Still the most reliable bike I've ever owned was my Velocette Venom Clubman Raced at the weekend and work in the week the worst Vincent 1000. Handled like a pig always stopping miles from anywhere. My Ariel has let me down a couple of tomes clutch centre nut came undone going to work in London repaired at the side of the road ( Embankment) and once oil pump filled the crankcase as the return failed not bad for over fifty years of ownership I did like the Hinkly Triumphs me and Maz had fool selling them ..
