Aston Martin motorbike anyone ?

130bhp !
My 2007 Fireblade boots out 170. That cost me lots less and dare I say, looks alot better !!

They won't get much road action I suspect, more likely a garage Queen for the vast majority of its life. It certainly won't be beating me on the mighty Honda CB500X over Wrynose Pass and Hardknott Pass =))
 
130bhp is not that good , my 1300 Pan European was 125bhp
and a lot more comfortable. =))

If Lawrence of Arabia had not died on a Brough, they would be seen for what they are! Brough Superior is just the name of what amounts to a special, made up of other manufacturer's bits and pieces, such as Castle forks, JAP or Matchless engines etc . . .

If Aston Martin survive the winter, and even produce one or two it will be a miracle. Anyway. all this thing represents is a lifestyle symbol for super-rich poseurs who will never ride it, and use it as an appreciating asset - give me my 46 year-old BMW twin any day!
