[QUOTE="vibrac, post: 17635, member: 60"] I have a Black Shadow 5” Speedo I took off a basket ‘D’ its all there including the two pilot bulb holders (with rubber wire!) and angle drive on rear. I have not tarted it up, its untouched just as I took it off. The paint is worn and the rim could do with a rechrome (new £47.00) the indicated mileage is 33,232 and I know it has been unused since 1967.I suppose that with a Speedo restorer a hundred pounds or so would make this an immaculate item. A good example of this unit went for £800 on ebay last month (item 170526444647) but we all know about some twits on ebay , realistically Dave Woods quotes them reconditioned for £495 + P&P Now I am building a 600 Egli on the same lines as the 1275cc Twin that Ben is using and I need an aluminium banana tank in excellent condition and that’s the deal. I try not to change Vincent items into money and I do not need to sell the Speedo, just a straight swap, top class Egli banana tank for a 5” Speedo [/QUOTE]
