Vincent Black Knight

What is your favourite motorcycle of all time?

For 1955 Vincent unveiled something a little special in the form of the fully enclosed Series D range, with teh object of providing the discerning rider with a high-speed tourer; a two-wheeled Bentley as Phil Vincent put it. These machines represented a remarkable development for the time and created a sensation athe the Earls Court show that year. It has to be said though, that later, production problems arose with the mouldings eventually leading Vincent into difficulties. With their new clothes, there were new names; the Shadow became the Black Knight, and the Rapide, the Black Prince.
