[QUOTE="danno, post: 169247, member: 1372"] Relatively new to Vincents. I'm a BMW airhead/oilhead owner and enthusiast. Inherited the Rapide in 2003. Dad sadly no longer with us but he bought the bike in 1962. Since owning the bike, I've patiently worked on it and got in running after ten years standing. I've just today, taken off the Craven rear carrier contraption and it now looks like a different bike. Much more sleak. Looking to fit some discreet indicators now as the old ones were mounted on the rack. The steering damper is original and dad did once mention 'tank slapper'. Not sure though about fitting the hydraulic type. [/QUOTE]
