Wow.
That's like Henry Ford dying in a car accident.
What a shame.
His very name epitomized riding the open road.
Who cares what brand he represented. We all ride for the joy of it.

What made him such an icon is that he was the owner of the Daytona dealership
which for bikers is pretty much the holy grail of dealerships because of Daytona
bike week.
