Vincent Weathervane

I'm building a new garage for bikes and other items and thought it'd be nice to have a weathervane on top. The club Spares company lists a weathervane but says it's out of stock. So in poking around on the Internet, I found this:


The link says "Ariel" but no, it's a Vincent.

It's made by a company owned by a certain Graham Smith. I assume not the one we all know. It's expensive but seems to be well made. What's really odd (but attractive to me) is that this particular one is of an open D, which suits me. It's also strange that the image is flipped, with exhaust on the left. I don't know what the other side looks like.

Has anyone here seen these?

I questioned them earlier regarding the image from the other side. No reply yet, but it's only been one day.

It's a bit expensive but that Rollie Free one blows that price out of the water. $2,600.00 for an equivalent size!

The extra cash must go to a charity;)

I bought a fence topper from Aerostich many years ago and a friend mounted it on a swivel and I have a home made one right outside the living room window!
