1924 ACE Four-Cylinder Motorcycle – Rare, Restored Collectors Piece

A beautifully restored and exceedingly rare 1924 ACE Four-Cylinder motorcycle, finished in Black and Gold, powered by a 1,265cc inline four-cylinder engine paired with a manual transmission. Chain drive, single-seat configuration, odometer indicating 313 miles.



Description/Extras:

This exceptional 1924 ACE Four represents one of the most significant and desirable early American motorcycles ever produced. As the final year of production before the Ace Motor Corporation was acquired by Indian, it embodies the height of pre-war motorcycle engineering and craftsmanship.

Finished in black with elegant gold detailing and the hand-painted “ACE” logo, this example retains the authenticity and prestige that define the marque. Powered by its legendary inline four-cylinder engine, the ACE was celebrated for its smoothness, performance, and advanced engineering — a design that directly influenced the later Indian Four.

Forming part of a deceased estate, this motorcycle has been kept as a showpiece within a private collection and presents in museum-quality condition, showcasing gleaming brass highlights, polished engine cases, and meticulous detailing throughout.
