Aston Martin x Brough Superior AMB 001

[@cpuuk]

Dang, that is pretty. 100% impractical, it's made for a glass case.

[@johnnygeorgopoulos4072]

Says you, if I owned it, I'd be riding it, hard

[@Bobby-lh2sx]

If it runs I will daily it.

[@mrdouglasbaker]

Still worth it

[@EddieTheH]

Genuine question, not trolling, but what part of that do you find pretty? Personally, I don't think I've ever seen a bike I find less aesthetically pleasing.

[@thomaschristopherwhite9043]

It's a motorcycle. Practical is a Van.

[@IamPinhead]

A beautiful work of art with all the durability of frosting.

[@majkimajk6185]

- Oil and filter every 5h - clutch thickness, timing chain and valve clearance every 10h - pistons, head gasket and gearbox every 20h. - u use ur smartphone as a display And in the end, after a short drive, it had already started to fall apart 11:10 , what a joke 🤣

[@johnwirk]

Definately a POS. I'll stick with my $2800 suzuki that has 47,000 miles with zero issues for now.

[@Helicopterpilot16]

Aston Martin went full "sucker born every minute" with this one.

I think the cell phone thing is a cool gimmick. Saves to company from replacing faulty dash displays. You would think it would at least have a shift light.

[@18000rpm]

And less HP than a stock Hayabusa LMFAO

[@YogiMoto108]

A ten year old GSXR750 may not look as pretty but at least it’s usable, durable and not fragile. It would be very interesting to see how this thing stacks up against a bargain bike on the track.

[@purebloodheretic4682]

🎯💯 Gixxers are a true No Gimmicks riders bike! I've owned a couple Srads & have the original 1985 GSX-r750 & '86 GSX-r1100 Slabbies - I need to get a Modernish '08-2012 GSX-r750 that would do me - I don't want Traction Control or Fly by Wire crap - Cheers 👌🇦🇺

[@DafergoEngineering]

i'm pretty sure people who can afford the AMB001 also have a few gsxr's in the garage

[@EddieTheH]

In my opinion, a ten year old GSXR750 is *_waaaaaaaaay_* prettier than this. A ten year old gixxer that's been crashed and set on fire is better looking than this thing.

[@camerancole8433]

that's not really the point, it's more to do with the fact Aston Martin was involved, therefore "Aston Martin made a bike". looks pretty pretty. but i'm a sucker for green

[@teaguejelinek4038]

Not really a fair comparison. Gsxrs are ridden into the ground, while this thing maybe will be ridden a handful of times by its owner. Two machines meant for different purposes.

[@Veryperceptivecat]

FINALLY a review of this beast. So far there's only been one video out of Japan - and there you can clearly see it's not happy, most probably due to the ethanol issue. Sounds incredible, probably the most beautiful bike I've seen. Also, the collaboration between Brough and Aston seems genuine here and not just a marketing gimmick. Love it, top job guys!

[@IconicMotorbikes]

Thanks for the watching and for the comment! Wish we could have had more riding footage with it but obviously considering the maintenance schedule we want to keep it as fresh as possible for the owner.

[@ApeRSV4]

Beast? Hardly. More like a dog.

[@EddieTheH]

Interesting that so many think it's beautiful. IMO it's one of the ugliest bikes ever built.

We appreciate you having an open mind! I wouldn't say it's the bike for me (if I could afford it) but I always love sharing cool/different stuff that comes through our shop.

[@ElSc0rch10]

What a great video - thanks for sharing. Given that they estimate that only 5 of these will ever be ridden, this is pretty special!

[@herbieschwartz9246]

True beauty follows engineering, not vice versa. That bike is truly beautiful.

[@drakedoggy103]

the engineering cant be that good if the maintaince intervals are that quick... The output is also nothing to right home about. But the design is nice .

[@KG-byson]

thats industrial design

[@ritochit]

Gorgeous bike! the ignition switch is definitely an afterthought though.....

[@ncjsgrki]

I'm sure the service manual is referring to hours of track use, so if you use the bike in the streets is not that serious. The H2R is the same way, Kawasaki recommends rebuilding the engine every 20 hour of use, but I put over 10k street miles on mine and never had any problems.

[@allrad4911]

Isn't the H2R not street legal? Or are you implying that you ride it on the streets anyways because no cop could catch you lul

[@franktaylor7617]

Honda RC 30 was similar. Owners manual had similar recommendations and set-ups.

[@madbull4666]

Exactly, to anyone that hasn't done a full track day or raced cars/bikes before, 20h is actually quite a long time to be pinning the throttle wide open. A lot of cars would recommend similar times

[@lorencelaflair4306]

Lol you have the H2, not an H2r

[@franktaylor7617]

Back in the day. I had a RC30. The owners manual was similar. Had set-up sections for sprint and endurance racing. If I remember correctly. Engine rebuild was at 10k miles or two endurance races of a certain length. Or once a season for sprint racing. I can't remember exactly, but it was interesting it had a racing maintenance schedule. I think the valve check was twice as long as a full rebuild 😏 I think the clutch pack was only rated at 1k. It was a long time ago, hard to remember. This seems like an incredible waste of money. Of course this is what poor people say. Probably the same thing someone in a third world country would say about me spending $1500 on a one owner 90 GSX-R 1100 when I already have several bikes. I think I'd rather have a Britten for a one off track bike.

[@correzzana1992]

A friend of mine was given a Breitling watch when he got his wings as a fighter pilot. It lives in a drawer at home. He wears a Casio. This mototorbike is the Breitling. The Honda CBR 1000 is the Casio.

[@timothylindsay3244]

This bike is for rich people who don’t ride. Perfect melding of design, engineering and performance….Ducati, and much less expensive

[@medler2110]

Just because they don't turn up at your local track day it doesn't mean they don't ride them, the people who buy these bikes can afford to rent the track.

this is for people that have more money than they know what to do with. The KTM 1290 superduke is just as powerful if not more and possibly lighter for a fraction of the money. People that buy this bike just showcase it in their living rooms as an art piece. It's a beautiful bike though for sure.

[@kellygrant4964]

And I thought my ZX14 7500 mile spark plug interval was a bit much. Of course these types of machines aren't for the regular working joe. They are for the multimillionaires. It is great to see these type of works of art. Pushing the industry forward.

[@stunter2875]

Curious about why it's got wet tires on? Can anyone explain. Guess I should have waited till the video was over considering he just talked about them. I would guess they weren't being used and better to keep the slicks in new sticky condition and wets for getting service

Fior fork system was tried on 500cc GP racer many years ago. That was the era when engineers were trying to make motorcycles as stiff as possible.

[@loonaticsrunningtheassylum]

The front was built like that so the front doesn't "dive" under braking. Extremely capable from what I've read. Never heard anyone say it was for stiffness.

[@GordonMoat]

That era was about stiffness, particularly stiff frames. You can see it watching old footage how the bikes were very unforgiving. Front end experiments were also about stiffness, along with other characteristics, such as control under braking. Im just talking about that era.@@loonaticsrunningtheassylum

I almost bought one of these. It’s beautiful, but now that I have learned of the service intervals, I’m glad I didn’t buy it. Also, I learned that the power unit is turbo charged, so there is an undesirable turbo lag. Don’t know how much of that is true.

[@user-qv5lr1sy9o]

From engine to chassis this bike disappoints me. An emissions compliant KTM 1290 V2 which is based on a 20 (!!!) year old design will deliver the same power figures (180hp and 130NM, 110 NM already at 3000 RPM) as this bespoke Brough (not) Superior Turbo in race spec. In the RR Version, the Super Duke, a fully street legal motorcycle is even lighter than the AMB 001(Also 180kg but with fluids) What is the point of creating something new and special if it performs worse than what has been available for (comparably) cheap in large quantities on the market for years? There was a time when the extensive craftmanship, the complicated engineering and exotic materials resulted in a lighter, faster and overall better motorcycle. Bimota beating the Big Four, Britten defying the Ducati V-Twins... I want that but it doesn't happen. Instead there are business men who buy up old brands and sell "art" to a few rich guys..
