I'm not against mounting something on the wall. Like a "stand" just want easy access.

Chinese bikes are not for me. Slightly irritates me local dealerships sell them but whatever.

 

haha i gotcha idk if you can do easy on this one thou!

they might not be but this was probably said years ago when Japanese bikes became a thing as well. now im not saying ill go out and buy one since the only one i do like is the 450s from cf moto but its neat to see something new from a different company that is being proven to actually be decent and budget friendly on some of the bikes. idk why they sell every other brand so why not?

 

Because all businesses in China are controlled by the CCP and they have an active agenda to undermine the USA. I don't want to pay people that wish for my downfall.

 

meh everything we buy comes from china or Thailand sorry... not much is truly built where you think it is... i wont get into the whole usa downfall since its already on the shit slop and honestly could care less lol

 

hell ktm engines are being built in china (not all some are still in austria for now) in the same town as cf moto and guess what a lot of parts for bmw and yamaha also come from this same area..... so there for you cant escape the china lol

 

Found this I'm going to try. Probably mount a 2x4 to the wall then this to it since I can do additional deck screws into the wall stud

 

That was going to be my suggestion! That or 2x extensions / brackets coming off the studs to hang it on.

 

Gym's in my neck of the woods are packed from 4 - 6pm, can barely get a complete routine in without skipping multiple set ups even with alternatives lined up.

 

Those would raise them as well? I should look those up as an alternative to new bar too.

 

That wouldn't have been a bad idea either. Definitely cheaper!

Now I need to rearrange the wall. Might move all the straps next to the garage door and reposition those ramps

 

Edmund Burke said it best: The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil, is for good men to do nothing.

I'm fully aware of the reality of the manufacturing world. I cannot control where companies choose to have components manufactured, but I do see a distinction between giving my money to a 100% CCP company and buying a product that may have components that a re produced in China.

 

hely that would work!

oh damn! the planet fitness we go to is honestly that packed but its larger so its not to bad!

so for my setup it shouldnt it replaces everything for the handle bars on the tripple tree. if it does raise them a bit then im fine with that lol

meh nothing i can do nor am i what you call good men lol

true not telling you to go buy one but i find it funny lol just gotta ya know because what else am i gonna do!

 

I saw this the other day parked down an alley and from a distance thought it was a little Ninja. It's a Chinese e-bike, looked it up and they're about $3k new... considering the specs and price a used 250/300 is a much better buy

 

Good to see other garages look like mine as far as lack of organization go, feels better knowing I'm not alone haha. My excuse is pure laziness though.

 

Damn I had no idea this was a thing. It would be perfect to use my hitch mounted bike tire changer in the garage without moving the trucks around...

Same. I used to go at 6 AM but now I go after I drop my son off at daycare around 7:30 AM.

 

Morning is where it's at. Unfortunately work starts early for me, so I have to head in even earlier to make it work - 4 AM for me. Same 5 or so regulars at that time. Before kids and other responsibilities I preferred later nights, 9 - 10 PM. Late nights > early mornings, but life dictates my preferences these days.

 

Not sure how I would feel about putting a dynamic load on it. I'll let you know when I receive it.

I have my tire changer on its feet. Does have a hitch mount insert I could use though

 

hey hey hey! my garage is normally in order! but atm i have civic parts here there and everywhere! gonna try and shuffle the engine in today and if i do gonna go out to tuttle creek tomorrow with the new klx to try it out.

 

ive never seen that thing before!

 

Same here... the bodywork looks very similar to a Ninja 400

They have a couple fake groms too
