This extraordinary collection of Vincent Motorcycles is the sort of thing that comes up for sale once every few decades, if you’re lucky. The 3 Vincents includes a Black Shadow, a Rapide and a Comet, all in astonishingly good original condition with none of the bikes having been restored.
The Black Shadow has only 762 miles on the clock, the Rapide has 10,633 miles and the Comet has 7,253. All 3 have matching engine and frame numbers and al look to be in great shape considering their age. The bidding is currently sitting at $120,100 USD with 19 bids and the reserve unmet.
