[QUOTE="kerry, post: 112328, member: 3981"] I have just bought an open D shadow and have had 7 Vincents over recent years, apart from the seat I think with both carbs on the same side etc to me it looks better balanced and superb, I have fitted the latest AVO units front and back , the ride in my opinion is far ahead of the series C, and (with the lower avo) I can sit with both feet flat on the floor and I am only 5'7" ! ,also with coil ignition it starts easier. I had considered the one in Wales which probably is a good one to ride but not as an investment I feel. The centre stand is brilliant of course although so are the Dave Hills ones on a C. Just need some nice weather to ride my D a bit more. Bearing in mind dropping prices, and remember there was 168 bikes in the H&H 2 Nov sale with 100 unsold I feel its worth around £30,000 [/QUOTE]
