        If I had that many bikes my family would never see me unless they were deliverying food or beer to the garage.

          I have a fridge in the Garage .
          My biggest problem is getting things done with all the bikers in the neighborhood always stopping by and of course drinking beer while we shoot the breeze. I switched to tequilia and whiskey which deters them a little, at least the weak ones.

          I got the carbs cleaned up installed and running just needs a sync. Waiting on a front tire and it will be up for sale.

          It's just an off season thing I've been doing for the past 5 or so years when I'm not fishing. I'll be getting down to the 3 XS11's here shortly. Then hopefully finish the 81XS11 Venturer so I can ride it up to MOM this year.
