Description

Vincent black Shadow. 1953. Had a frame swap in 1976 (Rapide frame matching numbers). Some history, Old brown logbook showing originally purchase as a Black shadow. BTH electronic magneto. Dave Hills centre stand, V2 clutch. some chrome poor, just needs a little attention. Genuine reason for sale (too many bikes) but if my other bikes sell first I shall withdraw this from sale.
This will make a fantastic bike, as for the frame no one can read the numbers at 120mph so why worry? I have not had this long hence the 'Bargain' price buy it before I sell one of my others and have room for it. I have always wanted a Shadow (who does not?), but now have too many bikes, no room to give it the attention it deserves. It is usable condition but some chrome is poor. Note: in 1976 the bike had a frame swap now has Rapide frame. If I sell my other bikes first I will withdraw this from sale as I will then have space.
