Frame no. R001350
Engine no. T100R H55952

This incomplete machine was purchased as a basic project, the vendor being informed by the seller that he believed the frame to be a Rickman. The owner found that the engine mountings were to suit a unit Triumph motor, and he subsequently purchased a Daytona engine to go into it. Alloy oil and petrol tanks are fitted. He lifted the cylinder head and saw nothing amiss, so went no further into the motor, which needed timing gears and a clutch, both of which he found. The rear wheel is a Rickman type, and the front a Ducati type, with a newly-cast brakeplate. The vendor intended to use the machine for sprints and hillclimbs, but is now retired from competition, rendering it surplus to requirements. Prospective buyers should satisfy themselves as to the suitability and compatibility of its component parts. It will require further work or restoration, and safety checks prior to any use. There is no documentation with this lot, which includes some spares.
