It was billy lane he was always jealous of larry!!!!!!

 

I think that maybe Billy was a little jealous because Larry had more tatoes than he did.

 

They have potatoes?

 

lofnl

 

LOL, what kind?

I heard that a UFO attempted to beam up Indian Larry and this caused him to loose contol of his mutersickle.

 

It's true. I read it on the internet.

 

Larry was liked/respected by everybody.....the guy was a living legend, a throwback to the likes of Jon Kosmoski (House of Kolor), Von Dutch, etc. In a group full of wannabe's he was without a doubt the real deal. I for one truly miss him! As popular as he became, he was still just another dude. the kind of guy you could meet have a beer with, and talk about....whatever......

At least some of the new guys have the right idea, J.James, Billy Lane, etc.

He went because it was simply his time.......

Indian Larry

Larry Desmedt, a legendary custom motorcycle builder and stunt rider who went by the name Indian Larry, died on Aug. 30 of severe head injuries he sustained in an accident. He was 55.

Indian Larry was performing one of his signature stunts last Saturday during the Liquid Steel Classic and Custom Bike Series in Concord, N.C. He was standing on the seat when suddenly the motorcycle began to wobble. Unable to maintain his balance, Indian Larry fell off the bike before it crashed. He was not wearing a helmet.

Born in Cornwall-on-Hudson, N.Y., Indian Larry was a teenager when he bought his first motorbike, a 1939 Harley Knucklehead, for $200. He took it apart and spent the next nine months learning how to put it back together again. He later moved to California and apprenticed under hot rod builder Ed "Big Daddy" Roth.

The tattoo-covered metal-sculptor and motorcycle mechanic launched the Brooklyn-based Gasoline Alley motorcycle workshop in 1991 and devoted the rest of his life to creating and riding "old school bikes." Several of his custom-built motorcycles won awards, including the "Grease Monkey," which was named Easy Rider magazine's Chopper of the Year.

Indian Larry also performed stunts in movies ("Quiz Show," "200 Cigarettes") and on television. He was a featured artist on the Discovery Channel's "Biker Build-Off" series, and once rode a motorcycle through a wall of fire on "The Late Show With David Letterman."

A memorial will be held at Gasoline Alley on Sept. 19. His autobiography, "Grease Monkey, The Life and Times of Motorcycle Artist Indian Larry," is scheduled for publication in 2006. Indian Larry is survived by his wife Bambi, the Mermaid of Coney Island.
