Saw this today and it looks like a good idea since I've got 13' ceilings in my garage. would it be bad on the forks? looks like the rear is help up from the swing arm

Be better off the frame instead of the swingarm.

Cool idea. How do you attach to the dry wall?

I would be worried about the fork top out springs sacking out.

I would use dry wall screws of course

but not the short ones, really long ones so you get a good bite
