Guy Who Had To Quit Because of Stroke
« on: January 04, 2024, 08:13:47 PM »
About a year or two ago. a big poster here had a stroke and quit riding, selling a lot of his scooters. What was his name and how is he doing? Just curious.

that would be our friend, Kansas Kymco. Sadly, he passed away. He had a huge collection of bikes and scooters that he mostly sold off through his local dealer. he probably owned more Kymcos at one time than anyone, anywhere!

How long did he live after the stroke? He didn't sound too hopeful.

From memory I think around 6 months? He posted here a few times during that period and received much love and support from us all just willing him to recover. Sadly that was not to be. He is sadly missed by us and, I’m sure, his family and beloved collies.

KK was last active here in Sept of '22.
Very active ~! - he averaged @ 1.25 posts per day for the 3 years he was a member.

He had such great plans for his new shop, etc.
Sad.
He is missed.
