Early 70s guy named Clymer(Clymer manuals) bought surplus 750cc Royal Enfield engines when RE went bust,he intended building his own named bikes but he died after only a few were built and the Rickman brothers bought the remaining engines and stuck them in their nickel plated frames (Mettise?)most were orange and they looked great but were bit pricey.Rickman made frames/body kits for most makes of bikes in 70s but not sure if they actually marketed complete bikes.You could buy a nice Rickman 810cc Honda four Kawasaki 900/1000 etc. All with the nickel plated frame or just the body kit.
