    Sad news indeed.

    In 2004/5 he gave a nod to the US importers of Husky to develop street legal dirt bikes. Mr. Rob Keith was given the task....and in 2006 the US dirt bike world was rocked with 50 state street legal dirt bikes. Husky was suddenly hot. He gave a famous interview in Cycle News in '05 predicting something 'revolutionary'. Obviously others have followed. It branded Husky as a dual sport/street legal race bike when everyone else was focused on 4 stk motocross.

    Every time ya ride pavement on a TE in Cali, you have this guy to thank.

    Just one small example of his passion, his vision, his moxie.

    Condolences to his family and friends.
