I was just thinking about Larry and ...

I never met Larry in person but we had several dozen emails back n forth over several years.
He was very interested in my projects and we shared flow bench numbers between us on the smaller
motors (650/750) He was always very polite and had no issues on sharing his knowledge.
He was interested in what my local porting guy was doing for me. I never sent him any work
but shared what I had done so he could compare results.
Very sorry to hear of his passing, gone too soon.

I just saw this sad news. Boy, that is a shock. I met Larry a number of years ago - and we talked and emailed each other a number of times over the years. RIP my friend.

What a shame. Larry was a great man. He built me a head for a kz1000 of mine back a while ago.
