Sorry to hear that, he fought a tough fight against his disease for many years.  He is the perfect example of the American success story but he always found a way to give back.  Nice guy and a great Company to due business with.......

Damn, Thats way too young. JP contributed so much to motorcycling, and was such a positive ambassador for the sport. He has  a nice video on you tube advocating organ donation. Link below in case anyone is interested.

Became acquainted with him back in '88, when all his new company sold was Harley stuff. Seemed like a genuinely decent guy, God bless him and his loved ones...
