Very sorry to hear about your brother. It must be nice to fire her up after such a long time and think of him. How about a picture or two ?

Very sorry to hear about your brother Gary, I've lost far too many in my family as well to various cancers.
I have to think it was a pretty good and emotional feeling to get the car fired up again, think of it as a tribute to your brother.

He is watching and grinning one of those big crap-eating grins because you got it going again. Good for you man.

I may have given you guys the wrong idea. It's always been my car, he was a Harley guy and had an FXR. We were living together and got along great. I could ride his Harley anytime i wanted and he could drive my car without even asking. We worked on our rides together. I remember one night i was working on my car and he came out to work on his Harley but he just didn't have the strength, he dropped what he was doing went back in the house and never touched it again. Broke my heart.
Anyway here is a pic of how it sat for the last 8 years of so.

Here's a pic of my bother and his bike at the Easy Rider Rodeo in Chillicothe. This was before the bike was painted. I have no idea what he's doing.
