Aston Martin's First Street-Legal Motorcycle Packs 130 HP and a Titanium Frame
After two track-only superbikes, the Aston Martin–Brough Superior partnership delivers its first road-legal machine: a 419-pound, titanium-framed V-twin limited to 300 units.
Aston Martin's winged badge is headed for public roads on two wheels. The automaker and Brough Superior have revealed the AMB 002 Roadster, the first street-legal motorcycle from their partnership, limited to 300 hand-built units with deliveries set to begin in the third quarter of 2027.
Power comes from a new 1,083cc water-cooled V-twin making 130 hp and 81 lb-ft (110 Nm) of torque, tuned for low- and mid-range punch rather than peak numbers. The engine is machined and assembled at Brough Superior's headquarters in Toulouse, France, and serves as a stressed member of the chassis, bolting to a billet titanium spine frame that weighs just 11 pounds (5 kg).
The whole bike comes in at 419 pounds (190 kg) with 50:50 weight distribution, helped by carbon-fiber body panels and a carbon fuel tank. Up front is Brough Superior's double-wishbone "Fior fork," which separates steering and braking forces and resists diving under hard braking — an evolution of the setup used on the track-only AMB 001 Pro.
The design comes from Aston Martin's studio, and the car references are deliberate. The brand's signature side strake pierces the fairing and wraps around the headlight, the rear light blades are the same type fitted to the Vulcan, Valkyrie, and Valhalla hypercars, and the finned heat sinks on the stacked oval exhausts echo interior trim from the Vanquish, DB12 S, and DBX S. Keyless operation, a backlit ignition button, and hand-stitched leather seat pads round out the road-car touches.
The partnership's first two bikes never saw a license plate. The AMB 001, unveiled in 2019, was a 100-unit track machine with a turbocharged 997cc V-twin making 180 hp, priced around $120,000. The AMB 001 Pro followed in 2022 with 225 hp and an 88-unit run, carrying a $187,625 MSRP in the US, where just 25 examples were allocated.
Against those, 130 hp reads modest, but the AMB 002 isn't a detuned track bike. Aston Martin says it was developed from scratch with no carryover components, built for road manners instead of lap times — and homologation is the entire point of the exercise.
Neither company has announced pricing yet. Given where the track bikes landed, a six-figure sticker is all but certain. Order books are open now through the two brands ahead of first deliveries in late 2027.
