- Hello my husband's youtube family.
With devastating pain and unbareable sorrrow, I wanted to let you know my husband, known to you as dadwithabike, has passed away. I'm posting the video of his funeral service as a farewell to you. The background music are the piano renditions played by our children of pieces both John & I like.
As a working widow, the children will be fine in my care. A few of you have reached out wanting to do something for the kids. Instead of sending flowers or other well-wishing material things, I wanted to provide an option to redirect the fund to the kids' rainy-day fund, for those who feel compelled to do so. The gofundme link is below:

Thank you for your thoughts & prayers.
Thank you all for following my brother's channel. He was very proud if it and loved doing the videos. He lives on through his family and this channel. I am thankful for this channel every day.
Your words mean a lot.
I thank his wife for this video.
❤️ Carol
So sorry for your loss
Thank you
May he Rest In Peace.
He was a pretty cool person. Would always take time to reply to my comments about my bobber and genuinely seemed supportive.
Life is way to short.....
Wtf. I was just discovering this dude and he seemed cool. I'm sorry for your family's loss, if any of y'all read this.
We do... I watch his videos almost everyday. Thank you for your kind words
Last week I bought a new Metzeler Cruisetec tyre for my bike, and despite not researching the tyre prior to purchase, it was after I've been riding with the new tyre that I found Dadwithabike's UA-cam clip ride review on the same tyres (yesterday, mid March 2023). I even posted a question to him today asking about the long term satisfaction of the tyres, and then decided to look at what other video clips he had posted, but sadly I discovered this UA-cam clip which gave me an instant feeling of sadness, even though was a person I never know. My sincere belated condolences to John's family. Kind regards from the south west corner of the island of Australia.
Dude same! I was just watching his video of him tuning his bobber
@@Jonathan-L thank you
Whoever posted this video…..THANK YOU! There is a community (youtube community) that is missing Dadwithabike….John. This video gives us abit of John…made us feel part of his life in a way. So THANK YOU again.
For those asking what happened...it was a motorcycle accident. He was thrown from his bike.
The report said high speed, but my brother was a not a reckless rider and he was very skilled. Also, it happened at an intersection. I do not believe my brother was riding at an unsafe speed. There may have been an obstruction in the road. We don't know. There was only one witness, but that person only saw a motorcycle pass him was his report.
Thank you all for your kind words...
Please be safe out there ...
I'm sorry for your loss Carol. Thoughts and prayers are with the family
We are sorry for your loss.
Oh my goodness, I'm so sorry for your loss. I bought an indian scout bobber last year and have been watching your brother's videos a lot. May his soul rest in peace....
@@ThePeacefulResistor thank you
@@BySixa thank you
I loved his Scout videos. I still use them to work on my machine. I’m grateful for John and his help even though I never knew him. Good people are the people that do the things to help people they don’t even know. Good man.
When I woke up this morning and opened UA-cam I was excited to see another video by dadwithabike. When I read the title "dadwithabike Memorial Service" I was in denial. Maybe John was posting a memorial service for someone else. I had no idea his family was posting this to honor him. John and I were suppose to meet up a few times in Austin when I was in town but it never worked out due to our schedules. Even at COTA this year, we couldn't connect. We were suppose to collaborate on a video together comparing the Tracer to the Multistrada, but it never happened. We talked on the phone and talked UA-cam and motorcycles. John, you will be missed. RIP my veteran brother.
As a Veteran….and as a biker…..you will be missed….rest in peace, John.
I’ll be a better dad for my kids everyday and your energy will live on
I still can't believe this happened. He was a great guy and always there to help any of us in the community. Any questions you needed and he would be there to answer them. It's safe to say that from all of us in the online community even tho we didn't know him on a personal level we did knew him to some extent that it still hurts with all time we all got to talk and interact with him on FB and UA-cam. He will be missed greatly. RIP brother 🙏
To John's ( dadwithabike ) family and friends my heart felt sorrow goes out to you. I am from Australia and just thought i would let you know how far his inspiration and respect reached, he will be missed all over the world, may he RIP and please be kind to each other. A truly good man. Cheers Larry.
I am so sorry for your loss. I just got into watching his videos. Thank you for sharing the funeral service. RIP
As a father and husband myself it breaks my heart to see your family going through this. I watched some of Johns videos in the past on his Scout Bobber and his passion he had for the little community he grew. While I only knew him from his videos he seemed like a really awesome guy.
May God continue to watch over your family, and may the legacy that John created for his friends, family and in biker community continue to give strength and peace to you all
Thank you for sharing this. John was a genuine and amazing individual. His memory and lessons he taught us will live on.
RIP. Only knew him through his videos but seemed like a great bloke. Sending love and best wishes to John's family from the UK.
RIP John. Thank you for the advise and guidance to me and within to bobber community.
Reading the letter at the end was beautiful. I heard about his passing in an Indian forum and couldn’t believe it. He seemed like such a good dude. As a father who loves to ride this definitely weighs on me. Nothing but love for his family.
Sorry for the loss he was a great guy , always responded to any questions and always tried to help.
One of my favorite youtube chanels. Rest in Peace
Oh no this is terrible. My condolences. I got my Scout Bobber around the same time he got his and watched all his videos about the progress of his modifications and personalisation making many similar ones to my own as we shared similar tastes in mods. Rest in peace brother. Keep on riding into the sunset. Much love from UK Indian riders and bikers everywhere. 👊🏻
John will be missed. I subscribed before I even took ownership of my ISB and even did some of his upgrades. Watched all his content and asked questions which all got answered. Never meet him but from the couple interactions I've had here, he was a great guy. Thank you for sharing this and may John ride in peace.
I just stumbled upon this channel from a suggested video and thought I'd check it out.. latest video is this one and I wanted to tell you that I'm sorry for your loss and even more sorry for your children.. I pray that you are all getting along as well as to be expected..
My condolences to the family, as a Canadian Armed Forces member I know that no words can soften your loss. He will truly be missed, he was an inspiration to soooooo many people and the reason I got an Indian Bobber last year. He will be missed and my thoughts and prayers go with you all.
I never met John, but through his videos and FB group participation, I felt I knew him. He always replied to my comments and questions. Great human being. Tremendous loss. My God bless him and his family.
Rest in peace mate and thanks for the videos. From Australia.
I just started watching dadwithabike about a month ago. Sad to here any brother on two wheels get killed. We just lost another biker in our area this week in an accident. Stay safe out there!
So sad!😢 He will be missed and never forgotten. RIP brother! Sorry for your lost. Our thoughts and prayers with you ma’am.
Thanks for sharing his memory with the world. As a fan I enjoyed his zeal for the ride and the tweaking he always did. He meant alot to us and still does.
Beautiful service, like many I was touched by John through his channel and was in shock when he passed. It’s wonderful to learn more about him and learned a lot from his wife’s beautiful message at the end of the video. My heart aches for your loss, though it’s great to know he had such a great life and that he lived it to the fullest. You will be missed John.
My heart goes out to all his family and friends. My prayers go out to you all. May God bless and Provide some peace during this time of grief and sadness. God Bless.
Wow I’ve been watching his videos ever since I bought my Indian scout bobber 3 months ago and have learned so much useful information and enjoyed watching these videos it wasn’t until today I was looking at another video of his that someone commented saying he passed. Seemed like a great man and father. We share the same love for motorcycles and hope the best for his family. R.I.P DadOnABike
Still hard to believe. He was inspirational. May be RIP. Thank you for sharing. Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.
I am truly sorry for your loss.
Condolences and greetings from Copenhagen Denmark.
I first off would like to give Johns family my condolences. A sudden death of a special loved one is always difficult. I am so sorry for the pain you feel.
I bought an Indian motorcycle in April of 2022. Then I started searching on UA-cam for individuals who had experience with that type of motorcycle.
I watched Dad With A Bike and he explained everything so clearly. His ambition to help everyone was evident just in the words he spoke. I only subscribed to his channel for a short time before the accident. But John made an impact on my motorcycle adventure. To be honest I’ve considered doing away with motorcycles because this great man left us too early.
I don’t know what I will do about motorcycles yet. But I wish I could have met John in other ways. I understand he truly loved his country and served for us. He obtained a masters degree in a field that I or many of us would never grasp the concept.
I’m judging from afar, but I do believe we have lost a man with good in his heart.
Rip John. You will be missed. To Jon’s wife, two kids, brother, and all loved ones, please stay strong. When things get low, remember john’s streangth and his ability to be upbeat and strong. Then you do the same thing, pick yourself up and be strong.
Rip John (dadwithabike)
very sorry for your loss!! :( I just found this channel a few weeks ago when I was purchasing my Indian Scout Bobber. I subscribed because of the great content and detail on the bikes. this is very sad to hear!
I’m so sorry for your loss. The only thing that I can say to you (John’s family and good friends) is remember all the good times you had with him. It’s hard to loose a Father, a brother or even a husband . My thoughts and prayers are with you during this time.
Man I just discovered this channel and have been binging all his videos. He seemed like an amazing and awesome dude. So sorry to see that he's passed.
May you find peace and comfort as you mourn this tremendous loss. May your pain be alleviated by loving memories. Sending you strength from the Midwest.
I was new to the channel but really like what he had to say. Rest In Peace and may Peace be with the Family and friends.
I will miss John. His videos were very informative. I even asked him a question about a part on his bike which was like mine, and he responded directly to me with an answer. Very personable. My condolences to his family at this sad time.
Godspeed John. Thank you for everything.
My thoughts are with your family in this difficult time.
I’m completely shocked, I’m a subscriber from the UK and a part of the Tracer 900 group that John has helped me and plenty of others on.
Thoughts are with your family John, thank you for always being such an engaging person within the motorbike community.
Rip brother. Til Valhalla
I’m very sorry for your loss.
I watched and enjoyed his videos and will miss them. So sorry for your loss.
Watched just a few of “dadwithabike’s” videos and subscribed right away. It was easy to see that he was a very skilled and knowledgeable rider, who I could learn from. Plus, his personality was great too! Just realized from comments and noticing the memorial video that John passed. I can’t express enough, how very sorry I am for the family’s loss.
I am in shock today when I found out about your husband John.I didn’t know him personally but watching him on his UA-cam channel.I am so sorry for your lost and your family lost.He was a great person to watch and listen too and her service to our country will not be forgotten.I will miss him.
I recently stumbled across this channel and he seemed like a very kind and respectful individual. I'm shocked and saddened. I'm so so sorry for your loss! We're sending all our love and prayers your way.
I am so sorry to hear of his passing. I'm a new follower and really enjoyed his content. My thoughts and prayers are with your family. God bless.
I am so sorry for the loss in your family. John seemed like an excellent man since the first video I've seen of his. I wish I could have had the chance to meet him in person. He cared so much about his community and his family. John, you may be gone but you will never be forgotten. Thank you for your service to those around you and to your country. RIP 🙏
I just found this Chanel and it’s so good! So sad he’s not around anymore. My condolences. If his videos are any indication, he really was an awesome person. I’m subbed and am watching all his videos.
Im in shock!!! Lost for words. No way….
My condolences to the family of DADWITHABIKE. Im so sorry for your loss.
Thank you for the videos. RIP
Thank you for sharing this video. I was looking forward to having a drink or two with John some day. I'll save my last beer for you, John.
Such a great guy. Rest In Peace. He will be missed by many.
Thank you to the family and friends. I just watched my first "dadwithabike" video and subscribed. What drew me in was he emphasized safety, the right gear, and don't scrimp on that gear "because it WILL save your life." I am so sorry to each of you. Devastated to find his channel and see his passing 😔
Wow, I just started watching his videos about a day or two ago. I was looking on reviews on suspension for my scout. I’m sorry to be the last horse in the race, ride in peace brother.
I want to say how sorry I am for your loss. John will be missed. May he rest in peace.
I stumbled upon one of his videos today and thought I like this guy a lot. Breaks my heart to see this as my 2nd video of dadwithabike. RIP my friend.
May he rest in peace. Sorry for your family 's loss, God bless you all!!!
Condolences for your loss, John touched lives distances far apart, he will be missed by many…
Prayers to your family. He was a great guy and a huge help when I needed advice about working on my Indian. He will be missed and is definitely loved. God Bless
Via con Dios John, loved watching your videos and your advice seemed nowhere near reckless to me. No matter how he was taken, your loss is a tragedy. My deepest condolences to you - John's family and friends, of which there are obviously many.
RIP Dad with a bike, you are and will always be missed.
Marc from Australia.
I am praying for the family. I am a huge fan of his videos and only know him through them but he seemed like an awesome guy. Too bad hes gone too soon. Rest in Peace.
I could not believe this when I first got the news. I am so sad about it. Thank you for sharing this video. All my best to his family, including his riding buddies. He will be missed by many. My heart goes out to his loving family.
What an incredibly beautiful memorial. Thank you for sharing it with all of us. I wish I could’ve met John. I spoke with him many times in the motorcycle groups and privately on messenger. I even bought an accessory for my bike from him. He was always so friendly, helpful and quick to respond. Again, thank you for sharing this. Prayers to his entire family and everyone who knew and loved him.
I'm so sorry for this terrible loss. I have been watching several of his videos that popped up in my searches and suggestions.
I never realized that he's no longer with us.
I’m a dad with an Indian scout bobber and a vet. John helped me through his video to put on my fairing. The great thing about him is he’s like a brother that says “relax I got you! I’ll will show you a much better way!” Thank you John and God Bless you and your family
Thank you
Like many on here... I have recently found this channel as I'm interested in getting a Scout Bobber... John has a lot of information on this channel that has swayed me to the Bobber... I just now have watched the Memorial service & am in disbelief... This is the risk all of us as motorcycle riders take... We know the pit falls & dangers but we still love being out there feeling free...
My sincere condolences to all of Dadwithabike's family & friends... May he RIP from Moocher - Australia
Such a lovely tribute from Moocher. Ride safe.
Rest in Paradise, John ❤️✊🏻🇺🇸
Wow this is heartbreaking.
I didn’t know him but it was a lot of fun watching the channel and listening to him.
rest well, rest in love and rest in peace john i couldnt be here for the long run but i got to join long enough to enjoy it. My condolences to Dadwithabike family.
Rest In Peace Thanks for your service and advice.
Rest In Peace my brother. Watched one of your videos and bought my Indian scout bobber the very next day. See you in the other side.
My condolences from France. Eventhough I was not a subscriber, I enjoyed his videos about the Indian Scout and I could feel his passion and kindness...
I just found his channel, a fell in love with his content, a few days. Truly heartbreaking. May his soul Rest In Peace
So sorry for your loss I have watched several of his videos
🙏
this guy was one of the first indian riders i 've watched and he is among those who gave me the will to ride one too here in France. i feel so sad to hear he is gone among the angels. toutes mes condoleances a sa famille,ses amis et sa communauté.
Rest in peace brother, and ride smooth among the clouds 🙏
What.. I can't believe this happened. We will miss you brother.. RIP.
My deepest condolences to the family.
My condolences to his many friends and family. I only recently became aware of his channel, but he always came off as a honest and friendly guy, one whose love for both riding and his family was readily apparent in his user name.
Oh wow, as a fellow Indian rider I just stumbled upon one of John’s super helpful videos, only to learn that he died in an accident. I know this is very late but I wanted to say I really admire that you decided to capture these intimate moments and to share them with the community he built. And thank you for leaving his videos online for everyone to enjoy; even today, John is making a positive difference in the world. Wishing you continued strength in dealing with your loss.
Totally shocked.
Rest in Peace dadwithabike, great guy and I loved your videos.

Don't take life for granted, in the blink of an eye everything can change.
