    Default John Lehman Passes




    It is with much regret that I share the news that John Lehman, founder of Lehman Trikes, passed away last night. He was a real pioneer of the trike industry and will be greatly missed. We ask that you keep his family in your prayers.

    Zook


    Update: From Lehman Trikes Website
    It is with great sadness that Lehman Trikes announces the untimely loss of John K. Lehman, Founder and Director. John passed away on
    Thursday, January 5, in Arizona. The suspected cause of death was a heart failure brought on by an embolism. John was 60 years old. He is survived by his wife Linda, one son - Quinten, one daughter - Leann, three surviving sisters – Gladys, Linda, Carol, and three grandchildren.

    John was one of the most recognized, admired and respected individuals in the motorcycling industry, and is generally considered the Father of the Modern Trike. In 2009 John was inducted into the Sturgis Motorcycle Museum Hall of Fame.

    In 1984, John’s passion for motorcycling and his love of family led him to create the first modern trike so his wife, Linda, could carry one of their children. John’s creation had more to do with family togetherness than a business venture. The vehicle garnered so much interest everywhere they traveled that Lehman Industries was born, and John Lehman would go on to become one of the most recognized names in motorcycling.

    In 1993, Larry Strilchuk, a long time friend, joined John and Lehman Trikes, Inc. was formed. “Today is crushingly sad,” stated Larry, “John Lehman was my lifelong friend and amazing partner. Through good and bad times, John’s gracious nature, love of family and friends, and positive outlook always touched everyone who came in contact with him. He was dearly loved and will be sorely missed.”

    Known for his caring and charitable nature, John along with Larry started a program called the “Good Turn Trike” which eventually became an annual event providing people with a passion for motorcycling, who face some of life’s greatest challenges, a trike – for free. John’s big heart helped raise money for terminally ill children, “Make A Wish Foundation”, “Kids n’ Chrome”, and many other worthwhile charities. He remained active in the company until his passing.

    Lehman Trikes, Inc.

    had recently announced a Letter of Intent from an investment group relating to the sale of Lehman Trikes USA, Inc. The passing of Mr. Lehman will not materially affect that endeavor.

    Wow.....that's so sad. John was the leader, pioneer of the modern trike industry. We knew John quite well. As much of a competitor he was to us, he was also a friend. The last several years we didn't see him often as he was trying to enjoy his semi-retirement . He was an advocate for the entire trike community, we will miss him greatly. He was a friend to all trikers and to those who benefited from his vision. We hope that our actions over the coming years will live up to what John would have wanted from all of us. Our prayers go out to his family and wife, Linda.

    So sad to hear about John, had the pleasure to first meet him up @ Americade in the late "80's when he was first starting out, and have crossed paths with him on numerous occasions. Our prayers go out to him & his family....

    It is with great sadness that we at HMS heard of John Lehman's passing. We have known John and Linda since the early 90's and always looked forward to visiting with them at the various motorcycle rallies and shows.

    It always takes a great visionary with a pioneering spirit to break out of the staus quo box and start a new trend. For today's trike industry, John Lehman was that Man. We celebrated John's worthy induction into the Motorcycle Hall of Fame.

    We will all miss him very much. John was a devout Christian so we have no doubt where his soul is. We look forward to the resurrection and the world to come (Olam Haba) where we will see him riding one of his beautifiul custom trikes.

    We wish to express our condolences to Linda and family.
