1980 Kawasaki Rickman CR
No sooner does the RSBFS staff find what we believe is a rare bike, when another staff member finds vitually the same bike available only a short time later. Such is the feast or famine environment of rare, collectable sportbikes. Take this Rickman-framed Kawasaki 1000, for example. It was only last week that Ian posted a similar Rickman Kawasaki HERE.

The winning bid for the last Rickman Kawasaki CR was $7,801 in a no-reserve auction. This bike should bring similar money (if not higher), although the auction at the time of this writing is much lower. The current bid is at $2,550, and there is a reserve in place. If you missed the last one, here is your chance to own a peice of Rickman Competition Replica history – chrome-moly tubing and all! .
