37-Years-Family-Owned 1949 Vincent Rapide

The 1949 Vincent Rapide is a historic classic motorcycle manufactured in 1949. This iconic British bike was owned by the seller's family for nearly four decades, having been acquired initially by the seller's brother in 1987 and later passing to the current owner in 2020. Finished in an elegant black with gold accents, this vintage machine is powered by a rebuilt 998cc OHV V-twin engine mated to a four-speed transmission. It boasts a distinctive girder fork design up front, equipped with a steering damper for enhanced stability during rides. The Rapide also features quadruple drum brakes and comes with a stepped two-up seat, ensuring comfort for both rider and passenger. Currently residing in the seller's possession near Day Heights, Ohio, this classic UK import represents an excellent opportunity to own a piece of motorcycle history.
