Vincent Black Shadow bike
The Vincent Black Shadow bike is a type of bike used by many human forces, Imperial and otherwise.[1]
Description
The Black Shadow is used by Imperial forces from the Adeptus Astartes to the Astra Militarum and the Adeptus Arbites. It is also used by the private armies of Imperial Commanders and Rogue Traders and even by planetary police, pirate raiders,[1] and mercenaries.[2]
The Black Shadow can be equipped with a side car mounting a heavy weapon, usually a multi melta with a targeter, while the bike itself mounts two forward firing, auto-aiming boltguns,[1] or a single heavy bolter.[2] The Black Shadow also features an auto-drive system, allowing the bike to continue fighting even if its crew has been killed.[1] The Black Shadow also has huge, armour-plated road wheels and a communicator.[2]
