Description

Rickman Metisse Steve McQueen 650cc Desert Race Replica. In mint condition, this is a newly built machine from the ground up. Built to a very high standard, everything on the bike is either brand new or restored original parts.

The T120V Bonneville engine has been fully stripped and rebuilt from the bottom up with all new parts, It sounds fantastic as can be heard in the video. It will need a running period. The frame is a brand new Mark 3 Wasp sold by Rickman with a frame number so can be road registered. Racing ignition has also been fitted.

Starts easily and rides as good as it looks. An awesome looking and sounding machine thats ready to ride or show!

Very iconic machine made famous by the association to the legend Steve McQueen

Lightweight, nickel-plated oil-in-frame chassis made of Reynolds 531 chrome-moly tubing

Vintage 35mm Ceriani or Marzocchi front forks paired with twin rear shock absorbers
