Forget the BIKES ... Look at that big, clean garage!!

Mine is so full of tools and half-completed cab restorations I haven't been able to park a car in it for months.  ???

Color me envious.

Oh Yeah --- Great Looking Cab. Another Quality Job !!!

The blue one?!
That a ZX-11 or 7R in there? Either way I think I could make due with that one. ;) It's no Ducati but I think I could make due.

Great cabinet... kinda got distracted by the bikes. I suppose cabinets are my second love. :)

Hey pocketz, can you elaborate a bit on the gun holder?

when i saw this cabinet page:
http://www.cybercoma.com/supercade/ (http://www.cybercoma.com/supercade/) i liked how he did the light gun so i kinda copied it. i played around with some cardboard cutouts and the light gun to find the right size and shape. i trimmed and shaped the cardboard about 10 times before i was happy. then i just traced the cardboard cutout onto the cab and cut. i installed a small piece of happcontrols marquee holder on the bottom of the hole to protect the paint of the cab. then i made a simple box that isnt permanently installed in the cab. this is so i could paint the cab with out the gun getting in the way. it is held on by three screws inside and i grooved the bottom of the box so the cable can come up inside.

p.s. the black sport bike is a zx7r
