Black Widow

Just received the following message:

Simon/Jon - can you please check the Works Records?

I'm amazed that this website is still going! https://www.angelfire.com/wi/VinWidow/index.html

:-D

I dont know how such incorrect information continues to be quoted everyone knows the stroke was 100mm exactly not 102

What a load of cods wollop, but because it's written "they" will believe !

 

[Simon Dinsdale]

Sorry - computer says NO.
Followed by No.

Is the Black Widow the twin version of the Grey Flush?

 

[Graham Smith]

Their reply to me…

Hello graham,
Thank you for your attention.

I asked the question why did I find this photo......

and this caption...

"Rare Original Catalog Shot of the Vincent Black Widow. Note the huge
6" "Widow Clock" a 220 mph (350kph) that is one of the rarest parts
of the machines......"
And to know the truth, there is nothing like asking the members of this distinct group, who are the ones who really know the story.

And again, thank you so much for your help !!!

Hey

I have the original grey flush. Like my B Shadow replica, another sheep in wolf's clothing!

Bit late for April's fool's.

The grey Comet has been known as the grey flush for probably something like 30 or 40 years! Long before I bought it.
