Aston Martin’s motorcycle partnership with Brough Superior has taken a more usable turn.
The AMB 002 Roadster is the latest two-wheeled machine from the two brands, and unlike the AMB 001 and AMB 001 Pro before it, this one has been created for the road.
It still looks every inch the exotic Aston-adjacent object, but the shift in purpose gives it a different kind of appeal.
At a glance
- Aston Martin and Brough Superior have revealed the AMB 002 Roadster, a new road-focused motorcycle limited to 300 examples.
- The bike uses sculpted carbon fibre bodywork and an all-new 1,083cc water-cooled V-twin producing 128 hp.
- Orders are open now, with deliveries scheduled to begin in the third quarter of 2027.
A road-going shift for the Aston Martin motorcycle project
The AMB 001 and AMB 001 Pro established the partnership as a maker of rare, track-only motorcycles with a strong design link to Aston Martin’s supercar language.
The AMB 002 Roadster changes the brief without abandoning the drama.
It’s described as an entirely new machine, with a compact silhouette and bodywork shaped around the rider rather than simply draped over the mechanical package.
That makes the motorcycle interesting beyond its badge value, because it signals a move from collectible circuit toy to something intended for actual road use.
Carbon-fibre bodywork with Aston Martin cues
The AMB 002 leans heavily on sculpted carbon fibre, using a smooth fuel tank and flowing side fairings to create a tightly integrated profile.
Crescent-shaped openings cut into the bodywork are there to help cool the engine and manage airflow, but they also add a sharp visual rhythm to the otherwise fluid form.
Aston Martin’s side strake has been reinterpreted within the fairing, giving the bike a detail that feels more considered than a simple logo placement.
At the rear, the lighting draws from the Aston Martin Vulcan, Valkyrie and Valhalla, while the twin oval exhaust outlets feature ribbed heat sinks influenced by the Vanquish, DB12 S and DBX S.
It’s a useful reminder that the most convincing brand collaborations work best when the references are embedded in the object, not pasted onto it.
A new V-twin at the centre
Power comes from an all-new 1,083cc water-cooled V-twin engine.
Output is rated at 128 hp and 81 lb ft of torque, which places the AMB 002 firmly in the performance motorcycle conversation while keeping the mechanical identity distinct from Aston Martin’s cars.
The pairing of a traditional V-twin layout with a highly sculpted carbon-fibre exterior is part of the bike’s tension.
It isn’t trying to become a two-wheeled supercar, but it clearly borrows the theatre, surfacing and detail obsession that define Aston Martin’s most extreme models.

Limited production and collector appeal
Only 300 examples of the AMB 002 Roadster will be individually hand-built.
That number gives the motorcycle obvious appeal for Aston Martin collectors, but the more intriguing audience may be riders who want something rarer and more design-led than a conventional performance bike.
With deliveries planned for the third quarter of 2027, the AMB 002 Roadster won’t be an immediate arrival.
For those who have followed Aston Martin and Brough Superior’s earlier track machines, though, this feels like the moment the project becomes more tangible.
