I live near ROUTE 66 RIDLEY, in Carthage, Missouri and stopped by there today on the way in to work to visit a while:smile:
Ridley, the manufacturer was under funded and went out of business years ago but there are still some independent dealers around to service customers parts and service needs.:grin:
At one time, their yearly sales out paced VICTORY.
If you are interested, either Google them or read about them on Wikipedia:smile_big:
The later models used their proprietary 750cc, single crank, balanced, 90 degree, air and oil cooled V-twin engine, powering the belt final drive through a belt driven CVT auto-trans, with top quality components and nice, quality paint. Most had the typical size front and rear tires but one model came front and rear with 'CAR' tires and it looked cool so I thought I'd post a few pictures:
Me so solly must hold head sideways! My bad:surprise:
