Why…on God's green Earth would you do that to a Vincent? Sorry, but I just don't get it.

Never heard of a Vincent before this thread so I googled them. Yeah, I'd have to say that's quite a drastic mod.
Looks like the exhaust would blow up your ***. Hey, you could add that Corbin seat that's been the subject of that other thread and it'd be quite a ride.

I love the brakes. I would like to see that catch on and become an affordable mod.

i've seen those before on other bikes. can't help but wonder if they would cause wobble slowing down from 65 to a stop.

Could have just been a motor laying around that he built a bike around.

Always wanted a Vincent until the truly big inch Harley motors started showing up in the 80's.Still a good looking machine in stock form and even Matt's creation.
