| Re: sad day I'm just dropping you a quick line in response to the message you posted on the fireblades.org forum. Dave Furness was a member of the sv650.org forum and got his yellow blade a couple of years back to replace his yellow curvy sv, and was known to everyone on the forum as Hovis. He's been a big part of many of the rideouts and brought fun and smiles with him wherever he went.
Thanks for posting up the sad news on the fireblade site and for the messages of condolence that you guys posted, he'll be sorely missed by everyone. http://forums.sv650.org/showthread.php?t=140401 http://www.justgiving.com/hovis-13/ http://forums.sv650.org/showthread.php?t=140433 |
