Ha, the "Vincent owners club" propaganda piece:) All warmed up and ready to restart:) I once read the reason Vincent owners never let anyone else ride their bikes. It's because if they did word would get out about how average they really are. Sworn to uphold the "secret pledge" according to the author. CiaoYep I have read the same thing before, many interesting engineering ideas but not executed all that well.
Not sure if I should say anything as you guys might pick on me but I've had my 47 Rapide since 1975 in that time have never had the heads off and it gets used every month and as far as starting goes I think a two year old could start it, Lucky Phil got it fairly right they are just another selection of nuts and bolts assembled in a tidy fashion, I keep my self distanced from the Vincent fraternity as not all but a lot of them are just so full of themselves but the bikes are a nice bit of engineering and they thought outside of the box when building them. Mines a keeper

I've never had much of a yen for a Vincent, although I know a few people who own at least one. If I had the budget for something of that era, I'd prefer a Norton ES2 or International.Or a Brough Superior.
