So what's a Rickman?
« on: March 12, 2010, 12:40:13 PM »
I often see Rickman fairings for the Hondas talked about on here but now I find a whole bike made by Rickman?
The engine is obviously Triumph so did (do) Rickman make frames as well?

All the Honda  accessory fairings,boxes and crashbars in the UK were made by Rickman in the 70's
