Some purists would claim that is sacriledge, but I think it looks good. Pretty engines those Vincents.

I would have preferred the exhaust to be metallic, though. Wonder what it sounds like.

Thats absolutely fantastic, what an achievement.....

I'm jealous I can't attain that level of skill and I hope those guys who built it stub their toes...........

In some hands the Vinnie could have been sacrilige, but this is a thing of beauty. Even a classic can be bought up to date if it's done sympathetically. :) :) :)
