I just found a post where someone Karma'd one of these back in 2017......so guess this is a bit on the expensive end!

I think oooh expensive, then I think its new and 32 years old. Where would you get one? Tricky decision, you could make an offer? Edit just seen the damage on the top tube

just seen the damage on the top tube

That'll be the word Ridgeback




Might be worth it if it came with the Switchblade... and probably why it was stripped along with the XT



Had a later 705RS - hated it

Yes, sorry decal not top tube

@Guinessisgoodforyou No, I meant the damage was done when it was decided to put a Ridgeback decal on it

@Guinessisgoodforyou Ignore @Markybeau's uncaring and heartless attitude toward Ridgebacks. Fortunately, the 705RS mentioned above was saved and now has a loving forever home in the southlands, where it frolics through the countryside with spritely joie de vivre as nature intended.

I've seen that seller come up a few times, always high (the price that is).
