I went to a guy I worked with wake and went through the whole funeral home looking for his casket then I saw people praying by a Harley tank.
Yup he was cremated and his Harley tank.

Putting your funerary ashes in a fuel tank is a good idea. It won't break when it falls off the mantle.

Yeah but he could end up in a fuel filter some day.

If my ashes just gotta be in a motorcycle fuel tank, could it at least be from a 1920 Indian Scout?

I'd want my ashes kept in a BMW Toaster tank. It would keep my soul warm.

lol

Ain't that the truth!

Re the OP pic...
it just kinda seems like a waste of the machine, to me...
The ded fella is apparently gonna go abt his business and feed the worms... he could have left the machine to someone who would have found good use for it.
There's not much point in trying to take it with you. IMO

But I do have a pretty good story (2nd hand) about a cowboy and his horse.

You better get going on your plans because it took this guy years of planning and prep.
Could you imagine the welder asking that man what are these brackets for and the customer telling the welder their gonna strap my dead carcass to them on my Harley.
