It is sad when the old timers in our sport pass on. I used to work near to Truett & Osborn in WIchita, KS back in the early 70s. Being in the motorcycle business back then I had several opportunities to visit the Truett & Osborn shop. Bonnie Truett was and is a legend in the motorcycle world. Bonnie was a true innovator and his passing will be a great loss to most motorcyclists.

After reading Fred's OP,I went to the Sturgis MC Museum where Bonnie was inducted into the Hall of Fame (2014) and told them of his passing.The museum folks were aware and thanked me for checking to see they knew.
