1951 Vincent Black Shadow

There has been more stories, folklore, and exaggerations said about the legendary Black Shadow than nearly any other motorcycle. The design was radical, and performance was even more so, and the only modern machine to compare it with would be the Britten. The ability to cruise at three figure speeds and with a maximum often exceeding 125 mph put this motorcycle far ahead of anything else available at the time.
