This Black Shadow is on loan to The Throttlestop from a local motorcycle enthusiast
It is a true barn find survivor wearing its original patina
Black Shadows began as a tuned version of the Raptide and contain many of the best features of the series A, B, and C lines such as a cantilever rear suspension, quick detachable wheels, and Vincent's own Girdraulic front fork.
The V Twin unit construction engine forms an integral part of the chassis and is suspended from a spine frame that doubles as an oil tank
At 100 mph in top gear (4th) the engine runs at just 4,000 rpm
The 150 mph speedometer emphasizes that the Vincent was the world's fastest production motorcycle
