Vincent Black Lightning

Fantastic song,grand singer,wonderful music... thanks for posting...  Oh yeah,the Vincent... make mine with an Egli chassis...

those are REAL Vincents you show for the first 2 minutes....all the bike pix after that are modern imposters.

I'll take a Vincent Black Lightning...oops, I can't afford it. Okay, a Black shadow...can't afford that either. Okay, then...how about a Norton...lemme check me pocketbook...nope...can't afford it.

Well.....um...1966 Triumph and no fairing..brushed aluminum tank?
Chrome headlamp?

Okay...I'll take it....let's ride.

bought my first husband a '68 Triumph. it was a basket. he worked on it in my kitchen for the better part of that winter. come spring, i was never more proud to be seen on the back of a bike...that was in 1982...RIP TLM

Yep...that was back when bikes were bikes. I lot of good projects get started in the kitchen or living-room. To me, those old motor bikes, the ones with soul, are sorta old bi-planes and steam locomotives and sailing ships...by that I mean they are more than just transportation.

Good that you got to ride with him...I am sorry that he died. Perhaps he rides still. Listen closely some night and you may hear him....he's the sound of a motor-bike starting up in the distance. Take care.

Wonderful video, thanks John for letting me know about it!!
Nice country-music!

Vincent replicas are being made in Australia under the name Irving Vincent,
these high quality machines are a true replica of the HRD, its fitting that they are made in Australia as the original HRD engine designer Was Phil Irving he was an Australian and believe his wife is still in Melbourne

Richaed Thompson just came to CHico. He is really inteligent! His music reflects that

Im guessing this is Chris Thompson

If you mean Richard Thompson, yes.
