1953 Vincent Rapide Used 999L

Seller Description

Howdy, Up for auction is a 1953 Vincent Rapide Series C. Its in good original running condition. I bought it over 20 years ago. The last owner had it just as long. I only rode it to shows or breakfast once in a while. It has 441 kilometers on it. I put less than 100 of them on it. The last owner collected antique British bikes. I bought all his bikes back then. I stopped riding motorcycles about 7 years ago. I am selling my few favorites that I have left. I have done very little to it since I owned it. Other than basic maintenance. Shortly after I purchased it, I had the magneto rebuilt with new magnets and windings. This made it start a lot easier. I started it up when I took the photos for this auction. It fired on the second kick. It has not been rode in 7 years. Its stored in my heated car garage. I have a few oil filters for it. Other than that, what you see is what you get. Its located near Buffalo NY. Zip code 14080.
