Done an mot on this today(and it passed)
Stunning 
Tell us a bit more about it, we even have a Classic section on here now 
Cant tell you much apart from its a 1951Vincent and a guy called up and booked it in. Only me and Gary
test the bikes here and i thought there might be a fight NOT to do it,untill it turned up.
Nice bike and old fella who owned it.
Just wish all bikes were so clean and interesting.
love the block of wood under stand
go on who was nervous about its lean angle … yourselves or the owner …
it is a lovely one …
Wow, so clean!
That is a sweet bike, my first thought was Blackshadow, probably wrong.
The lack of a black engine is a give away that it isn’t a Black Shadow I’d have thought?
No idea what it is either mind … apart from pretty 
Comet,i think
Not to mention its missing a cylinder :D:D. Yeah, looks like a Comet
