where I live the garage is awesome. The deck is filthy dirt mostly there is crap all over the place 3 bicycles and my phsycotic roomates belongings.Thank God I am moving out of hell into far nicer surroundings in 2 weeks. Maybe one day, if I ever own a garage again,it will be like a salon with nail stations and pedicure chairs..........Guess we all have different priorities!

Ahhh... who is this guy? Never heard of Tony O'Neill and how does he have such a direct pipeline to Ducati Corse that they would sell him all that stuff rather than keep it in their own museum?? ??? Curious minds want to know. Anyway, makes me want to at least sweep my garage and clean the crap off my workbench!

From making TV stands to collecting Ducatis... interesting. Too bad folks can't see it and enjoy but that's usually the fate of any private collection of anything worth collecting. Still be curious to know how he made the inside connection with Duc Corse. Lots of folks with money out there but he seems to get the best shot at the best bikes.

Im in the process of designing my future man cave and am perusing the garage thread on adv and this post stops me in my tracks.

Enjoy.

That's not a garage, it's a mausoleum.  Those vehicles look untouched.  I'd rather see something a little more lived in.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

The first Guy.  "with some of my four-wheel and two-wheel recreational items inside."

The first guy has a better variety.

Tony Oneal's is sort of monotonous but those royal airforce planes bump it up to be the better garage IMO.

the second collection is interesting, because of the jets.

the first one does nothing for me, except wonder what the guy is overcompensating for..

Best garages, like bikes, are the ones you have.

That first one is fancy, but too clean.

I work in mine. It's good enough.

Mine looks like people might have died in it, is that good?

I need more space.  The FE in the foreground is getting a lot of fixup work.  There is an SP beyond it, then a 600ss and a Cagiva Alazzurra.  I removed the fairings so I could fix stuff easier.

That's a '53 R/51.  Needs a new magneto.  The Monster is behind me as is a couple of other bikes.

I am building a new shelf and workbench setup and get rid of those plastic shelves.  I have a total of 8 of them and they are all full of parts I've bought over the years, probably half are NOS parts I've picked up during trips to Italy.  

A couple of the bikes in the back are mothballed for later resto.  Don't have as much time as I used to.
