An Ohio man has been buried in a customised see-through casket seated atop his most prized possession, his Harley-Davidson motorcycle.

Bill Standley, who spent many of his years travelling across America atop his 1967 Electra Glide, eventually settled down in Mechanicsburg, Ohio to raise a family,Metro.co.uk reported.

Standley was determined to take the bike with him when he departed, enlisting the help of sons Pete and Roy to create the 9ft-by-11ft pexiglass box.

According to his daughter, the idea for the unique funeral came about 18 years ago when they were discussing what he would do with this bike when he died.
