BTW, why are they called Ace bars? Ace Cafe? Just a thought...

And CR stands for Cafe Racer... damn, you're quick, Pashster. :lol: :lol: :lol:

It's become a big cultural (a.k.a. marketing) schtick in the US now.

Sounds like we need a Buell get together - on our other bikes. There's a few tasty 80's beasts lurking in garages!

I had Ace bars on my FS1 E as well and i put a set on a Z1300 quacker.
I used to think they where called ACe because if you continue the bars till they meet they form an A they i thought ACE as in excelllent, the best as in fighter ace, ace high etc.
If I go the top yoke of a Firebolt i will have to move the clocks, lightes etc. forwards.
I guess i will have to make a pair.

Wouldn't Jota bars be a better alternative?
