R.I.P. Bill McLean


Surrey, BC - Sunday night saw the passing of former Canadian MX Champion and business owner Bill McLean after a long and courageous battle with a rare blood disorder. This generous, witty and wise man made his mark on the Canadian motorcycle industry and was taken far too soon, at 55 years of age.

McLean passed away at his home surrounded by his family. The former owner of Pacific Yamaha/BMW for 24 years is survived by his wife of 31 years, Jan, daughter Lindsay and son Brad.

A memorial service is to be held on Friday, April 11 at 10:30am at the Peace Portal Alliance Church. The family has asked that in lieu of flowers that a donation be made to the Leukemia/Bone Marrow Transplantation Program of BC.

Bill McLean will be greatly missed.
