Aston Martin AMB 002 Becomes the Brand’s First Road-Legal Motorcycle

Aston Martin and Brough Superior have moved their motorcycle collaboration onto public roads with the AMB 002 Roadster, the first street-legal bike produced under the partnership. Previous AMB 001 and AMB 001 Pro machines were track-only, so the new model changes the proposition from a collector's engineering object into something an owner can actually use beyond a closed circuit.

Production is capped at 300 hand-built motorcycles

Aston Martin says the AMB 002 will be strictly limited to 300 examples, with initial orders already being taken and first deliveries scheduled from the third quarter of 2027. The quantity is large enough to establish the model as a genuine series within the partnership while remaining small compared with mainstream superbike production.

Brough Superior supplies the specialist motorcycle engineering

The new roadster develops the chassis ideas used on the AMB 001 Pro, including a Fior front-suspension system designed to reduce dive under braking and support precise steering. That division of labour is central to the project: Aston Martin contributes its design language while Brough Superior brings the engineering and hand-built motorcycle expertise needed to make the machine credible on the road.

Road legality changes the ownership experience

A track-only motorcycle may be technically extraordinary but requires transport, circuit access and planning every time it is used. Registering the AMB 002 for the road gives owners the possibility of riding from home, hotel or yacht-side garage to a destination, which makes the object easier to integrate into an existing collection of cars and leisure equipment.

The partnership is becoming a product family

The AMB 002 follows two earlier limited-run projects and signals that Aston Martin's brand diversification is moving beyond isolated collaborations. For collectors, the attraction will depend not only on rarity but on whether the partnership continues to create motorcycles with a recognisable engineering identity rather than simply adding an automotive badge to someone else's machine.
