History: Purchased new by Per-Erik “Ecke” Eriksson in 1980, he was the sole owner and it is now being sold after his passing. Ecke was a man of many talents who loved speed, setting the unofficial time record between Säter and Östersund, among other things. The bike has been ridden both on the track and on the road. In the early 1980s, another engine was purchased, originally from Kjell Watz. The engine was tuned by Thomas Klarkner and was then installed in a Rickman-Kawasaki called “Viggen.” A report was made about that engine, which is included in the image material. This is the engine that is installed today.

Other: Comes with a large number of parts, including the original engine in parts, original fork, racing fairing, seat, brakes, and much more. Basically, everything is included to get it approved for road use.

Condition: Good restoration project, the vehicle has not been started and has been standing for a long time. There is age-related wear and tear, but it has been stored in a warm and well-maintained environment.
