A Vincent Black Shadow.


My first Street Bike . I bought it as a basket case for $100.00 had a bent frame and broken front end. A year later and $200.00 she looked like new.. Wish I had her now...
A Vincent Black Shadow. 



 1000cc, it has the a wonderful V twin engine, so much chrome, it is a work of art. It it is an Iconic bike, very fast, very smooth. Its engine was used by various people in other frames, a NorVin for example. A Vincent engine in the McCandless brothers superb Norton featherbed frame A Vincent Black Lightning was the fastest production bike in the world from 1955 until 1973. 181.19 mph was the Guinness world record speed.
