Just ordered some FCRs from Chris@Cycleworks and can't wait to install them. My new Rev'It jacket just arrived so it feels like X-Mas in October! Dolph

Sweet.  What's it for? Those are the single biggest "fun" upgrade for carbie 2 valves. Well, an 848 would be a fun upgrade, but that's slightly more $$$

You should know, isn't that the first thing you upgraded on your 900? waytogo

Some fixing, some fussing some modifying.

Got that retaining wall that needs attending to. Currently the dryer is in the garage, not in the same place as the washer - so looking into moving things so they can be same place. Looking at adding some outlets to the garage. Currently there's only one, 7' off the ground in a corner - useful!
Floors need some attention so he's bringing a floor guy.

So it's a mixed bag.

Speaking of fussing - the garage currently have the old kitchen counter and cabinets in them for work/storage space and they SUCK for garage storage. Any suggestions for good, but in expensive garage stuff?

build it yourself...but in all seriousness, in the Jeffrey St house that you helped me move out of, if you recall in the garage ( and couldn't take it with me!) there was the metal frame for the crate that a Ducati came in and I cut the front cross spars off of it and reinforced it with a single center support 2x6 and a plywood top and stored boxes/tubs underneath it with ease...the metal packing crate was free, and the wood was minimal and the tubs were the basic ones you can get at Target or Walmart or whatever...otherwise, cruise the Garage Solutions site or any of the home improvement stores for some industrial man cave storage stuffs

Yeah, might build myself a work deck and actually be able to store stuff. The kitchen stuff just has no space for anything of a, well, non kitchen size. Scour  CL for Elfa stuff too gotta organize!

can you use the kitchen stuff as a base and modify the ever living shit out of it?...specially since it probably doesn't necessarily have to look pretty since it is a garage...you know...the function over form thing....

It'd be better to start fresh. It's crappy old stuff and I'd spend more time modding it in an attempt to make it useful than I would starting fresh.
