His rabid RC fanaticism and white early 90s AGV leathers were nicely countered by his machineshop skills.

You guys really gotta meet and hang with him, maybe go for a ride too.
The dude bleeds 10w40, and he really does like all bikes, despite his rabid fanaticism for Honda v-4s.
His best friend Marv is a total Kawasaki hound and has a fully kitted out ZX-7r just like Eboz used to ride, and Larry does a bunch of custom work for him.
Also he does some one-off machining for superbike racers like Larry Pegram, etc.
Yeah, I've heard all the Mr. RC45 stories from the mall in Tijuana up to the present day, and I totally "get it". But underneath it all, he's a gear head and fellow rider to the extreme who really does like all bikes, especially if they are V-4s and not stinky inline-fours!
Lol!

Larry is probably well aware of number 9's existence now that it's been uncrated, as it is his personal mission to locate all the RC45s in the states and account for each VIN that was imported.
Hey, it's better than knitting or making lawn ornaments.

Damn right. Larry could get on people's nerves, but he is a motorcyclist to the core. A bit over the top about the V4 thing at times, but always cool to me and everyone at the lone WCRM I attended.
I wish some members here had cut him more slack...
But that's my opinion. I could be wrong...
