The Japanese manufacturers were producing engines that produced unheard of power, but the frame technology was lagging behind. Rickman stepped in to offer upgraded items to make the former motorcycles more capable of utilising that engine power. Offered, primarily in kit form, in-era these Rickman machines would have been a special site on the roads. To build up the bikes, the owner needed to understand the components they were buying and the knowledge to fit them, let alone the funds to buy the components, thus making them a collectors’ machine.

Purchased from a gentleman in his 90s who had owned the bike for 29 years, it had been stored in a barn under a tarpaulin and never used. Subsequently, it has been stripped down to the frame and the engine thoroughly cleaned and refurbished. The 1000cc engine has been cleaned and serviced and the outer casings polished by Briteworx. An original Mikuni carburettor has been refurbished by Vapourworx. The specification also includes A. M Philpot re-ground stanchions, a cleaned Rickman frame (nickel plated), polished forks have been refurbished with new seals and the machine also wears an original 4 into 1 Rickman lightweight exhaust. Wearing new tyres and Lockheed racing brakes, the RONAL lightweight wheels have been refurbished with new bearings, new chain and sprockets. Refurbishment of the bodywork has seen painting that puts it back to the original paint scheme from the supplying dealership, Grimsby Kawasaki. The machine is described by the vendor as running and riding as it should.
