Vincent
motorcycle kit by Keiran. Revell also, 'The Vincent',
and other than the problem of finding good representations
of it in its original state in books, before
I came wailing & gnashing into this millenium when given
this computer/
abacus, it was one of those enjoyably pedantic 'slide rule'
builds.
Where
even the wheels where 'relaced' because the spokes where
grossly out of
proportion. But it is quite satisfying once it's done. To
look at it years
later and think 'What an idiot, I should have been at the
pub!' :-).
Vincent
Motorcycles - From its creation in 1928 to its demise
thirty years later, Vincent produced motorcycles that were
among the very best. Names like Black Shadow, Rapide and Black
Lightning are bywords for good looks, good engineering and
exceptional performance.This detailed history examines the
company from its roots at the beginning of the Twentieth century
and explores the design and production of each one of the
Stevenage firm's models. Complete with detailed specifications,
archive illustrations and specially-commissioned color
photography, this book is a fitting tribute to one of
the gems of the late British Motorcycle Industry.
Vincent
1935-1955 Owner's Handbook of Maintenance & Repair
- Originally published under the title VINCENT MOTOR CYCLES:
A PRACTICAL GUIDE COVERING ALL VINCENT AND VINCENT HRD MODELS
FROM 1935 by P. Richardson, this is a faithful reproduction
of the 1955 Floyd Clymer publication of that manual. Includes
complete technical data, service and maintenance information
and comprehensive detailed instructions for the repair
and overhaul of all major and minor mechanical and electrical
components, for all models of Vincent motorcycles from 1935
through 1955, making it an invaluable resource for collectors
and restorers of these classic motorcycles. There are separate
sections that deal with the repair and overhaul procedures
for the engine, transmission, wheels and brakes, front forks,
frame and carburetor, plus a detailed electrical service section
and a comprehensive chapter on modifications for racing. Includes
a detailed index plus a 12-page appendix of complete technical
specifications and maintenance charts. This is a - must have
- reference for any Vincent enthusiast and would certainly
assist in helping any potential purchaser better understand
the inner workings prior purchasing of one of these classic
motorcycles. Out-of-print and unavailable for many years,
this book is becoming increasingly more difficult to find
on the secondary market and we are pleased to be able to offer
this reproduction as a service to all Vincent enthusiasts
worldwide.
