Sweet. I still crave an old British classic bike to relive my earlier biking days but seem to remember spending more time working on them than riding them. That's why I got into Harley's lol




yes, that was also the problem with that Matchless, it is a highly tuned single (620cc) and needs a lot of attention, rides very uncomfortable if you are used to ride a Harley........ I can not understand anymore that I made thousands of kilometres in Europe on these big singles like Matchless, AJS, BSA etc......maybe we get too old for that :(

Fat Bob your a man after my own hart I had a 65 Wildcat and a, if memory serves me a 59/60 Matchless. The wildcat was a great car to drive the only thing on the Matchless I didn't care for was the braking could not get them to work that well did a lot of down shifting to help stopping. Old memorise  thanks  :2vrolijk_21:

My latest addition ... the little black Miata being dwarfed by this white barge is what I traded in.

No Hemi, but I didn't want a gas guzzler. This 300 horse 3.6 V-6 does a pretty good job of that compared to the Miata, but its worth every gallon. This is the best car I ever had & will be taking it to my grave with me. These new cars are something else, this thing with the 8 spd would have killed my old Mustang GT which was a 4.6 V-8 with 260 hp and I had some mods on top of that.

Not next to the HD, but behind it almost kissing it to squeeze it in. I can barely fit my fat ass behind the car with the garage door closed if I exhale deeply.

It's difficult to have enough garage space for many of us.  I would bet most posting here would really like to have additional garages than what they currently have. :nixweiss:

That would be too difficult a parking task for me.  Do you have any other 'help' (like a weighted cord, or something hanging to touch before the bike) other than the piece of cardboard?  :nervous: spyder  NEVERMIND>...I see the orange tennis ball upon a second look.  still, I'd be nervous  :nervous:

I thought I had enough with a 3 car attached garage 36 x 28 ft. and a 16 x 20 detached barn/garage for the lawn equipment. NOT!!! I really need an additional 40 x 40 ft to be really good.
Good luck to me on that.

The 335, MINI, Cub Cadet and CVO fit really nice in my garage with even a workbench to boot.  I can walk around it all with storage shelves and hangers in place to keep as much of the floor space clear.  This is my first garage ever (had a two car carport once) so I'm not complaining a bit.  Some of us have smaller garage space or none at all with some having to park 'em outside or in rental storage units.
However, my current arrangement took some fiddling and if the option presented to build another garage for the toys, dang right that would be a choice.

Mike, I'd take your detached shed in a heartbeat....you'd just have to also include all the "goodies" with it..... ;D :2vrolijk_21:
