Here's the sales flyer for the ill-fated Australian Vincent resurrection, the RTV. Rather than re-write the story here take a look at Philippe Guyony's Egli Vincent site.
An attractive enough bike but not massively dissimilar from other v twin muscle bikes of the time. With hindsight a retro might have gone down better, even in 1998. After all Godet's replica Egli Vincents were steady sellers. And for Pete's sake, why was the catalogue bike in red rather than black and gold!
