Sure he had a black fightered Ace on one of the wales ride outs about 3 years ago. Will have to go piccy hunting.

Ok main site page, in Out to Play look at worrying the sheep tour from 2006. Click on look at all pics, and in photo gallery 2, left hand column 3rd from bottom looks like a black fightered Ace to me.

I painted the red/white Ace Black with red trim - Sold it to KK, who then painted it black with ASDA green highlights
He sold it to another guy on eVILbay, and bought the blue/black ace that he did our 1000 mile jaunt on
The tail unit on the original Ace, was just the standard unit - It's a bit wide, but then again, so's my arse!
Exup/V-Boost? Tomato/Tomato? Same meat - Different gravy
All the same innit? It's still a yam

Fightering any bike is up to you, as only you can decide on what you want it to look like,
Most common things are, remove the fairings, change top yoke and fit rethal bars, headlights and digital clocks,
Our kid had a ace, which he sold before I had the chance to fighter it, can't remember what forks it had, but I was change then for the gold USD's I have,
Have a look at the other site I'm on,

I'm just getting over those tits, but now they're back. Very distracting they are!
Bit of advice. Buy a good bed and a good pair of shoes, because if you aren't in one you'll be in the other.
