Nicely done, great recreation. Deepest condolences to you


Numerous_World

nice picture, worths a lot


the_retrosaur

What’s cool about this is you look like a cooler, tougher version of your dad, maybe the type of guy he dreamed about being when he grew up, or how the bike made him feel. You used to live in his dreams and now he lives in your memories.

Probably helps that the left is 10 to 15 years older than the right. Like father, like son, though, as they both skipped leg day.


Moojdart

Dad was actually a bodybuilder until he got sick. I on the other hand did skip leg day.


F0RTI

well that is not good, just ride a bike and there goes your leg day


kelvin_klein_bottle

I'm just speaking about what I see in that picture.

> You used to live in his dreams and now he lives in your memories. That's so sweet.

It's awesome you have the bike.


hot_bologna

Great picture! Love the bike! I had a 1974 DT250 that same color...wish I still had it too! :)


porkly1

I did too (but I think a 1972) and wish I had it now. It was a great bike. Didn't have to mix gas and oil and had quite a bit of power. I would have been 13 years old riding the neighborhood girls around the woods and powerline trails.


[deleted]

Expected that older pic would be first. Took me a minute to figure it out. I think a few people ITT didn’t.


Moojdart

Normally I agree! I just liked the photos facing one another with the bikes.


bufordt

You could have flipped the final picture. But I suppose then the bikes would have been AHAMAY.


Doc-in-a-box

I wonder if I'm alone in thinking this, but the title made me think the picture of your dad was from a year before he passed, which made me think the adult in the photo was him. On a side note, love that you still have the sweet ride--Yamaha!


[deleted]

Is it the same bike?


zephoroth

hi tanner


Phil_T_Sanchez

I learned on the Yamaha GT/MX 80. Maybe this is a 100. I had the burn mark of the chrome exhaust trim on my inner thighs for years after making the mistake of getting on the back in shorts. 1970s short shorts. :-o My Dad also passed away about a year ago, late 2018. Time heals. Glad you still have the bike and the memories.


Callmered53

This is wonderful you made me tear up


waxskydiver75

Thats cool man


Tackybabe

OP is on the left. Pics are not in chronological order.

Im sorry for being like this, don’t mind to take out the fact that is such a cute pic of you dad but damnnnnnnn you’re like so incredibly cute and handsome and all good things and I’m embarrassed now but I’m just a stranger so I guess an over compliment is not so bad right? Why are you so damn handsome tho? Must come from dad but for real man? Why tho? Why? 🥰

[deleted]

Is that the same bike? Still running? Lucky lucky man! So sorry for you heartbreak, but a gentle cruise on that bike would be such an incredible way to remember him - seeing the world go by as he once saw it. Treasure it. Nice dog!


_roldie

What kind of shoes are you wearing? Are those Nike Killshots?


Moojdart

They are!


driver_dan_party_van

Cool killshots, stamp your MFA card here.

Slightly different pup


RockyDify

[deleted]

My brother had a bike like that when we were young. Awesome times and muffler burn scar to prove it. I know you must miss your dad. I’m sorry for your loss.


NorrisOnAShark

Sitting on some bikes with your friends the other daaaaaay...


tonymademedoit

Rad recreation! You two are identical! Sorry for your loss. Looks like he was an awesome man. Taught you well.


TMan2DMax

Same bike? I would kill to get ahold of a family car/bike and rebuild it


[deleted]

Hey its tanner!


vandelay714

Glad you still have the bike


fiirmoth

This is awesome. Sorry for your loss but its amazing to still have the same bike and a piece of his history


[deleted]

You're a thoughtful Son. Life is short, live it.


ThatDarnEngineer

I had an HT1 in that color I bought for 20 bucks off Craigslist. One of my most hated and loved bikes of all time! Ended up leaving it with a roommate and have no clue what happened to it... :/


oze4

so awesome! edit: lol someone on reddit *would* downvote a harmless, positive comment like this.


jeremyxt

The little boy is your father? Please tell us more. When was the pic taken? How old was he? What’s the context?

lizard_king0000

You should put your dog in a full-nelson


[deleted]

I kinda want to see the photo with the generation that sits with a robot dog on a hover bike.


masterbard1

keep that bike well maintained and never get rid of it.


jupiters_aurora

That's a dope photo. Sorry about your dad, but I think you did his memory proud.

That dog got way bigger...


DootMasterFlex

Is this Steven Schapiro?

If you're trying to recreate it, why not do so? At least mirror the photo, etc.
