I'm a moderator on a bike forum. Probably 10,000 plus members and you get to know guys pretty well. I'm thankful that I only knew this guy vaguely.

Shy of having a pair of dykes handy, I think this would be game over. I don't even think many could get it off with a knive. Especially if while still being attacked.

Ill ll up date this as more is learned.

I do believe so. I'll inquire. He spent the night before with a friend of mine.

Treat others as you'd like to be treated, stay away from illegal activities and those that participate in them. From my experience there are very few victims of random random homicide.

I just read that there apparently was an accident involving the motorcycle. I wonder what kind of motorcycle?

Quote from facebook:

"Stanislaus Sheriff is asking for assistance on this case. On October 07, 2015, at approximately 1050 hours Robert K. Kope was found deceased along the west shoulder of J59 north of Cooperstown Road in the area of La Grange. He had been riding a motorcycle in the area and it appears there was a minor accident involving the motorcycle. Kope was located approximately a quarter of a mile from the location of the motorcycle. Kope's death has been classified as a homicide and the Sheriff's Department is seeking anybody with information regarding Kope or his death. Please contact Det. Cory Brown of the Stanislaus County Sheriff's Department at (209) 567-4485."

The thought of someone slipping a zip tie around my neck makes me want to vomit. What a terrible way to go.

I'd be happy to debate your statement. However out of respect for parties involved and that wonderful thing called GOOGLE / SEARCH ENGINE. I'll pass.

There would be precious little reason to carry concealed if you believe this. As an old Boy Scout, I like to be prepared for the random bad events.

kawasaki ZRX. I've owned 5.

speculation here.... After leaving Charlie's house he was just going to simply ride around and snap some pics. If you look at the crime scene pic, maybe he strapped away from the bike to get the bike in a framed shot, as we often do. Possibly even leaving his helmet on and ear buds in. Not condition yellow by no stretch, but possible. Someone not even previously seen could get the drop on someone like that.

The he bike was found at least a 1/4 from his body. Speculation is the killer made it that far before wrecking it and fleeing.

Him and and I share many of the same friends, IMO, he would never have been mixed up in anything illegal. My friends vouch the same.

I know that area extremely well and have ridden that road hundreds of times (I grew up right by there). Lots of low income, ranch land, and meth heads right around there.

My sister who's an attorney worked a case like that involving meth heads. Girlfriend set up boyfriend. Her brother was in the back seat and did the industrial strength zip tie thing on the boyfriend. He then went to bar and bragged about it. Freaking sick.
