They did not ask whether they should, only whether they could.

Mr. P.
The Rickman 750 looks like the same motorcycle I saw at the Vintage Japanese Motorcycle Club Notional Rally last year. Beautiful specimen.

See 5th picture:

Heh, heh ... pretty cool.

Its a 4 cylinder ATC. Its not cool its unavoidably fatal. That bike has probably killed more people that than the son of sam.

Nah, it's a CB350F motor, gutless as heck, slower than the 350 twins, but heavier too. You'd have to spin it up to 10k to pop the clutch, but probably won't wheelie anyway.

Yeah, wasn't care'in 'bout the wheels, ... just the implementation of the lump.


That said however, so the name of the ATC is, um, ... "Christine Jr."?

I couldnt read the name on the gas tank exactly. Christine sounds about right though. Those little 3 wheelers were a disaster. Add a whole lot of extra weight from the 350 cylinder to land on top of you when it inevitably flips and youve got a death trap.
