  1965 Rickman Triumph Metisse 500 Street Licensed Scrambler
  Engine No: TT06-H66734, Frame No: B-1101065, Odometer: n/a. Condition: Excellent. Documents: Purchase Invoice
• Notes:
  British brothers Don & Derek Rickman were motocross champions and innovators. Their excellent-handling Metisse frames outshone the factory efforts and were made for a wide variety of four-stroke singles and twins. In 1964 they entered into an agreement with Bultaco. The Spanish company would supply two-stroke engines for the Rickmans to install in their own frames for U.K. sale, and Rickman allowed Bultaco to build licensed versions of the frames. This bike is one of the rare 1965 Spanish Metisse models, originally powered by a 250cc Bultaco single, but expertly retrofitted after 1969 with a 500cc Triumph twin that looks perfectly at home in the so-called Petite Metisse chassis. In 2006, the engine was overhauled and had a cosmetic touch-up. It rolls on Dunlop trials tires and was last run 3 years ago.
