I blame my brother-in-law. A nice guy to be sure, but prone to making outlandish suggestions such as: "Carl, buy a bike and lets go riding." Crazy stuff like that. At 54, I have gone through the fazes of dirt, street, dual sport, dirt again. Now add "super bike" to that. It seemed like the...

I think this will be my second such thread. My first was for a Swedish station wagon, so this will be a change. I do enjoy the vast pool of knowledge these forums offer. And the banter. This group seems very nice.

I'm hoping to hook up with some locals for an occasional group rides.

Years ago, a buddy in Michigan stored his Sportster in his living room over the winter. Always thought that was the coolest thing.
 
Awesome. The house faces north, so come August the garage is full sun much of the day.

My neighbors blew in insulation in their garage ceiling and walls over the summer, but for me I think the doors are the best bang for the buck.
 
I used "Rocksol" green insulation bats in my walls and ceiling of my garage as well as (at the time) put that 1 inch Styrofoam on the door...worked great and you can certainly notice the difference summer or winter...I can heat it with a small ceramic space heater..

Covering Seattle territory in addition to my own. Recent storms. Losing my mind...

Instagram went over 1,100 followers. Booya.

Note that plastic insulation is not intended to be installed exposed to heat sources and can burn at very low temperatures. I would recommend at least a layer of drywall as a heat barrier over plastics, especially in a residential application without sprinklers and wood construction.
