BEFORE and AFTER

Post by SteveW »

Taking inspiration from daveuprite's "Falling Over" post, in which he shows his handy work with the reconstruction of his storage facility.....I thought it would be interesting for us to show "before" and "after" photos of our projects.
Ideally these would be bike related, but not exclusively bike related....modifications/rebuilds/restorations or perhaps crash damage!
I can start with mine, sort of bike related, in so much as it's stopped me doing my normal bike travels over the last 18 months.
It's stopped my bike travels due to lack of time and Money.

Thanks Chaps.
I don't think I'll be doing much in the way of motorcycle travel this year as well.
Time and money tied up in the build. I'm down to just my DRZ 400e and my CCM GP 450.
I've got a big year ahead with the oakframed garage, landscaping, exterior wall, flagging, extending my workshop and I've still got a bit of second fix internal carpentry and tiling to finish.

I’m glad it’s not just me then!

Built the house in 1999 and I still haven’t got around to installing any wardrobes yet (sloping ceilings don’t help).

The wifes not too impressed with me this week as we’ve almost got the house how she wants it, but I’ve just gone and agreed a deal on another building plot.
