I'am pretty stoked, my girlfriend hooked me up with an early Christmas present for my winter motor rebuild and storage for my bike. Since we don't have a garage at the moment she bought the next best thing, a like new 10' by 12' Tough shed with a 4 foot about 48 inch door a little tight but it will work with some persuation. I have plans to put in some flooring and a work bench and of course all of my tools. I have started gathering some parts for my motor and this winter is shaping up to be a good one, just thought I would share...Here's the delivery

Nice!! How cold does it get where you are? Put a floor, a few shelves for parts, and a radio in there and its a good way to spend a Sunday working on the bike!

Thanks all. I have a smile ear to ear, haha. We've lived here for three years with no garage, I guess you can say that we sacrificed a garage for 3 acres of land. Going to do some indoor/outdoor flooring something cheap that looks good and maybe a corner motor bench and some shelves along with the tool boxes, radio and probably a heater it gets in the low 30's in the winter I'm by Lake Tahoe in California...

Need to do some lighting and a couple outlets, but I probably will just run extension cords this year.

I picked up a shed around that size a few years ago for spare parts, it was pretty easy (and cheap) for us to cut it in half both ways and double the length and width...just food for thought.

Thanks for the info, I think it's good size for now maybe down the road though. I was busy looking for cabinets on craigslist last night and went and picked this up this morning for 20 bucks, like new. I'm searching for a Gladiator work bench at the moment to go with the cabinet. I looked this exact one up and priced it at $120 new, got a good deal...love craigslist!

Mounted the cabinet yesterday and stocked it up a little. I bought some indoor outdoor flooring. I'm just going to do half for my work area and leave the other half bare where the quad sits...

Bikes in, I had to notch the door way and put on the mx tires in order to get it to fit, but it came out nice. Now I just need a work bench.
