1360 morning ride

worntorn · Jul 24, 2022

Made a couple of short videos. Im still pretty useless at this. For some reason these videos are blurry once downloaded to youtube. They are clear as could be when played via the device to computer. Perhaps I need to upgrade my Youtube membership to improve the video quality. its strange as the few I made with the Nortons all downloaded great. Also, apologies for the flashing speedo. That is the go procamera not liking the Digital speedo readout. it doesn't look like that in real ife. its steady as are the bar end indicators. first, the startup and ride two miles the first stop sign, nothing terribly exciting on this one.

Interesting that well built big Vincent’s don’t seem to sound that big! That sounds crisp, and if I were to guess from the sound alone I’d guess at MUCH smaller than 1360. Same applies to my 1330.

Neat video! I'd like to see the whole bike if you have a pic

This article has some photos of construction etc.

Could this Vincent 1360 Roadster be the ultimate modern Vincent?

The long and cold winters of the northern countries are certainly propitious to great bike projects; after Dag Sinclair Riise from Norway and his gorgeous Egli-Vincent Replica (1), let’s go to Cana…

I still find it a bit terrifying to ride. The sound is quite subdued thru the GoPro. When you are on the bike the sound and the acceleration are intimidating.
I'm sure that the Daytona is as fast, and it makes quite a noise too, but somehow it's not quite the same sensation.

I can see the speedo on the left well enough but I cannot read the tach on
the right at all....

worntorn · Jul 25, 2022

The tach is in the speedo at the top. The rider can read it but it's impossible to see on the video.
The speedo mode can also be changed such that it is all tach, as might be done for racing.
