As two historic British performance brands, Aston Martin and Brough Superior make a great deal of sense as collaborators. Already, the pair has teamed up on two insane, track-only bikes, the AMB 001 and AMB 001 Pro.
Now, the two legendary marques are furthering their collaboration with the reveal of their first road-legal bike, the AMB 002 Roadster.
Created as a lightweight, razor-sharp machine built for maximum enjoyment on the road, it’s the latest evolution in the two brands’ “radical exploration of motorcycle design and engineering”.
The work of the Aston Martin Design Studio is clear to see in the carbon fibre bodywork of the AMB 002, with the aggressive, forward design intended to offer glimpses of the mechanical componentry.
A clear link is drawn between Aston Martin’s road cars and this new road bike, including its iconic side-strake which has been reimagined, piercing through the side fairing and extending forwards to encapsulate the headlamp.
Twin oval exhausts feature ribbed heat sinks – something which echoes the pipes of the Vanquish, DB12 S and DBX S.
The dramatic array of rear light blades are the same as those seen on the tails of Aston’s flagship hypercars, the Vulcan, Valkyrie, and Valhalla hypercars.
Of course, the bike embodies luxury touches from Aston Martin’s cars, including keyless function, a backlit ignition button, and hand-crafted saddle leather seat pads.
At the heart of the AMB 002 Roadster, inside its titanium frame, you’ll find an all-new 1083cc four-stroke, water-cooled V-Twin engine developing 97kW (130bhp) and 110Nm of torque.
Tuned for strong low and mid-range torque with a smooth but thrilling top-end, it’s intended to deliver a responsive, engaging character with accessible performance, making it tailored for maximum enjoyment in a road environment.
The AMB 002 is designed, machined, and assembled at Brough Superior’s headquarters in Toulouse, France, utilising aerospace grade processes and materials, right down to the CNC-machined billed engine cases, which are optimised for weight reduction and structural efficiency.
Even the frame is machined from solid billet titanium, meaning it weighs a mere 5kg, helping it achieve perfect 50:50 weight distribution.
The bike also utilises Brough Superior’s own double-wishbone ‘Fior fork’ front suspension, which separates steering and braking forces while maintaining precise control of the front-end geometry, unlike telescopic forks.
The order books are now open for the AMB 002 Roadster, with this bike strictly limited to 300 units like its two track-only predecessors. Initial deliveries are slated for Q2 2027.
