Hiya kids
Being the kind & generous fella I am, I got these off the bay for a pal in the states. They duly arrived & I sent him some pics & he decided they were shite & doesn't want em........
They were horribly painted blue, I thought they were a pile of crap & back on the bay it was for em. Talking to uncle Clint who suggested that they may, possibly, could, might be some sort of prototype & not somebody's metalwork project. I stripped the paint ( blue, met purple & white powder ) & the forks are very well made with really distinctive drops, ok I'll agree the standers are a bit heath robinson BUT could they be a prototype kind of thing ?????
Thinking caps on fellas & what do we reckon ??

Still Reckon they are Rickman, Rich. The motorcycle style drops and brazing is the firm link for me  :daumenhoch:

chubby:
I'll find them links you sent & whack em up bud

chubby:
Here we go. The drops really are like miniature Rickman motorcycle ones
