I just saw the $8500 or best offer basket case Rickman. Interesting, but a ...bit ...outside my interest level. If a bare Rickman or Seeley frame/swingarm became available for a reasonable price...
Yeah the two Jeff Peters bikes were impressive. I spoke with Harry, the father who seemed to have built much of the bikes and plays the role of crew chief, and active grandfather. Very talented and meticulous guy. The bike with the factory based chassis with the red CR tank had a few mechanical gremlins to contend with, but the Rickman seemed to have run flawlessly.
As far as I know, all the cb750s racing were running in classes requiring the 750cc limit plus 5% over, so 787cc is the max. The tech inspections do not verify these things like Bonneville salt flats LSR does, so the honor system prevails here from what I have come to understand.
That Rickman was very fast, and actually finished 3rd in a bump up class with +/- 1100cc limit bikes up to around 1982 vintage. Impressive showing
I'd like to know his best lap times of the weekend.
