[QUOTE="Simon Dinsdale, post: 117399, member: 58"] Bill is correct. Bonhams got the engine number wrong and then corrected it on a salesroom notice at the bottom of the description. I can confirm the bike sold by Bonhams in that auction lot was engine 1621. Why they called it a Black Shadow Egli project I don't know as the engine is from a Rapide. The only slight connection is a previous owner has painted the engine black. EV13AL is the Egli engine number given/ added to this engine by Fritz Egli when he built the engine into one of his frames in the late 1960's and is completely seperate to the Vincent engine number.
