39-Years-Owned 1952 Vincent Rapide Series C
This timeless classic is a 60-year-old British superbike, specifically a vintage 1952 Vincent Rapide Series C. It's been loyally owned by the same person for nearly four decades, showcasing its durability and appeal over time. As an iconic example of mid-20th-century motorcycle engineering, it retains its distinctive parallelogram frame and 499cc V-twin engine, originally designed by Philip Vogt and inspired by those used in aircraft. Despite its age, this Ohio-based bike maintains a robust presence as a testament to Vincent's legendary craftsmanship and design innovation, still coveted among collectors stateside or abroad.
