I only had the chance to meet Jay last year at ONSTOC, but I did have a great conversation with him. I believe he will truly be missed by many. RIP Jay.
Jay brought that to ONSTOC in White Lake... he and his riding crew had a cabin a little off the beaten path. I was out recruiting for the group photo, Jay twisted my arm to have a bourbon (he only had the best) around the picnic table. Talked incessantly how he liked the DCT on that Wing. Those guys wanted me to go on their "day ride" into Quebec... day ride to me was 8 hours, but they were going to Mt. Tremblant and area...... They were gone for 13 hours plus..... they liked to get on the horses and ride all day long.Here's a pic of Jay with his new Wing in 2018 on the Cabot Trail.
What a great road trip that was! It means even more to me now
He loved that bike more than any bike he ever had before. There would never be a better bike, ... until there was.Every year or so that happened.
What a great friend.
