My condolences to you and his family....may he RIP

You will have plenty of time to think this over, there's really no need to make a decision right now during your grieving period.

I hopped on the bike for the first time in a while today. Needed to see where my head was at. I think it's screwed on straight (for the most part), and I've decided to continue riding for a number of reasons. One being, i think my buddy would have wanted me too. I don't think he would have been cool with me packing it up for a mistake he made.

However i ride with a new sense of respect for the bike and those of us that ride.

Thank you to everyone on this board that provided some much needed advice/thoughts/guidance/opinions/condolences. It truly helped me figure out what would be best for me. And for those that have been in a similar situation, much respect.

Ride safe, everyone.
