Anyone have tips for fitting all the dirtbikes in the garage so we have room to work around them still?
We're gonna be building some new shelving but floor space is an issue with 4 bikes in a single car garage.

I've got 9 in my single car garage right now, 4 of those are pitbikes so they take up a little less space. Angle method works best for me.

Unfortunately, I have to park my truck in my 1 car garage, or the HOA won't give my daughter a parking permit.
So for now, I can fit 1 bike. It goes against the back wall. I can probably squeeze in 2.
I really like your setup. I need to build a small workbench.
I also have shelving all the way around my garage just above head level. Nothing gets stored on the floor..... everything is up on the shelves, on the wall, under my benches, or in the chest. Shelves built to accept flip top plastic totes two high. Try to keep everything in these totes on the shelves, on the wall, or from the ceiling.
My my tool chests and benches are also on wheels with the exception of one solid mount with vice and such attached to it.
For me, key to such a small space is getting everything up and off the floor and put away in uniform storage or some other fashion for the items that dont fit. Everything moves around so I can reconfigure easily based on the project at hand. Uniformity, organizing, and commitment to put stuff away makes working and storing in a small space much more enjoyable.

All told, I can get at least 6 bikes in and still get access to the bench. If I had to store them for a cold winter I could but in Queensland, Australia, I just leave my daily road bike outside and usually everything else inside. When you rebuild you need a lot more space... at least I do.
Do you have parents that live nearby? I find mine store way too much unnecessary stuff like Christmas trees and decorations, and other useless items. I feel like I'm actually doing them a favor, as well as myself, by clearing these items out, and putting good stuff in their place.
I hope these ideas help.
Doin my best at becoming a hoarder. Theres an 88 cr250 parts bike an 86 cr125 parts bike and an 86 cr250 complete project hiding in there also
