So Tragic. Condolences sent to you and your's. I hope you can all give him the departure he deserves soon. As for the bike, as has been said many times before my post, ride it in the memory of him and I'm sure he'll be looking down and smiling. There was a reason he chose you to take possession of what was probably the best friend he ever had.

 

If it were me...

Come spring/summer... I would take time off, and ride her as far and wide as time would permit. Then I would contemplate what to do after that.

You may rediscover yourself in the attempt or at least understand what he was longing for.
