Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
Ridley Motorcycles?!?!??!
I have someone wanting to trade. They have a 2004 Ridley autoglide, that has 4500 miles and is 750 CC. I don't know anything about them.
Anyone on here know some info? TFOG? Thanks

Not familiar with them, but looks like snowmobile/atv transmission (CVT). Depending on engine tuning, it could be interesting. No idea what it might be worth, as they were very low production numbers. Probably now going to blow the skirt up on anyone who's ridden a modern bike performance wise.

Discussion is an exchange of intelligence. Argument is an exchange of
ignorance. Ever found a liberal that you can have a discussion with?
If it's not something YOU want and drool over (much less aren't familiar with), don't do a trade. You have no idea what a fair exchange value is and even if you got a helluva bargain ("my dryer lint for your motorcycle"), what happens if you decide you hate it in 2 months?
All I got from Tfog’s post was “good luck finding parts should you need them”.
I tend to steer clear of anything with wheels that’s sort of an odd duck. Parts and maintenance items can be hard to find or expensive.
Yeah, a lot of the "customs" I see end up getting bodged together with all kinds of weird stuff, because the vendor that made the original parts for the boutique bike builder went tits up.Originally Posted by ray1970

Get it cheap, hang onto it for a couple of years and then take to the Mecum auctions. Someone with too much money will over pay for it and you can retire a rich man.

If you gonna get a bike, get a Harley. Ridley website seems a bit hodgepodge.

If memory serves. They were a small bike powered by a B&S Vtwin. Had a CVT transmission. Sorta reminded me of a Cushman, if they sold a cruiser. The website is a mess. I'd pass unless you love odd stuff.
Cute little mini-motorcycles, they were made in OKC. AFAIK, the company doesn't exist anymore.
