When ACE folded Richard sold the stock to Superbike who had knocked them out adinfinitum yet only a few remain and only one it seems that we know of

. If any ever sees one please let me know

Is that the place Paul uses Andy? If so, well worth the wait as their work is awesome

Love this thread - Phil did exactly the same to my brother's white 600a you saw him building up last year at MK and you'd never know, the work is so good

58 delray · « **Reply #48 on:** June 16, 2011, 02:55 PM »

some also ended up in a shop in SE london when ACE folded but can't for the life of me remember it's name, but they were advertised in a mag at the time and my dad took me over and bought my one for £35
