ACM Motorcycles

Alain Cordier Mécanique, rue Ste Cécile, Marseille.

Alain Cordier built a number of specials in Marseille, beginning in 1981. The most famous of these are based on the CBX Honda six-cylinder machines. He used the best components available at the time - Brembo brakes, Marzocchi forks, Campagnolo wheels and the like.

It is not clear how many were built in total, but a forum post suggests that there were ten after two years of production.

There are reports of the ACM CBX in Moto Journal n°527. 1981, and in Moto Journal n°621 1983.
