I have a buddy with 6 perfect Vinnies. The '53 Comet is my favorite. What's wrong with a Comet?

You know what I don't like about Vincents?
I don't have one. :cry:
And they are probably out of my snack bracket. :cry:

It's just a not very quick 500, a Velo Clubman or Venom is a lot better.

A couple of local guys got around that problem by putting the Vincent motor in featherbed frames. But they haven't offered me a test ride so that I can compare them to my 20 years newer Bonneville. I think they call them Norvins, something like that.
