A friend that has a passion for motorcycles is jumping feet first in to a new concept and I'll be coming along too.
BYOB Garage will be the Fredericksburg, Va region's first community motorcycle shop.
BYOB
Garage is a community motorcycle garage catering to the
needs of the DIY rider. BYOB stands for Build-Your-Own-Bike. We will
provide the facility, tools and equipment necessary to complete
everything from oil changes to total restorations.
BYOB welcomes
all types of motorcycles and ATVs. From Harleys to Hondas. From Ducati
to Triumph, it doesn't matter what you ride as long as you ride.
Customers
will have access to eight workstations by hourly appointment. Walk-ins
are welcome on a first-come first-served basis. Each station will have a
motorcycle lift and a complete set of tools featuring both standard and
metric sizes. Two of those workstations will be customizable for
servicing ATVs. Specialized tools such as a tire changing station,
torque wrenches and welding equipment will also be available.
BYOB
will offer a range of educational opportunities covering subjects from
basic maintenance to engine rebuilding. If you prefer a little hands on
guidance, experienced mechanics will be available by appointment to
assist you.
If you need time on your project or just need to keep
your motorcycle somewhere safe and out of the elements, BYOB will offer
storage rates on a monthly basis including rates for parts.

Hopefully BYOB will be open in a few weeks. You can follow the progress on Twitter @BYOBGarage
