They are lighter than even a stripped down Commando, and go where you point them.


Despite what a certain regular poster here says, they have neutral handling and a bit of flex.  They also seem to work regardless of engine type installed.


FEs is a MK2 replica, I have ridden a Caffrey framed 750 long stroke MkIV.  i'm not sure they differ by much when it counts, but I have noted that original Seeley MkIII frames had a tendency to crack around the rear engine plate mountings.  I'm convinced that Seeleys steer better than my Rickman, making the Seeley best when you want to change your line mid-corner because someone else is where you want to be.


The Rickman really comes into its own on long fast sweeping, and empty, bends.  Bends of a type that don't generally feature in tight little French tracks!


Oh Well!
