Mods made on my Trail

[Zoomy7]

Sharing some modifications I have made since owning the bike for 3 weeks.
Added 5 gallon Husky box to the rack, not the biggest box but it has a water tight lid that can be opened without removing whole lid. (Home Depot)
Honda handle bar foam roll for the rear rack bar that bashes the butt. (eBay)
Red devil tire valve caps. (Left overs from my bicycle parts)
Trail 125 license plate frame (EBay)
Lezyne 1600 XXL rechargeable cycling lights with multi function modes, really bright for off road use or dimmer for street use. Schwinn cycling rear light with flashing mode for added visibility.
Magnetic Gold plug
Velcro cycling water bottle cage on forks
Relocated orange reflectors to side of head light bucket
Opmid
Puig screen on order.

Bottle cage to the forks is an interesting addition to me. Didn't think a cage would fit there but also never bothered to check.

It just Velcro’s round and fits ok, did remove the original side reflector brackets and moved th reflectors to the side head light bolt location which works fine.

That’s my other baby.

That's one of the newer Miatas right? My old housemate had a MX-5 in Australia (Aussie designation for the Miata). Great little car, especially once she gave it a little weight reduction, new headers and a roll cage. The newer ones come much stiffer than hers was.

I really enjoyed driving it, it was like a road legal go kart when we were done with it. She had hers set up for autokhana.

This is a 2020 Club and my 3rd Miata. Great little cars.

As requested….hope you like it. My favorite place in the house!

Not gonna lie, that garage is the thing of inspiration. You've got that... what do they call it, Slatwall? I'm a fan of French cleats so I'd probably go with that instead but damn that looks nice. The black strip around the garage along with the lights is a really nice touch. The bicycle mount into the slats is chef's kiss. Plus the rolling tool boxes, the sealed floor and enough lighting to provide even illumination throughout? It's everything I've dreamed about doing. The only thing I have in my place is the even lighting, they converted the garage to a finished room so I can't do anything like this. If you have some sort of heavy duty storage racks off to the left of these, I'm gonna need some more photos.

His garage is nicer than some of the houses I've lived in...

Same! I could live in that garage.

In defense of unsealed concrete floors, if you make a mess of a job doing something like changing trans fluid and diff oil on a vehicle, it's nice to come back a few hours later to find the oil has soaked through the concrete and is already covered in a fresh layer of dust.
Please don't tell Greta about my big barn life hacks.

Thanks for all the compliments. The flooring does look good although I have found that if you drop a small bolt or washer on the floor I have to spend 10 minutes looking for it because it totally blend in like a snake in the grass .
Sneak Dingo….here is the other side-a bit more busy than I would like.

Very nice! How is that little Italica scooter? Not a brand I've heard of before. GY6 50cc engine?

I learned from a friend in my hometown who has a business sealing these floors that they make long magnets for picking up nails, screws and stuff off of floors, and such purchases can be made for less than $40. He only told me this AFTER we'd pulled down his fence of course - I'd pulled all the nails and put them in a satchel I'd brought with me because I didn't want to spend time playing pickup 400 later, and then he pulled out this contraption.
