Pour one out for Lou D.  He passed February 22, 2022 of lung cancer (he was not a smoker).   Rest easy, LouDhvx.

I hate to hear that. He was an important contributor here and seemed like a genuinely good guy.

Perhaps you should start a new thread so folks who don’t read this one can get the news.

Oh No!

He will be greatly missed. He was so knowledgeable and so helpful and a real gentleman.   I am truly shocked.  Like KZQ said he will not be forgotten

That's terrible news loudhvx was our most knowledgeable member on electrical issues. I believe he also shared his skills on other sites he owned, although I do not know their URLs. If anybody knows of those sites please link them here. I'm going to change Lou's status to KZR Legend where he will join Patton and Tony as past members who touched all of us.
He will be missed and not forgotten!

I'm confused. He last logged in in May. 
Same guy?

Maybe there's a computer terminal in heaven Steve!

I have several restored bikes along with a 2006 Goldwing with a sidecar. My wife has a 2019 Suzuki DR 650 for on and off road.

So sorry to hear this. Lou was incredibly knowledgeable and generous with his advice. He even designed me a custom kickstand safety relay.
Here’s a link to Lou’s motorcycle webpage - lots of helpful info.
