Aston Martin and Brough Superior revealed the AMB
001, a new track-only limited edition motorcycle that made its debut at the
Milan Motorcycle Show.
The new superbike will be limited to just 100
examples offering a blend of Aston Martin design and the state-of-the-art
engineering of Brough Superior “for the motorbike connoisseur”, according to
the official press release.
Finished in Aston’s racing colors of Stirling Green
and Lime Essence on matt black wheels, forks and brake assemblies, the new AMB
001 utilizes a carbon fiber body and is powered by a turbocharged 180 HP V-twin
engine. Dry weight is just 180 kg.
The strong sculptural form of the new superbike is
accented by a carbon fiber fin, which is similarly designed with the side
strake of Aston Martin cars, running along the full length of the fuel tank
before passing under the saddle and out onto the rear.
The new AMB 001 will be built and hand-assembled at
Brough Superior’s factory in Toulouse, France. Each one of the 100 planned
examples will be offered with a price tag of 108,000 euros (US$ 120k in
current exchange rates), with first deliveries to begin from late 2020.
