SCORE!!!!!Full Rickman fairing
« on: March 16, 2009, 08:09:03 AM »
I dont want to make you all envious,but I have to gloat.On saturday I scored a full Rickman fairing with all the mounting hardware AND the paperwork that originally came with it for 200 bucks.I will post a pic later.Nyaaa Nyaa!I will be putting it on my 73 Cb750.Time to change the handlebars once more.I dont look forward to pulling those wires out again.

Nice fairing and great price Bart. Can you show us how it mounts (and hardware) so we can compare with Uncrashs recent pics...I am curious!

thanks

I want to see it NOW though! Dagnabbit, hurry up. Matching the original sunrise orange is a phenomenal idea and I just want to drool over the thought for a little bit. I'll just be making a puddle.

Hey Steve - did I sell you that Rickman?  I got it on a CB750F with a Turbo installed and sold it.  Would have been a couple years back.  I'm near High Park in Toronto.

I have a copy of the original Rickman Honda build instructions and in there they list the name of the color as Daytona Orange. Hmmmm, predates BMW's use of the name!

Yes the original Rickman was Daytona orange,but I want to match the original Honda color,as I love my bike and would never repaint it because it is very clean,and I love metal flake.If I had the whole kit I would do it Daytona,but I will have to settle for what I do have,AND I have a very reputable guy right here in town who will paint the fairing to match for a couple of hundred bucks.All I have to do source the paint.Anyone know where I can get the paint.
