view THE RAZ REPORT view the update viewing allll the pictures more "Vindian" pictures (11)... click here still more "Vindian" pictures (6)... click here In 1947 Vincent wanted to improve its position in the market place and so they began working with Indian to produce a Vincent powered Indian which would be marketed throughout the United States through the Indian dealerships - basically a motorcycle comprised of an Indian frame and tin and a Vincent power plant.
