I brought my deceased brother's motorcycle to a "friend" of the family almost a year and a half ago after he agreed to repair it based off of pictures I sent to him.
Since then this person has been extremely hard to get a hold of concerning the progress on the bike.
While some work has been done, due to flooding and alleged family illnesses, the motorcycle has not been completely repaired.
I have not had any communication with this person since December.
Last Wednesday I called and then text him to let him know that I think it would be best if I come pick the bike up.
Later that day he text back saying he was dealing with family issues and would get back with me this past weekend.
Once again I have not heard from him.
What should my next move be?

go by and pick up the bike....he is obviously not interested in completing the job. be prepared to pay him for what work he has done, though.

Then you should be ok, go check the frickers knuckles

I would be at his house the next time it was convenient for me. If the bike is there then take it.

Sorry for the loss of your brother.
The "friend" has shown his true colors.
Good luck on picking up the bike.

Doesn't sound like he wants to, or isn't able to, give the bike back to you.
I would just hound the hell out of him until it is returned.

Have someone else call him about having their bike repaired. Set up and appointment to meet at his shop. You show up instead.
He can easily ignore texts and phone calls. He cannot ignore you in his face. Be prepared for the bike to not be there.

Tell them you have someone lined up to work on it but you have to have it by this Friday. Be extremely open to meeting anytime and picking it up in any condition. The thing might be half torn down and he's embarrassed to have you come pick it up. Aggressively call and get them to meet you to get the bike. Either way any sort of "friendship" is now gone so get the damned bike back or get closure that he sold it for the all-mighty meth.

If he is a friend you trust tell him you need to complete bike for closure. You appreciate what he is going through and want to pay for work to date, but need to get it back

Show up at his house with a trailer and a ball pien hammer and pick up the bike. 1 1/2 years is long enough.

Go to his house and pick it up.
