While shared with my street bikes, Patti's car (she inexplicably fails to share my garage priorities) and my truck during the frigid months — a Honda Ridgeline, naturally — it's still an effective workspace and retreat. The limited space forces me to channel my efforts on one, or maybe two, projects at a time. I also have a roomy workspace in the basement for parts storage, detail work and cold-weather tasks.
The bikes pictured above are: a VFR project in the foreground, since moved on to a new owner; my personal '90 naked VFR750 behind it; barely visible against the wall is my '81 XL500S big-bore dual-sport; and to the right our ST1300 ABS and my much-loved '92 Yamaha TDM850. If you're not familiar with the unique TDM (no worries, most riders aren't), here's a link to my info page:

Some Of My Hoard
Some of these are sacrificial, meaning they will be chopped up to repair parts destined for restoration. I've gone to some trouble getting professional paint color-matching, and while not a big fan of restored/repainted bodywork, things are getting to the point of it becoming a necessity; good survivor pieces are becoming scarce.
