This beautiful piece of engineering is in virtually mint condition. The bike was first registered June 1952 and has only had 4 owners from new prior to me. I bought the bike 10 years ago and have only done 10 miles onit because I find it too small for me., so I have reluctantly decided to sell it. The bike was restored by the third owner in 2001, this included an engine rebuild / overhaul, new Amal concentric carbs, new wheel rims with new stainless spokes and new tyres and other refurbishment work. The bike has only covered 82 miles since. Excellent paintwork, beautiful chrome and lovely polished alloy. The bike starts easily and runs and rides as it should. The bike has the added bonus of a hand operated centre stand for ease of lifting. Everything on the bike works as it should and you would have trouble finding a nicer one. I have a case full of receipts and paperwork with the bike including the original Vincent riders handbook and maintenance and repair manuals. Happy to arrange shipping at cost, Please check out the photos, Paintwork unmarked, saddle as new , lovely pinstriping in rims etc etc
