This 2020 AMB 001 is a track-only collaboration between Aston Martin and Brough Superior and is the first motorcycle to wear Aston Martin wings. It is one of 100 examples produced for the model year and was purchased new by the seller. The bike is powered by a turbocharged 997cc 88-degree V-twin mated to a six-speed transmission and features carbon-fiber bodywork finished in Stirling Green and exposed gloss with Lime Essence accents as well as a hand-stitched black leather solo saddle, an aerodynamic front wing, a carbon-fiber handlebar, rear-set foot controls, LED lighting, and a two-into-one Inconel exhaust system. The billet backbone frame, Fior-type fork, rear swingarm, and 17″ wheels come from CNC-machined aluminum, and additional equipment includes triple disc brakes, front and rear monoshocks, and progressive rear suspension linkage. This AMB 001 is now offered in New Jersey for display or off-road use only with manufacturer’s literature, a rear paddock stand, a smartphone, and a bill of sale.

Considering we have never had an Aston Martin/Brough Superior on the site, we had to post this.
Only a few hours left before the auction ends. Based on what I read in the comments, I’m guessing the seller wants to break $100k.
NCR600TT commented, “I found online information on two of these at recent auction.
The first #63 in Belgium did not meet reserve.
But #94 did sell in England for 99,950 GBP ($135,882).
That bike being the only one in red I’ve seen.
Price new in the US, these were $121,000.
The current AMB 01 PRO model is listed at $183,895, but with extras bring the price up to $195,000. Only 88 are slated for production. Not only do you get a power bump to 225bhp, but a crazier paint scheme to boot.
If Aston Martin survives is questionable. With 2025 losses of GBP 495,000,000, and debt of GBP 1.38 Billion. I doubt it. I could have told them this would happen, when they changed to being a luxury lifestyle brand, instead of an automobile manufacturer.
These seem to hold their value. If they are an appreciating asset remains to be seen.”
As always, good luck to the buyer and seller!
also straight from BaT comments, ” Iconic Moto serviced one in 2025 and discussed the maintenance schedule where after about 20 hours of use, it’s recommended to change the pistons, head gasket, and transmission.”
so, basically it sounds like these are not for riding, just eye candy. i will never understand the point of making them in the first place.
With all the money spent, they could have built something that was easily rideable. I would prefer, if it were on display to look at, that you could see it all. The GSXR750 when it first arrived was advertised without tank and bodywork. It was excellent marketing.
@Mike – Good point. I’m assuming whoever purchases this will move it from one living room to another.
Good grief, this has less to do with motorcycling than ‘investing’. Looks like some sort of modern take on the Suzuki Nuda, or whatever that thing was called.
My back hurts just looking at this monstrosity! Sorry…not for me! Too many of “today’s motorcycles” look like insects on wheels…or “Transformers”!
I’m of the old school of motorcycle design. Bikes with sweeping/curvaceous lines.
Rolling works of art. Bikes that Da Vinci might have designed.
Imagine Sophia Loren…Elizabeth Taylor…Raquel Welch…and such striking women as motorcycles! Those ladies body curves…those curves, used in motorcycle design…are what I’m talking about!
A very good example of a frame and engine wrapped in artfully designed bodywork would be a 1990’s era Triumph’s Daytona Super III or any of the Daytona series they produced in the 1990’s era. Honda’s CBR/F “Hurricanes” from the late 1980’s to the late 1990’s another. Almost any Old School Ducati comes to mind. But not limited to just those.
BTW…a beautiful 1996 Triumph Daytona Super III is currently being offered on the “Iconic Motorbikes Auction Site”…a great example of those “curves” I’m talking about!
Are the stanchions and velvet ropes shown in the photo included with the sale?
I bet it looked better on paper.
Why 88 degree on the v angle”? Because 90 simplifies and perfects most verything else, choosing to take away 2 degrees solved what problem? I’m missing something…
@jonathan – LMAO
