  • This 1994 Harley Davidson FXR belonged to my dad, who tragically lost his life while riding his motorcycle on October 20, 2018. Six years later, I am taking on the project of restoring and rebuilding this bike in his honor. Join me in this project, and together we can honor those who've lost their lives far too soon while doing what they love most.

    The black and gold looks brilliant mate. Gotta keep that colour scheme in honour of your Dad. Just my opinion. (I’m probably biased though - I ride a black and brass FXST)

    I’m so sorry for the tremendous loss. It is such a gorgeous bike. What a beautiful way to honor dad.
    I have to say I get nervous whenever my motorcycle man is on the road and especially here in so cal. Then mini motorcycle man who loves to ride. I say lots and lots of prayers however I would never want to take their freedom away. We raised our boys on dirt bikes so of course they still love bikes.
    The cross next to his bike and images at the end are so touching.

    Sorry for your loss, avid rider with a couple HD’s in my garage so I understand the risk we all take, make that a tribute bike he’d be proud of!!!Some irony in finding your tribute build and the name Liberty Ranch. My dog rides a sidecar motorcycle with me and she was given hours/days to live. Like the gold on the bike she is a beautiful golden, her name is Liberty. I look forward to watching what you do with the bike, although not an FXR one of my bikes is a dyna so pretty similar.
