Reading a few reports he died testing a BMW in South Africa.

Bloody sad and a great loss if its true.
Been reading his stuff for years,
watched his web site and got his books.
He had a true passion for bikes and a
great way of getting it across.

So sad to hear. I've also read his articles over the years and just the other day a you tube of his testing the Speed Triple R. RIP Kevin.

A sad loss to motorcycling.
Saw his work everywhere from MCN to The Telegraph and more recently on line.

There was a short and sweet obituary on the Ash on Bikes site, written by his daughter. Sad news indeed.

RIP Kevin.
