The Vincent Black Lightning and Black Shadow. Jesus. Talk about ahead of it's time. I considered the Royal Enfeld Interceptor here but much as I love that bike the Vincents are just all that and more for me. They speak for themselves really. Not much else to say.
And before you start beating me over the head I know they are not the same bikes and I do know the history. But in my eye they're close enough so sue me.
Maybe I should just start a code system. ASV for Vincent, ASMG(Mot Guzzi), ASD (Ducati), ASN (Norton, AST (Triumph) etc...
Although in this case it would be AS"E"V for Egli Vincent.
Riding into History Show and I had the wrong Camera... Brough Superior. Arial Square Four. Vincent. Triumph
Next few days will be some of the better posts from the local Riding Into History Motorcycle Concourse in St Augustine Florida. Sadly, I packed the wrong lower resolution camera so my pics are not as sharp as I'd usually hope for. A little post processing seems to have given them some usefulness though. Here's some of the first pics I snapped. I was an perfect day and an outstanding event.
FYI: If you want to see the whole album go to the "Links to full albums" page at the top of this blog and there are links to this album as well as most of the rest of my pics. Enjoy!
Maybe next year I should wear a BLACK T-shirt instear of yellow.. LOL
The old adage of "I know it when I see it" still applies I suppose...
I just love this tracker style on a Vincent. Really well executed. I found this bike anonymously posted on The Adventure Rider site. If anyone has any specific info on the builder it'd be much appreciated.
