"Harley Riders Dream".... I love it! 🤣👏👏👏👏 Awesome awesome collection! 🥰🥰🥰

[@jammaster7614]

Those Vincents really are the most beautiful bikes ever made.

[@thra5herxb12s]

Beautiful collection indeed. I am fortunate enough to live near to Conway Motors, the Vincent specialists in the UK. They are happy to work on my Ariel engines for me and they take the same care as they would the Vincents.

[@MrBazH]

Brilliant. This important collection is unlikely to be surpassed. It deserves a proper length in-depth documentary to do it justice and for posterity.

Worth more than 10 million now, he has a ex racer black lightning also, been up there for a look. He started buying them up in the 80s , would love to know what prices he was paying, nice bloke, that's all he does most days is show people around his stunning collection

[@Vintagewheelz]

Wow ! Just amazed looking at his collection and the smile on his face shows how much he is found of them. No money can substantiate the happiness of possessing those beauties .. 👍 respect from India ! 👍

[@derekstocker6661]

Wonderful collection put together by a real lover of Vincent motorcycles, thanks for sharing this and long may the collection keep together and possibly grow, if that's possible, as there seems to be about everything here right here!

[@frankmarkovcijr5459]

In the 1960's Vincent were $500 bikes. Then the money people spoiled it for bikers who wanted to ride them and not for investment purposes.

[@tigdurrant8939]

Indeed but the funny thing is all these guys pushed the prices up to silly levels …. Prices are now dropping so fast as the age of owners means they can no longer ride (Covid didn’t help of course). I would love a Knight or Prince but they will sit in owners garages till as they wont sell for what they will soon be worth. Not much 😇

[@frankmarkovcijr5459]

@@tigdurrant8939 when the price of a Vincent becomes the same as the price of a new Harley-Davidson people will buy them from their previous owners to take a very big monetary loss. Just because people jack up the price of something to an unattainable level does it mean that it's going to stay there forever. There comes a point when people will not pay Philly money for something. They are a good motorcycle but they are overhyped. Brand new they were the price of an Indian 80 cubic inches chief

Harley Riders Dream!!!!! Wow !!!! I’ve have to see this someday!!!!! I have no words!!!!!!

[@453421abcdefg12345]

Good on yer mate! A fantastic collection, live long and enjoy, you have the right attitude!

[@colb9916]

Realy sad thing is Very few people have any idea that in a little fishing town in West Australia, a couple hundred kilometres north of the city, is this unbelievable collection. I drive past every time i head to Perth on the recently finalized Indian Ocean Drive and often wonder why there isn't a sign on the main road to let folks know its there. It deserves to be seen.

[@fredtracy1673]

I hope your collection is safe from the fires in Australia!

[@Nogitaman]

Thanks for sharing - always! Great to see your face again. Fond regards from Japan.

[@johnkeen6714]

Talking of Tom McQuade. He went over the lights on his sidecar at Claremont. He was the best by the length of the Claremont back straight. He learnt to master sidecars in the dried up clay holes while travelling around the country shearing.

[@moosey62]

Bloody hell.. Outstanding!

[@anythingoldmechanical]

It needs a LIGHT man riding it.

[@frankmlchaelglasscock6539]

One lucky man and good luck to him I would love to go there one day

[@txbatfan6647]

amazing collection!

[@sonnyf1213]

very cool

[@jammycalapini8588]

The saddest part in life is. When you have all your precious bikes. You earned them. By a very hardwork on each bikes you waste youre sweat and energy every second just for to bought a bike for the happiness of you.. But then you realize that youre now An old man. That anytime you will leave the world and you will never see the favourite and precious bikes that youve been earned for a long long time... :(

[@Vintagewheelz]

👍 well said buddy, that's what all the vintage lovers feel all the time .

[@kriswright1022]

Jammy Calapini If heaven don’t have my favorite bike ( 73 Triumph T140 ), I don’t want to go!

[@TheAntipedy]

The claremont speedway Vincent sidecar that is up there was not built by Tom Mc Quade. It was built by and owned and raced by Harry Taylor at Claremont with passenger Alby Hutts and sold to Mc Quade many years later.

[@randhalljoss6762]

GREAT RESPECT TO YOU BRO

[@twinphill900]

What a top bloke 👍

[@kurtjens]

Is his collection open to the public?

[@fredtracy1673]

Apparently so!

[@briancritchley5295]

There is a BSA Rocket 3 in the collection in s pale green, is this stock ?

[@TheMickvee]

Yes. It was an export only colour, available during the first year of production. I have a book from 1971 with a photo of a brand new Rocket 3 in this vivid green colour. It looks stunning!

[@jiggermast]

I wonder if he'll adopt me?

[@servicarrider]

How and the hell does a mud bug fisherman come up with this kind of scratch?

[@frackjags]

Lots of money in crayfish (Lobster) here.

[@servicarrider]

Two entirely different animals. Crawfish are freshwater crustaceans while lobsters are marine crustaceans. Crawfish belong to the super family of Parastacoidea and Astacoidea while lobsters belong to the family to Nephropidae or Homaridae.

[@johnniethepom7545]

Where better to put cash ! Easily stored and liquidated for a quick couple of hundred thousand .

[@ROHAN-vk6xq]

A fisherman man has 46 Vincent motorcycles . Hmmmmmmmmmm

[@flower2289]

My thought too.

[@davelloyd-wide1556]

A wonderful collection but, there are people out there that would love to ride them. Sell them and them on the road where they belong.

[@DavidKing-jx3sg]

They are all registered and all run

[@scheusselmensch5713]

Greedy bar steward LOL!

[@1silvervespa]

Should reproduce them.. .....

[@johnniethepom7545]

There's a Company in France that do , they aren't cheap though .

[@fasteddy546]

No wonder u can't find a Vincent, greed pure greed!

[@gregorytimmons4777]

You could take the view that he is saving them from a worse fate. I would say that resisting the temptation to sell them off constitutes the opposite of greed but then i don't begrudge someone capable for amassing a collection of the objects of their passion.

[@fasteddy546]

@@gregorytimmons4777 I wonder what you collect?

[@eddybetanya]

I collect Aprilia's, I have one, clever blurt.
