Nice looking bike Pete. A good base project to start from. I don't think the front mudguard is a Rickman item as they didn't have all the bracing, they are attached to the forks using jubilee clips on mine, there are no mechanical fixing points on the Betor forks.
Same bar end mirror as mine!
Don't forget to make a weekly appointment with a chiropractor when you get it on the road 😉.
Cheers for the info. Im so looking forward to the achin wrists and back lol
Will do thanks

Cant see a photo dave.
You made me think when you mentioned adjuster. Mines hasnt got any, in fact my swing arm has no allowance for them. It must be tensioned some other way? I've got a few old photos of it back in the 80s 90s ill check to see what it ran

Afternoon all,
Ive recently obtained the above rickman based on a cb750.
It has been dormant for a lot of years and im just trying to do some home work before things get replaced etc.
It has a z650 front end and brakes on it. I was told this was because they were a better upgrade. Anyone else have any info o this please. Ive got to replace or refurb the fork tubes and one caliper as beyond repair but just wanted to make sure i was going in right direction before i start
Thanks
Pete
