some of you may or may not know my mom's cousin and fathers best friend passed on thursday evening. I was able to make it back home (utica) to talk to him briefly and was able to help the family for a couple days until he passed. He was comfortable and on his barcalounger when it happened.
This is the guy who helped me find a good first bike and talked me through the look over on the phone. Found me my first vmax (called me at 4am the crazy *******), a '94 yellow, and went with me to pick up my black one. he actually test rode it before i got there and all he had to say was 'its slow as hell', grinning ear to ear (he was a ball buster)....
its been a tough time but he had been suffering and fighting for years. i can truly say the world is a lesser place now, but at least he is at rest.
he told my father last week he thinks he's owned around 150 - 175 bikes over the years, and i was able to look through some of the older pics at his house, some notable ones were a rz350, honda dream, honda hawk, and tons of others from the 70s and 80s i didn't have time to look through them all tho.
RIP....
