Restoring Something Memorable

My first project when I came back to the Philippines is to restore my big brother's motorcycle. The Motorcycle was unused for almost 4 years since my brother died in a car accident. For the Love of my brother's memories, I and my father agreed to clean and restore the motorcycle. It was really dusty and rusty but still in good shape. The brand of the bike is KTM RC 390 not really an old model.

As you can see in the .gif the bike is really abandoned and almost forgotten for how many years. When I came back here, I asked my father about the status of the bike if they still use it because I really did not notice the bike. My father told me to check in the garage. When I check it I really feel so bad because it looks really bad.

We cleaned it and I called a motorcycle mechanic to check the status of the sensitive part of the bike. Then he concluded that the main problem only is the dead battery. So without hesitation, I bought the necessary one.

We need to value every memory of our loved ones. Every time I ride the bike I always remember our happy memories together with my big brother. Now It's working perfectly and ready for my next road adventure. I am looking forward to my next travels with this bike and share it with you guys.
