Description/extras: This exceptional 1924 ACE Four is one of the rarest and most desirable early American motorcycles ever produced. Representing the final year of production by the Ace Motor Corporation before it was acquired by Indian, this model embodies the pinnacle of pre-war American engineering — a true icon of motorcycle history.
Description
Beautifully finished in black with gold detailing and the distinctive hand-painted “ACE” logo and retaining the authenticity and elegance that make Ace motorcycles so admired by collectors worldwide.
Powered by its renowned inline four-cylinder engine, the Ace was considered revolutionary in its day — smooth, powerful, and far ahead of its time. Its performance and engineering excellence helped shape the future of luxury motorcycles, leading directly to the later Indian Four models.
This particular example forms part of a deceased estate and has been kept as a showpiece within a private collection. It presents in museum-quality condition, with gleaming brass highlights, polished engine cases, and pristine detailing throughout.
