Looks like someone has built a custom, one-off version of the Vincent Black Shadow. Looks pretty, but ll I could think of was the scene in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas in which Hunter's attorney says he's riding the Mint 400 on one.

Pretty.

Heheh, reading Fear and Loathing when I was in high school was my first introduction to the Vincent.

Nice, but sadly much more eye candy than motorcycle. I'm sure it's rideable and all, but certainly not comfortable or really meant to have a lot of miles put on it.

OK, now that I could get on top of. But ... how would you dress? That would seem to be a prime consideration on a bike like that. I mean, sure, leather, but, you can't go all Harley and stuff on something like that, to my mind.

I'm thinking a black Kill Bill ensemble.
