Sorry, no it’s not. The only thing in common between this and the real thing is the colour. I would love a ‘Vinny’ engine just sitting on a table in the middle of the room because the Vincent engine is the most aestetically pleasing motors ever built, a beatiful, balanced design. The Honda engine, no matter how efficient and functional would look better in the dark! (I do think Honda have built some nice looking mills) Even Triumph made a better fist of it with details like the ‘timing cover’ giving a nod towards its heritage.
Norvin/Vinton, Egli, Courage, would all turn my head, this just turns my stomach.No more than an excersise in ‘badging up’ not a re-birth. Ford did it with Jaguar, the ‘S’ type, a Mondeo with a body kit!

Even if it wasnt so jacked up at the back the emissions reg exhausts need binning and the whole engine frame area is not ‘clean’. Compare it to the norton in the previous article whic is very right.

Only one year old! Feels like an old friend already :) ))))
