The Patron Saint of KZ1300's - Paul J Bezilla - any one know where he is?

... rainy in central Kali so doing 1300 research from the old site.. and came across Paul Bezilla, the 'patron saint'. Has anyone heard from him? On the Iron Butt Association site, I see a Paul J Bezilla who completed several long distance on a kz1300.. same guy?

One and the same?

The Patron Saint - that was a name that David Ewing gave him - he certainly had a lot of knowledge on 1300's.
I bought a bike of him , a B2 ,which I still have.-at least a decade ago.-maybe 15 years.
He had 4 or 5 bikes-maybe more -at different stages of usefulness- of which mine was one of them.
If you are looking back over the old forum -he had a bright green B2-had extra fuel cells attached to the rear of the bike to do those Iron Butt Rallies.
He told me that he'd had enough of motorcycles , and was moving onto other things.

YEP, that FB link is Paul. He replied back on Messenger saying that was him. His FB page shows him in shop primarily working on old tractors...
but it does look like he has a newer Wing for LD riding...
