Somewhat ashamed that I've let this project go on for soooo long without finishing out the interior but the last six years have had me going so many different directions that all the personal crap has just gotten pushed to the side. Finally though this year has a few things getting wrapped up. Not much, but the downstairs bathroom is pretty much done. Not enough time.....not enough dinero.Smile Anyone else??

Just curious...why would you stick that shit in the bathroom? Won't the moisture of the shower cause havoc on that stuff?

Your Moto-belia relegated to the crapper? Nice room and all, but the wife needs to give you a better space for that cool stuff.

Failing that, ditch the rug, buy a dirt-colored one, roll the fresh tread of your favorite 120/90/19 in some black ink and make a knobby track across it.

Why would you need to know the time when you are taking a dump? Never rush...

Heh heh, at least he mounted it in a place that makes it difficult to read when you are on the throne. I think it's in a good position so you can only see it when you are brushing your teeth.

Newmann: My brother's wife is pretty cool, she let's him put up his moto stuff, but since it's our business I think she's more lenient about it. But she went about it the smart way like you, putting it in nice cabinets and putting the pics in beautiful frames that look good with the furniture. The hall way to their bedroom has the Saddleback sign we have and also an original Carlsbad USGP poster, both mounted on wood or in wood frames. It's funny when they have get togethers, the guys drool and the women look at her like "why would you hang that up??" haha but I think it's pretty cool she does that. Now my boyfriend knows nothing of MX, I prefer it that way and he's pretty cool about all my MX memorabilia all over the condo, his kids always trying to snake my jeremy mcgrath lunch boxes haha By the way where did you find that RD lunch box????

DeCoster lunchbox was one of many the kids would get me for whatever occasion. There were a bunch of different ones available, can't remember who made them but I'll check for a name on it. Better yet, the DeCoster Revell model was one I built as a kid. Still got it although it is in need of a full restoration! Bought another one off Ebay for spares. Laughing I have a good bit of stuff that needs to be framed but still have lots of work left on the garage project first. One day....

Joe, the DG tank is cool.....but you need a pic of him riding with that tank at the West Texas 10000!! 125 Int, his feet were nowhere near the ground...hell, they barely reached the pegs.

Where'd you pick up that gas tank? Broc and I each had those on our DG Hondas, but I was unaware that they were available for people to buy....

Very nice there Joseph. It needs a damned urinal though; one the old models that goes all the way to the floor. No girls allowed!!
Try to do better on the upstairs bathroom.
