A Puerto Rican biker will ride for all eternity, as his final resting place sees him embalmed on his motorbike!
Shooting victim David Morales Colon, 22, was preserved aboard his Repsol-liveried Honda CBR600 F4 to the Marin Funeral Home in Hato Rey at the specific request of his family.
Footage of his final resting place is available at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mbpy0DWp1Co

Wow that is cool thanks for that ! I told my wife to do buried me like that and not to put me in coffin. But this is cooler and give me some ideas , to preserve body and display it , but hey he is 22 and if I live any longer it is not going to be good looking display. I'm still trying to decide to use sport bike or ST , you can get cramps after few hr on sport bike.

When I die, I'd like to be buried with just my arse showing... then I would be of some use as a bicycle rack....

You would make a nifty pensil holder.

You spend most of your life getting stuffed in one way or another. Why should that have to change :)

The fate of Moderators' has been decided for us. By popular opinion, stuffing is the only possible alternative.

Now I dont know if this is cool or sick. - I mean it is a Honda
"He looks as though he is about to take his powerful motorbike for a speedy race along the streets. But this motorcyclist is going nowhere - he's dead.
This is grieving Puerto Rican-style, where the funeral home have put the body of David Morales Colon on display in what can only be described as a slightly bizarre way.
Rather than the traditional casket, Mr Colon, 22, who was murdered last Thursday, sits embalmed astride his Honda motorcycle.
