After going to the Bike show yesterday and trying on for size lots of bikes from the R1, Busa, 1299S, RSV4, and thought I would look at the Ariel Ace just as it looks very nice. I sort of fell for the Ace. I was looking for something with a fairing. Comfy but something about the Ace just does it for me. Even without the fairing. Anyone have one? I did managed to speak to a owner there who has just put his bike in for the first service. Said he loved it and nice to have something many others don't. I liked the looks of it, it felt good when sitting on it. I love that it's limited and not many with have the bike. Exclusivity of it. I'm happy it's got the 1200cc Honda engine. Can I live without a fairing. maybe. a test ride will see if it's a bike I want to spend my money on. The only thing that comes with limited and exclusive bike's is the price. Which would mean I would be selling the Blade. I shall me looking at test riding this bike as well as a few others in the Spring. Just wanted to see if anyone has one. thought on owning one.
They look awesome and superbly engineered, I'm pretty sure there's a long waiting list the new blade might be here by the time you take delivery.
Would give me time to sale the Blade But hoping to pop down as it's not far and have a look with the wife in the new year and test ride in the Spring.
Just looking http://www.arielmotor.co.uk/ace/ - like the styling. The range must be terrible with a 12 litre tank and a tuned VFR engine?! How much are they?
they do a small medium and large tank. So you can have 12, 17 or 20 ltd tank. I would go for the bigger one. Everyday bike no, but my bikes are just toys and something I enjoy so not going to be used that much. my 4 1/2 years old blade I have from New has only got 8.5k on it
