Vincent Black Shadow auction / advice needed

[roy the mechanic]

Tomas, there is usually a reason for a machine like this to appear in a "low key" auction. It usually means BE VERY CAREFUL! Take time, a good one is waiting for you. Be lucky Roy.

Thank you for your message Roy,just now I am starting to realize that,there is no information what so ever,even when I have called them they could not answer my questions...just told me what it has all correct paperwork and few other bits no option to get in touch with the owner either...

Given that the rear tip of the chain guard seems to be protruding too far to the rear, I would assume that the front mounting is incorrect in some way.

It's a Series C chain guard on a B RFM so will never fit without using a hacksaw and welder.

This reminds me of some lash-ups from 30 years ago when people were trying to make some money from junk. Just what is that stuff under the tank?? As everyone here is saying STAY AWAY!

Compared to the incomplete pile of Black Prince parts that sold at Bonhams in June for £123,000.00 I think the Shadow is a bargain.
