I joined this forum hoping for some help with a photo for my brothers headstone.
My brother passed away last year at 55 due to heart complications from a car accident, not involving his motorcycle, I have been trying without success to get a good photo of his favorite bike, his son inherited all of his bikes and after a more than a year of trying I have not been able to get access to the bike or get pictures from him, I believe it is a 1980 Electra Glide Classic.
The first two photos are of the bike, I think, he had more than 10 bikes and two of them were black, I know the 1980 black bike was his baby, I am looking for a photo of this type of bike to have laser engraved on a 6" X 9" black granite insert that will go on his headstone. The third photo is the type of photo I need, that is not his bike just something I snagged off the internet but it shows what I am looking for, the last photo is of my brother on another one of is bikes.
So I think his bike was a 1980 Electra Glide, my terminology may be wrong but he had a fairing with a tall windshield, leather saddle bags and it didn't have a trunk. If anyone can help me with a high resolution photo of this type of bike in the pose like in the third photo, I would be grateful if I could get a copy, color of the bike doesn't matter for laser engraving.
Why not just use the pic you have of him on his bike? Its a nice pic and the bike he is sitting on looks like an early 2000s Electra Glide Ultra Classic.

I agree, that's a great pic, and welcome to the forums.
