3D Model
ted_paper:
I'm doing a refit of my garage and trying to work out the best layout. Bit of a long shot, but does any one have a 3D CAD (pref Revit) model of a 400/4 or similar sized bike?
Alexrayz:
Hey there! Nice project ;)
Why not make a parallelepiped with the outer dimensions of the bike?
Not fancy but it does the trick easily

Maybe this diagram will help.
Length is 2040mm
Width is 780mm depending on what bars and mirrors are fitted.

Just a small point, but if you are using a conventional single garage as I do, be careful as to the size of any cupboards and benches you fix to the side walls. I got very enthusiastic and fitted floor level cabinets to one side, and workbenches opposite. After I purchased a second bike I bought a pair of Seeley dollies to make life easier when it came to moving the bikes about. I then realised that if I had left a big enough gap along one wall then I could have spun the bike round if I needed it facing the opposite direction, whereas now I have to wheel it off the dolly, take it outside and perform a three point turn, then wheel it back in and replace it on the dolly. If you are going to mount hand tools on the wall over your bench, forget what looks pretty, and place the most commonly used tools directly in front of your workplace. Have fun, and don't forget the 1st aid kit and fire extinguisher, and enough spave for a case of beer under the bench. Regards, Mike.

If you make a 1/12 scale architects model of the planned garage then you could just buy an 'airfix' kit and see if it fits.... Far easier than all that digital malarkey...
