Floyd Emde Suzuki T500 Metisses
H2Rick found a rare pic of a Rickman Metisse Suzuki 500 raced by Floyd Emde...
From
the April '68 issue of Cycle World on pages 66 and 67 comes an article
titled "Daytona:The Men and Machines for 1968".....with a quick mention
as follows.....
"Floyd Emde has entered his 500-cc
Suzuki-Metisse, which rider Johnny Apple took to second place in its
race debut at Carlsbad, Calif. The machine uses Suzuki's two-stroke
twin-cylinder engine in one of the Rickman brothers' Metisse frames,
complete with fiberglass tank and seat."
