Seller Description
Vincent Black Shadow Tribute (XV100RH)
Well here we have something pretty special, the bike was developed by Bill Ross and Engineered by Bryce Black, some of you may have heard of them.
It has been produced from a 1981 XV1000 RH (or TR1 in Europe). These bikes are sometimes referred to as the Japanese Vincent, when Yamaha designed them I understand they had a Vincent dismantled on the bench (that bike still exists and belongs to a friends friend in Japan), the similarities are striking when, for example, you look at the blue prints of the Vincent swing arm arrangement .
This bike has been re manufactured from absolute ground zero, every nut, bolt, washer, diaphragm etc. has been renewed, the engine, gearbox, clutch, carbs, front end etc. re built.
The head joint and starter system on the XV's were imperfect, Bryce has re engineered both to a happier place.
The XV 1000 was voted the bike of the year in 1981 due to it's all round capabilities, this one rides nice, it has more grunt than a swamp full of pigs and a good turn of top end power, it handles and stops well.
It has traveled approximately 2500 KL since finished, It is registered in Qld expiring on the 29th May 2019, a road worthy will be available if sold in Queensland.
The bike is in excellent condition cosmetically, you will have to look hard to find an imperfection, I think the photographs fall slightly short of representing the bike properly, in other words it looks a bit better in the flesh than my camera can account for.
I am selling the bike for Bill, it is located in Eudlo Sunshine Coast Hinterland, inspections very welcome, call Bill on 0438 154 144 for further information or to arrange inspection.
