Today I will introduce you to my bikes and my garage, where I work on my beloved motorcycles.
It looks a bit chaotic and crowded, but appearances are deceiving. All the tools are in their place and I find my way around completely. Of course, this is a workplace, but also a workshop. You can't get around some mess and dirt. In the future when I finish all my bikes, you will see a perfect room for motorcycles.
My CBR600RR PC37a
This is the bike that started my journey. When I got 18 years old I bought this beauty and modified every single bolt. I'm gonna keep this bike forever for sure! At the moment it is a litte bit disassembled because I tuned the engine and will change also a few other things. I will post about it here when I do it. I use this bike for the street but I also used it in the past for track racing before I bought my racetrack-only bike. Which brings us to the next motorcycle...
CBR600RR PC40
Looks really beautiful, right? With this 600ccm beast with 120 Horsepower you can fly to the moon If you know, how to pull the throttle. I was so happy when I bought here with the rest of the money I had so I could finally race on the big tracks in europe without fearing to loose my streetbike If I crash. It is really an awesome Bike.
Unfortunately, I lost control of my motorcycle at a race at the race track in Most in the Czech Republic because my brakes suddenly failed and I flew with a good 140 km/h behind the chicane after the start/finish line in the parabolica through gravel and rolled over several times. I got up and ran to my bike because I wanted to finish the race but It was completely destroyed so I could not finish the race. It hurt me physically a little bit, but more in my heart when I saw the bike. The current state looks like this. Hurts a lot. But I will make her ready for her next ride.

I bought this bike together with a good friend I am racing together. We got this Supermoto to train more and improve our skills. The trainings are much cheaper with the supermoto on the gokart-track than on the big racetracks and you get much more riding time. In my opinion the best move to improve the own skills. You also can't destroy anything when you crash with these bikes. I you crash with an supersport-bike you will always have to pay much money for every crash. And motorsport is everything else than cheap. One of my best investments for sure.

This Pitbike is one of the funniest bikes I ever drew. This little beast has just 68kg but 17PS. You can imagine the fun you can have with it. I also bought it for the gokart track because I know many professionals who also drive them in their free time so I checked it out. You do not push them down like you do with the supermotobikes but drive them with hanging off and kneedown. And when you start loosing grip on your front tire in the corner you can just kick it up with your knee. The funniest thing I ever did on a motorcycle.
Me and two friends are also thinking about racing this year with the pitbikes. Would be pretty funny I guess.
If you have played with the thought of buying one for yourself, I personally recommend you rather a Supermoto, because here in Germany at least for the same money you get good Supermoto and in my opinion they are more fun to ride.
That are my actual 4 bikes I drive. I also have an old GSX500 and a CBR900RR SC44 in my garage, which I will repair in the next days. Follow me to see how I do it and how I prepare my bikes for the upcoming motorcycle-season. Can't wait to ride again on the street and racetrack again.
