Title: Rickman Tempest Fairing
Post by: johnnyboy-wonder57 on July 25, 2012, 11:11:48 AM
Hi,
I have a Rickman Tempest fairing, single headlight, shark-nosed, I was going to fit it to a Z650, but now it may go on my Norton build, its pretty big, so I presume I can adapt it, however I have no fitments for it, in the shape of head-stock bracket, steady stays, bottom- brace brackets e.t.c

Anyone know of anyone supplying Rickman fittings?

Also, someone knew of a bulk supplier of Phospheric acid,( No, your Honour, I didn't order it to make a bomb, during the Olympics)!  I just want to treat some motorcycle parts to a rub down and some restorative care.
If I do not post again, you know that I have been carted off by the "Net Police"!

Make the best of the weather, we are having this week....be careful what you write on Facebook, THEY'RE trawling the Net for would be Anarchists!


Take Care


Cheers


JBW

Funny!
But, not that useful to me Bomber, I am not cleaning up old pennies, wish I was, they may be valuable now!
Incidentally, have you put a magnet to your shrapnel lately, the new "Copper" coins stick to it, so I separate the old    pre-ferrous  ones out to keep  for when the World has a copper shortage!
I read somewhere, that one Hedge fund manager & his cronies own 2/3 of the World's Copper reserves, Globalisation eh!  It only works for the Greedy & not for the Needy!

Cheers

John
