Triumph Other description

This circa 1971 Rickmann Metisse was completely disassembled and rebuilt from the ground up.  The 500cc Triumph twin engine was done by the late Jim Strohmeier and chassis work by Matt Hilgenberg of Speed & Sport. Frame was nickle plated, rims powdercoated and laced with SS spokes/nipples, new wheel bearings, replated hardware, seat cover, fork seals, tires & tubes.  All chromed parts rechromed; all alloy polished. I built the wiring harness to incorporate head and tail lights and horn.  Electrics controlled by a Mity-Max regulator/rectifier/battery eliminator.  Beautiful, lightweight, powerful example of a classic Rickman Metisse. Located in Rhode Island, whose DMV does not issue a Title for machines over 10 years old.
