You say it is registered as a Rickman, but is it titled as a Rickman? If so, it might be considered "Production", but only if 500 or more Rickmans were produced available to the public. The SCTA rulebook doesn't say that "500 or more" of any specific model must have been produced, so if Rickman sold 500 or more bikes available to the public, it would be worth sending the question to SCTA technical people. After all, I'm not sure Vincent made 500 Black Lightnings, but I would think they are considered to be a qualified Production model. Also, Matchless made models with Rotax motors in the later years, and Indian sold models with Royal Enfield motors (I don't know if these variants are considered Production either).
