    Just seems odd that a cafe, albeit one as famous as the Ace would somehow be directly involved in the designing & building of a limited edition iconic motorcycle.

    The term "cafe racer" merely refers to a style of motorcycle that was used for fast rides from one café or coffee bar to another & i would imagine that the Ace Cafe, probably being the best known cafe, frequented by rockers in the motorcycle scene back in the day has merely had its name associated with the build & its logo air brushed to the side panels & fuel tank.

    Just my thoughts.....
