Aston Martin and Brough Superior Reveal the Exclusive AMB 002 Roadster
Aston Martin and Brough Superior are proud to announce the AMB 002 Roadster: The first road bike produced in the ongoing collaboration between the two iconic and historic British performance brands, it follows the sensational track-only AMB 001 and AMB 001 Pro superbikes introduced in 2019 and 2022.
The AMB 002 Roadster is an all-new machine. One which continues Aston Martin and Brough Superior’s radical exploration of motorcycle design and engineering in the form of a lightweight, razor-sharp machine born for maximum enjoyment on the road.
An expression of the pure, pared back essence of a rider-focussed sports bike, the AMB 002 uses fluid lines, compact proportion and precisely sculpted carbon fibre body elements to create a form packed with drama and dynamic tension. Emphasising its unique forward-biased kinetic style while giving glimpses of the motorcycle’s mechanical beauty, the AMB 002 is an unmistakable product of the Aston Martin and Brough Superior collaboration.
The work of the Aston Martin Design Studio is evident in every curve and detail of the AMB 002. The relationship between form and function are perfectly expressed in the pebble smooth shape of the carbon fibre fuel tank and side fairings, which rise to meet the rider when tucked out of the slipstream. Crescent-shaped gills slice into the flanks to aid engine cooling and streamline the airflow, while wire-design stalks for the low-slung mirrors embody the AMB 002’s lightweight construction.
Details with a more direct four-wheeled influence are also found in abundance. The iconic side-strake has been reimagined, piercing through the side fairing and extending forwards to encapsulate the headlamp. Twin oval exhausts feature ribbed heat sinks which echo the exhaust finisher design of Vanquish, DB12 S and DBX S. A dramatic array of rear light blades are the same type as those seen on the tails of the Aston Martin Vulcan, Valkyrie and Valhalla hypercars, while keyless function, a backlit ignition button and hand-crafted saddle leather seat pads bring touches of luxury and craftsmanship found in Aston Martin’s series production road cars.
Exceptional design, materials, manufacturing and craftsmanship are what defines all Aston Martin and Brough Superior motorcycles. Achieving such high standards is incompatible with mass production, which is why like its track-only predecessors, the AMB 002 production will be limited to just 300 individually built motorcycles.
