That is a sweet garage!
Only a screened in porch for me and happy to have at least that much.

Hey Riderdie, how hard is it to get the axle back in your forks on that stand? I was looking at one similar at cyclegear when they were on sale but talked myself out of it because I know the bottom of the forks on the xb are different lengths. I know it would've picked it up fine, but once you got the axle out the holes wouldn't be lined up anymore and I picture it being a project getting it back in.
No problems at all with taking out or putting the axle back in. The bars are always tilted to the right but that doesn't effect anything.
The only Thing which could make it easier but I wouldn't justify the extra cost is if it was a tree lift I wouldn't have to undo the caliper to remove th front wheel.
Here mine with the other toys in a 30'x45' shop. Mines in on the left and the truck, other 2 are the old man's toys.

Mine goes in a rickady ass swinging door tin garage in the summer and in the winter.. my basement 32" wide walkin doors r perdy small for a uly needless to say the bags gotta come off:)
Pinky chills out between my Dodge Magnum R/T any my Hybrid Toyota.
Damn, makes me wish I had bought one. Oh well, I'll grab one next time around. I always pull the caliper off anyway.No problems at all with taking out or putting the axle back in
Zombie thread. Plus maybe see some hibernating Buell pics since its winter. Upgraded to an actual garage, since I have 2 now. Need to make room as I have to rewire an old CJ-5 over this winter.
