Brough Superior

The sale of the core exhibits of the National Motorcycle Museum was a chance to pick up a bargain, with many historically important bikes going cheap. Warning: if you appreciate historical gravitas, this overview may be deeply distressing.

A thousand lifetimes ago, at EICMA 2019, Aston Martin and Brough Superior teamed up on an eye-popping AMB 001 turbo sportsbike. In the post-apocalyptic wasteland of 2022, this sliver of unobtanium gets a souped-up 225-horsepower Pro stablemate.

Each January the Las Vegas motorcycle auctions set the tone for the entire auction year. This year there was only one – Mecum – but it will be the biggest and most important motorcycle auction of 2022, with the most evident trends. Here's what we learned.

Actor Steve McQueen may have died 40 years ago, but his brand value remains as authentic and strong as ever, as was proven during the 2021 Monterey Car Week auctions.

Elite motorcycle auctions have been few and far between outside the US since COVID-19 came to visit, but the long-awaited Bonhams’ Three-day Summer Sale will be held later this week with a dozen motorcycle capable of fetching more than $100,000 apiece.

The collectible motorcycle marketplace has snapped back into action with Mecum belatedly wrapping up its annual January Las Vegas auctions on May 1, following a four-day-sale. The results are intriguing, particularly if you're a Harley Knucklehead fan.

One of the most delightful oddities of the EICMA 2019 motorcycle show is a step closer to production. The Aston Martin AMB001, featuring a 180-horsepower turbo Brough Superior motor, has begun its dynamic track test program at Pau-Arnos in France.

This curvy, flat-helmeted thing is the result of an all-British partnership between Aston Martin and the revived Brough Superior brand. Built on a 180-horsepower turbo V-Twin, the AMB 001 is Aston's vision of what a cutting-edge motorcycle should be.

Three of the most expensive motorcycles in history sell during Monterey Car Week 2019.

Monterey Car Week is where the world's most monied automotive enthusiasts congregate once a year, and as usual, there are quite a few elite motorcycles on offer. We count 15, maybe 16 motorcycles that are expected to fetch six figures, headed by two Crockers likely to fetch $500,000 each.

Bonhams Spring and Autumn Stafford Sales are two of the highlights of the global auction year for rare and storied motorcycles. Every year there are records broken, and many of the world's most expensive motorcycles have crossed the block at this venue. This year was no exception.

The remarkable rise of "basketcase" prices continued at the British National Motorcycle Museum​ on Saturday March 2, when a new world auction record for a Brough Superior motorcycle​ was set at £425,500 ($561,556).
