Ariel Motor Company has unveiled the 'Ace', the first new motorcycle from Ariel for over 50 years.

The new bike will be made in low volume by Ariel at their factory with roughly 100 – 150 motorcycles built per annum alongside the Atom sports car.

The Ace is powered by the 1237cc V4 engine from the Honda VFR1200, making 173hp at 10,000rpm and 131Nm of torque at 8,750rpm.

Each motorcycle can be tailored and fitted to individual customer choice, 'From low riding cruiser, through street and naked machines, to supersport bikes the Ace will be built to owners' specific requirements and desires.'

Variants of front and rear suspension, different seat heights and tank sizes, handlebars, wheels, exhausts, bodywork and more will form an extensive list so that each Ace can be different.

Prices for the Ace aim to start at £20,000.
