Whats in your shop

[tnbill]

Thought i would post whats in my shop. I had a transmission shop for 16 years and when i semi retired i kept some of the tools and equipment. Here is some pictures of my shop.

Santa came early today with my new tire changer

My shop, a Dowco cover, only has room for the bike itself.

Organized chaos at my home shop.

Hope to get it sorted before retirement. There is a crapload of tools at my warehouse shop.

Pretty much as you do. I have a lathe, small milling machine, bead blaster, compressor, Tig Welder, gas welding setup,20 ton hydraulic press and fixtures for straightening forks and rebuilding crankshafts and a cylinder boring machine and three large roll away boxes filled with a 50 year collection of tools. Also a newly purchased Rabaconda tire changer.

Just got my No Mar tire changer, man these 2011 tires on my just purchased 2012 with 5050 miles on are stiff and rock hard! Heck of time breaking bead on the rear!! The ST is parked under my 4 post car lift.

@tnbill, good thing all those luscious tools were on their sides, else I'd be jealous.

If you take the pics with an iPhone, air drop them to your desktop computer (apple, I assume). Once you get the thumbnail pics on your desktop, click on them one by one. In the band at the top of the image, you will see the i in a bunch of editing tools. One will say rotate. Get the image oriented properly and close. Then when you drag and drop it to post it, the image will come up in the correct orientation.

the i phone is the only apple junk i have, the laptop is a windoze based.

but.. you have a nice bike, and the color is to die for.

I’m jealous, I only have one stainless upright tool box, a stainless table top craftsman box, a handy table lift, small compressor, portable tire stand, and motion pro spoons, and just enough tools to take ST’s Hostage
But for what I lack in tools, I make up in willingness to help folks.
And I have a larger selection of OEM ST parts than our local dealerships have.

No offense but if you have a set of brake pads you have more than my local dealers.

I have an old BMW F650. I stopped by the dealer for a couple of parts one day. The parts department parts consist of a 6' tall 4' wide set off shelves with their parts and customers ordered parts. With a clutch lever going for about $70 and a simple Bosch relay at $28, I can see why.

You mean with the ST you need more than the stock tool kit? Hmmm

 

[Chris09]

In Canada if you have an upper rad hose you have more than the local dealership
