1973 Rickman Zundapp 125 sold for $2,250 at the 2017 Mecum Las Vegas Motorcycle Auction
that's identical to mine except it has black cylinder. they chose a 10X12 number plate. I have decided to make my own square assed number plate cut out from a transparent dark blue clip board. it will also be square but 10X8. I cut several sizes of ovals as a test to see how they looked on the bike then suddenly realized 10X8 square look nearly perfect with the pointy Rickman fender. the bike in your pic has the correct front fender but I got the earlier pointy assed front fender and it affects the way the front number plate looks dramatically. I sent Airtech and email the other day and they did not reply. doesn't matter now.

ReplyDeleteLooking forward to the pics when you get that number plate fabricated. Should look really nice.
