes with hot water, you might shrink them like you did to the Jag and Range Rover.

How exactly though?

You'd need to know the town and area and preferably the age of the houses in the street etc surely to try and find OP's house from a pic alone with no road name etc?

Sure you might see some number plates, but your not supposed to be able to get hold of keepers addresses from DLVA are you?

My garage* is full with just the one bike. Less spare space than the op's but a little more secure by the looks.


*building used to store a motor vehicle, if my insurers are reading this.

Garage door is simply wonky because the metal wire that holds it up got tangled, so I took it off. Plan to refit the wire this weekend. Once shut it sits flush and locks as any other garage door would.

The off road bikes are locked together (Trackbike & Pitbike). GSXR is locked up with a chain also. Blade sits as it is (for now).

5 pounds to be won, first person to inbox me the address wins. Good luck Laughing

Dunno. I've seen people have their addresses etc posted on here while thinking they were anonymouse (intentional spelling). Probably some digging for user names trawling old posts. Being a total sperg and driving every road ever ...

Stop asking me to justify silly comments! Remember you have to prove that I can't, that's how this stuff works, like Jebus.

Phones Embed GPS coordinates into photograph metadata, it may be in those pictures (maybe not though)

No reason the pic had to be taken on a smart phone or posted up on one either though!

There's some little things with specific housing estates if you know the developer and who they use for suppliers for various things maybe? Also if you could work out who a housing estates developer was, they might be regional only, which only slightly narrows down where a location of a specific house might or might not be? Remembering they often use the same house designs in multiple developments.

Things like noticing if the house had Cable tv or not would again in some areas be a possible clue to a region, but it's pretty much straw grabbing if the OP has never shown or named their location or street name in any previous posts.

You've got more chance of getting an address from a dodgy contact at the DVLA I would say than most of the above.

Pretty full.

https://i1302.photobucket.com/albums/ag134/Fladdem/PC140226_zps873285ff.jpg

There's an MT5, a C70, a Varadero 125, a TTR250, a CRM250 and a 140 Pit Bike. To go along with that is the spare wheels for the pit bike, the spare wheels for the TTR, the spare back wheel for the CRM asssorted knobblies, an MX tyre, an Enduro Tyre, A trials tyre a couple of dual sport tyres, a H100 engine, a box of random bits of assorted baby Honda strokers, a front end for an MTX125, about 15 push bikes, in that photo, since then I have acquired another MTB and started building a hybrid push bike in there, in front of the Stomp. Exhaust pipes for various motorcycles, a few different chain and sprocket kits for several bikes.

The backs good too, but I don't have many pics of that.
Under the carport used to live the jimny, Stomp 230 and mito , not shown

https://i1302.photobucket.com/albums/ag134/Fladdem/12241194_10203925116528567_946617744115136190_n_zpsjtbjsmga.jpg

Outside the carport was the RS and Super Four

https://i1302.photobucket.com/albums/ag134/Fladdem/11233498_10203925115968553_6961467531673498179_n_zpsuheqaj0o.jpg

Since had a shuffle round, and the jimny is out the front of the house, parked in front of the garage door Laughing

Under the carport is the H100, RS, Mito, Stomp and Super Four, the four 195/75/R15 AT tyres and alloys for the Jimny, the set of four 215/75/R15 MT tyres for the truck and three more push bikes, I think. and a roof rack for a volvo 240 estate, for some reason.

The shed has another 10 push bikes or so, five lawn mowers and other random junk.

Just call me Greengrass. Thumbs Up Laughing

I currently have 2 and nowhere to park them so I put them in a workmates driveway. He is very understanding.,.. Laughing

The shed in the house I'm buying should be good for 2, hopefully 3 but I can't remember how big it is. Hopefully larger than I remember (which is usually not the case when viewing a potential house to buy)
