I'm not trying to gain sympathy or bum anybody out, but to put things in perspective... I lost my son in January. On our last ride together, he was joking about how I was getting old and if he would be getting my bike when I was gone. I sure wish I could trade my bike to get him back. You can always get another bike or rebuild "The Phoenix" with the help of your kids and the shop owner.

 

Sorry for your loss. Hate to hear news like this.
The paypal account is a good idea.

I was just reading another post and would like to suggest that we all head to local dealer(s) for a test ride. Then we can send NSCoyote the coupon codes so he can have a better chance at winning a new bike.

 

May she rest in peace...

 

Been thinking of your loss all day...just bumping this back to page one...

 

Wow. Just seeing this. My hearts out to you man. Fugged up situation. Get that pay-pal account up so's we can drop some coin in it. Keep the faith brother, you'll be back on 2 wheels before you know it.
Here's to the Mistress, in hopes she rides again.

 

You post up the paypal info and I'm in......gotta pay it forward! Your indy sounds like alot of us workin' folks......doin' what he had to do to get by......no ins. sucks, but if'n he's a good guy, what's the use in ruinin' the friendship? Bikes are a dime a dozen......my friends, I can count on one hand.....think about it, mano......

 

+1 Good points there trippy57

 

You lost the bike, dont lose the friendship. Youre gonna need his help on the new build just like you needed him before. Go have a beer with him and dont even bring up the bike. Just listen.....thats what friends are for.

 

Spot on, Flamed ...

 

Sorry to hear about this man.
