Larry Elliot

Motorcycles have been a part of my life since I was in my early 20’s. During the past few decades I have owned and ridden a variety of bikes including the BMW Cruiser but my current ride is a 2002 Kawasaki Concours. I’m an advocate of safe riding and have taken the Motorcycle Enrichment Course. I also believe in personal safety gear including helmets. I’m happily married and have been employed for the past 36 years at Delphi Packard as a Stationary Engineer.
