The worst thing you could do is put it on a forum..anyone keen for an RH could be doing a lot of research in WA trying to locate and buy it first.. :(

And they could do some solid research on here and find out where you and I both store our bikes-but if thats the way it is, thats the way it is....there was never ment to be an RH in our shed. ;D
As you have posted before, there is always works bikes and nice priced bikes available on the market now and then........ tears they will dry. ;) ;D

I agree John....hoot and holler all you like once the bike's yours Alison but until the deal's sealed you're better keeping it all on the quiet, especially with exotica like RH Suzukis. Collectors of such stuff tend to be cashed up and sneaky, ready to cut in without any sense of fair play if that particular bike is on their want list.
-
I've had it done to me after telling someone about a bike i want to buy.. won't happen again.
-
It's happened to me as well.
-
Alison if you get the bike, I hope you and Steve post photo's and some bike history if possible. Damn Mortlocks, sold mine to someone else and I am still hurting thinking about it.

Hell I wouldn't even tell my momma if I had the sniff of an RH..... but like you say Ali the world is full of exotica for sale right now..... buy the Steiger RC replica instead...... the bikes that were $5000 are $1500

Interesting thread and just to keep you going there will be a very special Rh on Offer in a few weeks on eBay, I will be bringing back Andy Caldecotts bike and TMs to sell after the unveiling of his memorial by the community next Sunday.
When I advertise I will post a link it will be on only for 10 days, so stay in tune if you want a Rare One with one of Australia's Greatest Dakar/Safari, and Champion Classic Rider.
Rosco
P.S Dont ask me any more details or anything on the bike untill I bring it home Rosco
-
Cheers Rosco...its very nice to know that they are still out there-somewhere !!
-
Had a yarn to a few people at vmx on Sunday and worked out that Mortlocks were the main sales base back in the day and we know of 5 in WA today,what years we dont know..
I remember its been discussed on the forum about CCM bike inventories in Oz before. :P
So how many RH's in your state of Oz ??
cheers A
-
As I recall my local Suzuki dealer in Qld back in the 70s had two RHs and I have heard those bikes are still in Qld, possibly under restoration at the moment. So that would be two at least there.
-
i know off 1 in nsw the guy who raced it when it was new still has it
also 1 other
-
I've got 2 RH's and Dave Tanner has a couple also.. all on the Gold Coast.
There weren't many '74's in Qld back in the day but there were a few more '75's around, i remember seeing a brand new '75 on the floor of Mayfairs in '76 when the RM's were out.
-
I am lucky enough to have one - only one, unlike Johnnie and Dave!
I bought mine in from NZ a few years ago- to NSW.
-
When I started at Mayfairs in the warehouse in mid 76 we still had a couple in crates and there was one on the floor at the Windsor showroom as mentioned above.
There was also a 250 and a 450 AJS Stormer on the floor at Windsor or down stairs at least and I always wondered what became of them.
I reckon Bill Taylor would know-he has/had a tyre store somewhere on the northside as I remember seeing him at a car rally only 10 or so years ago.

Al check VMX i was with ray photographing the Bazza RH and Rn in the paddocks at Pukekohe raceway.
