[QUOTE="aaronabutt, post: 13212, member: 1787"] Hello to all I have just bought a black knight that now looks like a black shadow. It is 1955 and now displays all the parts of a 55 shadow as far as my limited nowledge can tell. in any case, I want to find the easiest way of telling if the engine has been modified to shadow specs, which correct me if im wrong, is balanced crank, ported and polished heads and different carbs (jetting?) It has a big speedo though and I wonder if that's stock or if the speedo in the headlight was the stock part for that year? Aaron, new member [/QUOTE]
