I can't find the words to express the sorrow I feel right now, but my thoughts and sincerest condolences naturally go out to Odd Ivar's family.

Rest in peace

Although Ivar didn't pop in on KZr quite as often in the past two years, he's one of those people that you just can't believe is actually gone. :(

I will miss his wisdom and humor, all the incredibly wonderful pictures and stories he shared with us, and how level-headed and always willing to help he was.

This is a great loss to KZr, and an even greater loss to his family and KZr members like Stein who actually knew him personally.

I send my prayers and best wishes to his family that they will be able to cope with this in time.

Rest in peace Ivar, you mill be missed my friend.

Rest in Peace Ivar. You're now where the roads are always perfect, the sun is shining and the engine never misses a beat.

This is truly sad. I can remember when he was a moderator on the version of the sight I originally joined. Whenever over enthusiastic members let their emotions color their posts too much Ibsen was always there with a few words that, in essence, said "Let it go". It's not like the KZ400 world or even the greater KZ world lost a good person. It's more like the whole world lost a good person.

A great loss not only for members here at KZR, but also the Twin Owners site as well. I still recall one of my first searches for carb cleaning info on the old site, and coming across a reference to "Ibbyizing", wondering what it meant?
My deepest condolences to both family and friends, and his insight and experience will be missed by many. :(
