ha! This thread is a pisser... I am restoring a muscle car, I am building another bike, I have recently started doing some work to my Jeep Renegade, have two tool boxes, parts for all my projects, I have my daughters with their electric Barbie Jeep and my sons electric Indian motorcycle, not to mention all the things for their fun in the sun and yet my bike even though I have a lot of cash and work in her goes where ever there is room, if it fits it can sleep there and I have a two car garage behind the house and rent another two car garage. I mean I have alot going on in my garages but Wow man, I never seen such funny **** before, I remember when we lived by the rules if you break it in like a pu$$y it becomes a pu$$y but to treat a bike like you guys do after the fact .... with specialized parking and all, well just wow...... too funny!

I have a '63 *****'s and I have two bikes that fit between the wall and the Jeep, the FLHT goes in front of my wife's car, she has a Mini Cooper...plenty of room. Since you have the Jeep, should have zero problems parking it in front of it, just be careful pulling in the garage....!

I have a standard two car garage with a CJ7 and a Camaro inside.There is just enough space to get the Limited in front of the Jeep.I pull in at an angle so I can roll it out with moving the Camaro,just have to watch out for the left side antenna when closing the door.

One bike in a one-car garage. The car and van stay in the driveway (off to one side so there is room to ride the bike past them).

Exactly !

You gotta protect the Jeep from dirt, water, and those harsh elements.

When I bought my last bike, I had a Shelby, two racing karts and a trailer in the garage.

When I found room in there for a bike, my wide decided there had to be room for another bike, and sadly it wasn't going to be MY bike.

So be careful.
