Sad news.
Saw him at the Barry Sheen festival of speed in March and he didn't look well.
A true Aussie legend in motorcycling.
RIP Warren.

Very sad.

When legends pass:I feel even more vintage.

My thoughts are with his family and friends.

Gee that's sad news. I worked with Warren in the early seventies and was just reading an OBA that had a feature on his H2, thinking that I really should take the time to catch up with him. I learnt a lot from him for which I am forever indebted,
RIP Warren.

Warren has been sick for sometime now, He started off with bone cancer and it eventually spread.
A true innovator in every sense of the word. We use some of his innovation every time we ride but dont really know it. He was also just a dam nice guy who would share his knowledge. We are all worse off now he is gone.
