Hmm. Each to his (her?) own taste, but me no like.The CBX is a fantastic engine, but I'm doubtful of the ability of the Rickman frame to control it.I once saw a "replica" RC166 which used a CBX engine, the whole thing was scaled up in size to accommodate the larger engine, but the forks were still 35mm and it had a drum brake....I can only assume it was intended to be a static display item. At the same event, there was a herd of tweaked CBX's from a French club who were circulating round Spa at a very high rate of knots. Bloody things came past me on the long straight doing at least 100 km/h more than I was, with the most unearthly scream. Most impressive, these blokes knew how to ride.
