Reuniting my Grandfather with his old motorcycle after 60 years apart! 

Well said brother

You were overdue 😂

@@Reidzandbelt we are cry 😭 thankyou u make the man happy

Same

Dude.😂😂😂. I was in tears at least you covered it up for me

Be like.. that is so uncouth

You're absolutely right...he looked like a much younger man as he sat there revving his old bike. How cool.

❤100%

cant explain the love a man will have for his motorcycle, my 95 saved my life after the war, i'll never sell it. I'll own many other bikes alongside it, but she'll always be my lady.

-Nard dawg

You said it, too true my friend,

God bless

That is soo true

All good things must die. trick is to realize the good things times and friends in the present.

I loved that moment too. Long term memory is on point haha

absolutely - that obs surprised me too - every inch of that bike is etched in his memory.

Guys, Its something that you never forget, no matter how old you are. My first Bike was a BMW R/51/3. 500cc twin. I can describe that bike down to a tee. I was 16 when my Dad bought it for me. I rode it everywhere!

You can recognize a TRUE biker by his words.

@@davidgreve1081 my first bike a was a 2003 650l loved that thing never let me down

and some people think motorbikes are just a hobby!!

@@stevec-b6214 Even if it was what's wrong with that? Hobby is the opposite of work. If you take very long to do something at work it feels like shit. If you take very long to make something in an hobby it makes you proud you did it.

really the best thing I have ever seen on RU-vid

I dont know why i keep coming back to this video. The sons emotions shows how deep love for his father. Priceless video. Amazing!!

Lol

Yes that was amazing, and he was right.

Once a biker, always a biker.

Feels bro..

Wow what a good comment mate

Would it be irresponsible if perhaps a third wheel is added, so that the gentleman can ride his bike alone with his son? It just seems the right to do!!!

I dont ride and i understand the bong and the freedom

Very heartbreaking.. I wish you and your pop's beautiful memories together remain with you forever

Don't worry Charles, I'm sure your dad knows how much you love him.

Most people don't get this. Be aware of that. Best wishes and a big hug

And his son, what a guy.

So touching. I’m a rider myself at 68 yrs old. Boy, how your dad looks younger when he sat on his bike all smiles. I admire you as a greatfull son.

Indeed it is.

Hahaah no kidding

Ha ha ha

🤣🤣🤣

I'd cry like that if forced to give up on Motorcycles and buy a Harley.

Lol

well said

so trueee...

Legend says. He is still barrelling down the highway, smoking a stogey.

He sure did. Thanks!

He sure did! He felt in his element, just like back in the days... What a great present by his boys! They are an inspiration to us all. This is how we should all treat our elders!

Muhammed you got that right!

I was thinking the Same funny ...and read your comment after

Sweet comment of u.

Total freedom. The only time you can hear the universe thinking.

In 1980, I bought my first motorcycle, a new Honda XL 185. Not a powerhouse, but it got me around and I drove it for about a year before I sold it to my cousin and moved away. My cousin sold it to my brother-in-law, who then sold it to the UPS driver. The little town where my family lived was too small for a UPS center, so the driver came every day from a town 80 miles away. His name was Chris. After several years, I returned to live in that town 80 miles away, and I was delivering furniture. One day, we had a delivery to a guy named Chris, and the delivery notes said that he might not be home during the day, and to go around to the back door for the furniture delivery. As I was going around the side of the house, I saw my old motorcycle leaning up against the fence. It was completely destroyed. Only about 8 years had passed, and I was saddened to see how badly that bike had been treated. But it brought back so many great memories. Yes, motorcycles are emotions.

200th like

@@xifengguo2544 TQ

Im 19 and just pickup a city bike which I will be adding a 49cc 2 stroke to. Looks like fun! And its rather safe, being slow

@@BasedMan well if dirt bikes count I have that! 🙏

He did his father legacy with pride and honor...

I do relate so much. At 76, still own my bike of 42 years, a 1080 BMW R65 with only 13k. Is it rather strange that one would actually talk to a bike by saying "Thank You" whenever it brought me back home safe and sound to my wife of 52 years. It is a very personal thing. I love this story and thank God for love of children like these.

I get it Dennis. At 71 I still have my '98 sporty in the garage. I dropped it when I came to a stop and my arthritic left knee collapsed on me. Can't bring myself to sell it. Maybe I'll get my knees replaced one day, right?

You’re not alone my friend.🥲

yes yes yes yes

Somebody must be cutting onions.

Rode a lot of hoes to the lake

@@alexplorebook what is the bike name

@@alexplorebook 😂😂😂😂

Half his kids probably would have been made on that bike. You've earned it old timer. God bless.

@@alexplorebook Lol. But nah, back then there weren't many hoes. You find a girl you likeand she likes you, then sparks fly for many decades. He cool though. Might've had one hoe but that's it.

Right, well...I don't think she did that for fun now, did she? Losing your bike sure is sad, but poverty isn't nice either.

@@Widdekuu91 true but its usually because the wife thinks its a piece of junk that takes up room in her garage, some wives can be so inconsiderate and self centred

@@JimTom. I think you can say that about both sexes, Jimmy. Some would argue that if it isn't being used at all, then keeping it in a shared place is quite inconsiderate and self centred too. It'd be up to the husband to rent a storage-room for his own valuables if they're too big for the house.

@@Widdekuu91 Yes youre right, but on the other hand your house is for your stuff, both of your stuff. if its sentimental or a hobby etc then by all means they have the right to keep it. Also goes both ways of course

@@JimTom. Ofcourse you have the right to keep it. But as soon as something (which was the case in your example) is basically a burden to both, because it isn't being used and it is too big to fit in the garage, you have to find a new spot for it. And if you are unwilling to find a new spot or there are serious moneyproblems and you never ride it and you know there's "cash" in that thing that'll be needed to survive as humans, then you need to figure out what you want to do with it. I'm not suggesting men or women can't be overly-dominating about other people's stuff but in a normal relationship, a woman or men doesn't have the right to decide over the others person's valuables and whether or not he/she gets to 'keep' them. You DO however, need to work out what to do with expensive items that you don't use, especially if you're in difficult times, where illnesses, hunger, poverty or rent are demanding big steps to be taken. So yes, it's a horrible thing to have to sell your belongings, but I honestly don't think it's a normal course of events when your spouse 'makes you sell' things, like they're your parent. I am suspecting there was a case of poverty and there was a reality check that you can't eat a motorcycle.

That's a good plan 👍

I bet your wife loves that :)

I chased down my first motorcycle after 46 years since I had last seen it, an old Honda SS50 that I bought when I was 16 years old, it was a total wreck with many parts missing but I restored it to new condition over a 3 year period, it is now mounted on my living room wall but is took down once a fortnight and run for 5-10 miles to keep it right. My pride and joy that brings back happy memories each time I look at it, not worth a lot of money but to me it is priceless.

Crying

indubitably

I asked my dad, when he was in his 80's, in later stages of Parkinson's: "Dad, you want anything?" / Dad replied, as I helped hold him up: "Yeah! a new body!"

Every decade has their kids

very true!

absolutely - look at that pride on his face when he revved it up. he went back 60 yrs, imagined his 'boys' behind him and his wife with him on it. he couldve held a cigar though!! lovely to see. i have my dad's 55 yr old jawa in india and its high time i fix it up again

Anyone with A heart would understand. Greatest generation ever.

Yeah, just with installed side wheels to make sure he'll make it safely.

Thanks very much :)

@Aljarar Q you sound like a Trumpist.

@Aljarar Q What a cold hearted person you must be, as a motorcyclist if my family were to present me with my favorite old bike at 90yrs old even though I could not ride any more I would cry with joy too. Some day when your old you will understand. Its not just the bike, its the memories you had with your wife and children and the day rides and trips you were able to share with them. This video was touching to me , because I would have reacted the same way. I feel sorry for anybody who never gets a chance to make great memories , because if your fortunate to live to 90 years old memories and your family are all you need. Besides the fact the family now has this heirloom to pass down to remember him when he passes away. Great video.

@@jimdekorne3724 well said thank you sir

@@jimdekorne3724 Some people just don't have anything good to say probably because their own life is miserable. I'm just sorry his wife wasn't there for this. She would have been just as thrilled.

I'm still so sad I had to sell my 1987 Honda Shadow VT1100... She was my baby, but I couldn't afford the repairs anymore...

Or a bike lovin’ Mama 🥰

I was in tears too

This is just awesome.

me too

me too

Thank you very much. It meant the world to him.

u and your brother should take a picture together, then the son of u and ur brothers and so on for generations. that would be nice.

Fabulous lol some one likes coming in the back door

not father?

his father,not a grandfather.

Mostly just jealous and angry at the world, can only feel pity for them!

Some people are just nasty personalities

He raised a great caring family,,, like many families do.. hope he enjoys those feelings again on his Motorcycle...

I totally agree, it was a beautiful thing to do, fantastic, he was 21 years old again, when he sat on his bike, brilliant..😁👍

They are morons.. Mentally not stable..Bloody...

Yeah, my eyes became wet too

true of course, but it's better to cry in a mansion than in an apartment :P

Happy you could connect with it

I couldn't keep it dry either. So beautiful!

Same

When his dad was walking towards the bike I almost cried too. A tier went down for sure. Amazing story

Thank so much 😊

Thanks for the kind words.

Damn too many onions😭

Thank you very much!!

crazy eh??

@@Reidzandbelt ye

Keep going AJ, it gets better!

AJ, everyone has a purpose. Try to find positive friends and avoid negative people. Search videos like this and watch them. Go for hikes in the woods. Find a good hobby and pursue it. All the best.!

AJ get a motorcycle. Ride it for leisure. Trust me you'll feel amazing.
