this is becoming a problem...
bought another VTR today. got a SMOKIN deal from a member. i was looking for a motor and for even cheaper than ive seen any motors going for i got this full bike. 12,000 miles.
its going to become a track bike. i already have lots of spare bits like a braced swinger, penske shock, CBR 1000RR front end, and a bunch of other goodies. bike came with a fibreglass sharkskinz 1 piece fairing, JDM converted cbr shock with resevior, some high mounts, an F4i tail unit, coerce sprocket cover, steel braided lines, racetech gold valves installed, and a number of other things.
will be selling parts in the coming months once i get this bike set up with my track parts.

Problem? No way. You even have room for your camp pad and sleeping bag right next to them.
For me I just like to go into the garage late at night before bed to smell the rubber & oil. Reminds me of the days of riding in the back of a van to the racetrack many hours away.
I think that is an experience in life that is simple and stays sweet. Not just that you own them but when all the nuts are torqued with you own hands and you know you blistered the tires.

Rick, that looks like a cry for help. Its more of a refugee camp than a spa.
Most bikers dont do this but for me I refuse to let a bike be unrideable. I hate the feeling of bringing out a bike and it not being ready.
Helps prevent the graveyard/hoarder effect.
