I met,"Tony" here 10 years ago.Thank you Stein for this site,and "Introducing" us.
Tony and I have put on so many miles n smiles over the years,on two wheels and in the air,on two wings.We became Brothers before we knew it.
Living 40 minutes away wasn't always easy though,and our lives didn't always let us sneak away for another ride,like we always wanted to.We sure had fun planning the next one though.

Eyes all over this section of the planet are leaking,as I type this,this I know.

Tony's plane went down yesterday,he didn't survive the crash.(he was alone)
At this point,I have no details,I just found out today.
I will try to follow up with more details as I get them.

Tony,you had so much love and kindness,you showed it to everyone that had the fortune of being your friend.You will be and ARE...sadly missed.
Til we meet again,my good friend...look down on your kids,your family and your friends...keep them safe.
I love you,Tony,and I know I'm going to miss you more and more as time goes on.I will think of you every time my Kawi fires up,that's a promise.
Rest In Peace,my Brother.

Tony was a great guy. Back when I was building my project he donated an exhaust to the cause. I wanted to pay him and he wouldn't let me, not even the shipping. To me that says a lot about his character. We had never met or had any dealings through the site prior to that. I always wanted to return the favor.

Please let us know if you have any details about funeral services etc.

So sorry for the loss of your friend. The world needs more people like Tony. I'll keep his family in my prayers.

I am sorry to hear about your loss, God bless his soul.
I have a 1980 Kawasaki KZ750 Ltd. I bought new. I recently managed to get it out of my garage after 28 years and put it on the road again (2010). I feel like a kid all over again. Since I have acquired 3 78 KZ1000 Ltd, 1 1981 KZ1000 Ltd, and another 1980 KZ750 Ltd. Love the LTD's.
