About Ace Classics

I'm Alan Howlett, proprietor of Ace Classics and I have spent a large portion of my life in the restoration of beautiful Motorcycles and Automobiles.

These days however, I limit myself to Classic British Motorcycles.

I have a few bikes of my own and mostly ride my faithful 1971 Norton Commando Roadster. I believe the ownership of a Classic Motorcycle is something special and not for everyone. A Classic British Motorcycle will always stir the soul and provide that escape from the everyday world that we live in. The shared understanding of those who ride a Classic must be experienced to be understood. I understand that not all of us have the time or experience needed to build or maintain their own Classic and I would love to work with you to help realise the dream.
