The Vincent story began with Phil Vincent's purchase of the ailing HRD company in 1928, initially producing bikes using proprietary engines in his own chassis. Always the innovator by the mid-'30s he had developed his own 500cc single and 1000cc twin-cylinder designs that survived until the company's closure in 1955. The big V-twin was the fastest motorcycle in the world at the time and with some astute marketing, Vincent became the brand everyone aspired to own. The Comet, Rapide and Black Shadow range have become some of the most desirable and iconic bikes of the era.

This authentically presented Series C Comet has been part of an enthusiast private collection for the last 8 years. Ridden by him last summer, it will need the normal checks before use but will be a good mount for days out on Vintage runs and rallies. Restored in the past to a good standard, keeping a nice degree of originality, it is fitted with an easier to use centrally placed stand that makes all the difference, the correct Smiths 120MPH speedo and a matching period Smiths clock. This very nice example of Vincent's 500 single comes supplied with a current V5C.
