This guy is a member on another board I'm on. His 900sqft garage caught fire and he lost 3 cars and bikes, a project car and a shitload of tools
Needless to say I was at a loss of words.
1990 300ZXTT (cleanest Z I have ever seen in pictures)
1946 Harley Davidson Knucklehead
1971 Lamborghini Jarama
1971 Lotus Europa
2001 YZF R6
2004 YZF R1
Twin Hayabusa La Bala project
The shop.
My motorcycles, the R1 on the right, R6 on the left.
I'm not sure, I was wondering the same but in the description of the Youtube video he said the cause was not yet known
I thought it was crazy how the frames of the R1 and R6 just vaporized... The only trace of them is whats left of the engines, the rotors, an exhaust can and what looks like a sprocket.
I feel sorry for the guy, but I can say that this could of been avoided or less severe if he had a sprinkler system, thats the first thing I am doing to a new house is installing a fire suppression system, Especially in the garage.
That sucks. It's crazy that it was hot enough to melt all the aluminum from the bikes. What sucks the most is that there were vintage and rare cars in there. I'd be more upset about those than the Z, it'd be easy to find another one of those. I can understand being upset about losing all the work put into it though.
I don't think I've been in a house with sprinklers out here, not even newer ones. Apartments and hotels yeah, but that's it. But you are right, it would make sense to have it at least in your garages and stuff.
Can you actually say that it would have saved everything without knowing the cause of the fire though? I mean I'm sure you know a lot more about that stuff than I but it looks like that fire had tons of fuel.
wow that sucks.........i can understand him being rediculously upset BUT crying.....idk :shrug: thats just a little odd to me? i just would have cussed up a friken storm. i think i would only cry if like my dog or family memebr was in the fire......but thats just me.
