I ended up soaking it with WD-40, over and over. Eventually I soaked a paper towel with the stuff and laid it over the affected area. Came back a few weeks later and it all rubbed off with my thumb - it had transformed into something that felt like dried up rubber-cement. Thanks all. Sold...

We're not far from each other. Maybe we should get together and talk. Others have raised some good points about potential issues in sharing spaces, but...

I really should get the plastic off to work on it separately but it's such a major pain... I'd rather go in for a root canal.

I got this when I was thinking about buying a CRF300L for a trip at end of summer, but I've put that idea on hold for now. Amazon product page is here. Sells for $80 + tax, asking $50. Never been used or even mounted. Picture is from product page. From the product page. Specific Fitment...

I've gotta give it another soaking then I guess. I soaked it one whole weekend last summer and it didn't seem to do much. I thought about this. Is there any danger that heat could damage the plastic? I guess WD-40 AND heat gun would be a bad idea....

I cracked some plastic on my Multistrada a while ago, and to prevent the plastic from separating more I slapped some masking tape on it until I could figure out what to do with it. It turned out it didn't bother me - really at all - I actually saw it as a sick badge of honour - but after a year...

I just might do that! I work out in Etobicoke so maybe could drop by sometime after work. I'll DM you.

Yeah, but sad is relative. I'm lucky to have had a place for 15 years where I could do all those things, and luckier still to be able thinking about paying money to keep a few motorcycles! Since my kids have gotten older, we really don't use the place as much as we used to. My dream was to...

I could fit something like that in; my problem would be getting bikes in and out of the yard. We live in a row house where most of the backyards have been fenced off. THere's a tiny alley that I could use to get to the yard but it would be hard to wheel a bike in and out of there as I'd have...

15 years ago you could buy a nice sized house in Toronto with a garage for $1M. I tried to convince my wife to buy a place like that in the Lawrence/Leslie area for that price. Our kids would have grown up with their cousins literally around the corner, and the monster homes were already going...

If I sell my cottage, I really want a place to tinker. I live in a Victorian row house with no garage space to keep my bikes, be they project or road-/trail-worthy. My projects are not a financially viable endeavour, but a flight of fancy. Really, when you break it down motorcycles really...

Any other GTAM'ers in a similar predicament and location? Maybe we could jointly rent a space and cut our collective costs.

Where are you looking for space?

Thank you gents. Location wise I could probably make those work!

I think I'd need one where I could roll in from the outside. I agree it's not likely they're going to want me hanging a fuel jug on a pole feeding my carbs inside. Problem is I think those sorts of units are not common downtown. I think I'd be happy with $500/mo at that size and with those...

@Evoex where did you keep yours ?

Beautiful idea but 10*15 would be most of my backyard, LOL. That’s not really the problem as we don’t use the yard but I live in a Victorian row house and access to the backyard is through a couple of tiny gates. Access is the big problem I see, but I will check this Allan Millard out. I know...

I don’t see myself driving out to the country to work on my bikes for a little time here and there. The beauty of the cottage was I was there all weekend and could tinker when and as I felt like it. Even in the city I recognize a twenty minute drive is no longer the same. The alternative is...

I’m looking for experiences anyone might have renting space to work and tinker and store maybe four or five bikes in various states of repair along with tools, stands, and parts. I currently keep my bikes at a cottage which we may be selling. Our city home has only street parking. The ideal...
