Lot 96
A 1974 Triumph T150 V Rickman Metisse cafe racer, registration number WMM 51M, frame number TBA, engine number T150V KJ05971, blue/ chrome. This beautifully built Rickman Metisse has been in the vendor's possession since 1979. Exquisitely built with a legendary Rickman Metisse nickel chrome 531 tube frame, incorporating Marzocchi front forks with Brembo twin front disc brakes, Pat French disc brake swing arm conversion and Hagon rear shocks. The petrol tank is an aluminium item and there is a bikini fairing fitted with twin head lamps. Power is supplied by a T150 V-triple fitted with an 850cc kit, gas flowed cylinder heads, standard camshaft, Norman Hyde primary drive and hydraulic clutch. The vendor has enjoyed this exhilarating cafe racer including trips to the Isle of Man TT twice and winning the Sammy Miller best engineered bike amongst other trophies. Now only for sale due to the vendor's ill health, it will be sadly missed. V5C, MOT to June 2018 See illustrations
