   When you’re working with, or on, a low production volume motorcycle, made at a time when it was a tool not an object of art, finding reliable, accurate technical information can be difficult. Records weren’t kept in the 40′s and 50′s with an eye to the future restorers so many details have been lost or damaged. It took someone like J.P. Bickerstaff (a highly qualified engineer by profession) who knows and loves the motorcycle, to ferret out the details of these machines from such sources as still remain. I have at least six other books on Vincents and consider the Original Vincent Motorcycle to be the absolute best source for restoring, or for verifying details of one you might consider for purchase.

   not many “marques” stir the the blood of both the dedicated enthusiast,and the casual motorcycle fan like VINCENT. if a picture is worth a thousand words, then the text of jackie bickerstaff is well matched to the excellent photographs of these wonderful machines, done by asisstant mann.it is not easy to write about the many technical differances from one model to another,without loosing the reader’s attention:but she did it!!! highlight of the book realy is the picture of the author next to her vincent
