There’s a new way to get your thrills on an Aston Martin as the company has teamed up with Brough Superior to introduce their first street-legal motorcycle. Known as the AMB 002 Roadster, it follows two previous bikes that were limited to the track.
Looking like a sci-fi prop, the model is billed as a “lightweight, razor-sharp machine born for maximum enjoyment on the road.” This isn’t just marketing hyperbole as the motorcycle incorporates carbon fiber and weighs just 419 lbs (190 kg) overall.

The Aston Martin Design Studio played a hand in its creation, so the bike incorporates hints of automotive design. The most noticeable are side strakes with Aston Martin badging. They’re joined by a dual exhaust system with ribbed heat sinks, which are designed to recall the exhaust finisher treatment on the DB12 S, DBX S, and Vanquish.
Out back, there’s a ‘floating’ Aston Martin badge that is flanked by V-shaped LED light blades. The latter draw inspiration from the Vulcan, Valkyrie, and Valhalla.
Other highlights include a carbon fiber body, fenders, and fuel tank. The model also has a circular digital instrument cluster, a push-button ignition, and hand-crafted leather seat pads.
Aston Martin and Brough Superior said the AMB 002 Roadster has been “designed and engineered from scratch, without compromise or carry-over componentry.” As a result, it’s not surprising to learn the bike is powered by an all-new 1.1-liter (1083 cc) V-Twin engine that produces 130 hp (97 kW / 132 PS) and 81 lb-ft (110 Nm) of torque. The companies didn’t say how fast the model is, but noted the engine has been designed to deliver “strong low and mid-range torque with a smooth and thrilling top-end.”
More impressively, the frame is milled from a solid piece of billet titanium. This enables it to weigh just 11 lbs (5 kg). The bike also has a double-wishbone Fior fork front suspension, which “separates steering and braking forces while maintaining precise control of the front-end geometry.”
Brough Superior is currently accepting orders and the first deliveries are scheduled to begin in the third quarter of 2027. However, you’d better act fast as production is limited to 300 units.
