1947 Vincent Rapide Series B

The vintage vehicle in focus is a 1947 Vincent Rapide Series B motorcycle, manufactured in the United Kingdom and now residing in Dallas, Texas. This iconic British machine is a gem from the 1940s era, boasting a timeless design with a distinctive black finish accented by gold details and polished fenders. Underneath its classic exterior lies a powerful heart: a 998cc Overhead Valve (OHV) V-twin engine, mated to a four-speed transmission. Having changed hands in 2015, this Rapide has been meticulously cared for and recently recommissioned by the selling dealer in 2022. With its rich history and undeniable style, it's no wonder that bidders have reached $57,888 for this classic piece of British motoring history on Bring a Trailer.
