San Diego Comic-Con reveals ‘Breakout’
for ‘Captain America: The Winter Soldier’
MARVEL Studio’s Steve Rogers,
a.k.a. Captain America, will ride
a Harley-Davidson Softail in the
new movie ‘Captain America:
The Winter Soldier’.
In the upcoming film, Steve
Rogers’ character will be riding
Harley-Davidson’s newest
Softail, the Breakout, which was
launched globally in March.
“Captain America and HarleyDavidson have had a long and
glorious association dating back
to the introduction of the
character in 1939,” said Dino
Bernacchi, H-D Marketing
Communication Director. “He’s

ridden different Harleys
throughout the history of the
character.
“Captain America makes the
perfect marketing partner for
Harley-Davidson as he truly
embodies the iconic, heroic, and
American aspects of our brand,”
said Bernacchi. “Both Captain
America and our motorcycles
are great symbols of freedom.”

Krazy Horse create Ace
1200 CR Street Special
KRAZY Horse, the Suffolk, UK-based
custom shop and regular World
Championship competitor, is
collaborating with Ace Cafe London’s
Stonebridge Motor Company, to build
11 hand-made cafe racer bikes to
celebrate 110 years of HarleyDavidson (one for each decade) and
75 years of Ace Cafe London.
Krazy Horse has developed the
Limited Edition Ace 1200 CR Street
Special in close association with Ace
Cafe London’s Stonebridge Motor
Company (StoMoCo). The bike is
based around a 1,200cc V-twin engine
from H-D, which is mounted in a
Norton ‘featherbed’ style wide-line
frame built especially for the project.
Fully detailed with high gloss black
powder coated cylinder heads, primary
cover, cut down timing case and an
Ace Cafe Racer points cover, the
engine breathes through an S&S Cycle

Super E carburetor, and exits gases via
a polished stainless-steel, handmade
exhaust system.
A six-plate clutch ensures power is
transferred to the five-speed gearbox;
and stainless steel wheel spokes,
polished aluminum hubs and specialist
tires guarantee the bike’s handling.
Commenting on the creation of the
limited edition machine, Krazy Horse
owner and MD Paul Beamish said:
“This is the ultimate tribute to Harley
– the art of custom at its ultimate best.
The new Ace 1200CR Street Special
will be for petrol-heads everywhere
who want to own something that is
contemporary with a seriously vintage
theme. But there will only be a very
limited number made – so people will
have to be quick to get one.
“The bike is light, nimble and fast
making it a true cafe racer. People who
ride these bikes will know the true

feeling of freedom, power, torque and
sheer excitement. It will combine
classic styling with unfettered
engineering excellence.”
“This new bike will most definitely
be a collector’s item, but it will be at
its very best when it’s on the road,
doing what It does best,“ says Mark
Wilsmore, MD of Ace Cafe London.
“Built in England and powered by
America, its timeless lines and raw
power combines with effortless
handling and exhilarating
performance.
“Combining the very best of the US
and Britain, we are delighted to be
able to bring you a ton-up legend,
celebrating Harley-Davidson and Ace
Cafe London, bringing you a beautiful
new ride – the Ace Cafe Racer.”
This bike is the fourth to come from
the Ace Cafe, London, Stonebridge
Motor Company stable. Previous

models include the Cafe Racer Classic
(Little Miss Dynamite), the Ace 904S
Thruxton Special and the Ace 675CR
Street Triple Special.
