I remember him well, very very nice man - we had many great talks and did a few rides together. He was pretty good with his GT550 without the ramair top cover (he said it really did not do much). I will remember him fondly.

Eric Von Willer passed this year, it was a brain tumor. He was Suziki Eric to me and rode a nice Suki 500 Cafe, black with checkerboard stripe, and then a big scooter the last couple of years. Bob Loughlin wants to put a memorial ride together next year. that will be cool. Eric was a great guy, loved to ride and was always with a smile. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bkRkWll6ZnM |

His wife passed too about two weeks after Eric. Cancer as well. I liked him and he was a very competent rider. |

I always called him Eric Von Zipper. (if you remember that reference, you may be old....). I heard of this a couple of weeks ago. I thought everyone knew already... Sorry. He had the Honda Ruckus with Suzuki stickers on it. Lane |

So surprising! I hadn't heard from Eric in a year or so. I usually see him at Barbers Vintage and have shared my extra tickets to the event with him several times. One time, and it was so funny, he forgot his wallet at home. He Found out when he got to the camp site, we hung out I gave him some money and to get home. He really enjoyed his Ruckus! I will miss bumping into him at Barbers and the Gap. Eric, Rest In Peace. |
