Not street legal?

Track only - big mistake, should be street legal - the engine appears to be an Indian from the heads $120K is a lot for a bike that's not street legal. To me, a bike should look like an engine with wheels - what you can see looks nice, but I would have liked to see less faring - more engine. My last Buell S1 (1997 Lightning) project cost $5K total, including the bike with less than 4K miles on it - 101HP less than 400 lbs. I could turbo or supercharged it with a 1350cc kit, and did a ton of other trick and cool custom work done & other things and still had less than $20K total - and be street legal. They are only making a few of them, so I'm sure no problem finding a buyer. I think if Aston really wanted a cool Aston bike - their (older) V8 engine or the V12 in a bike like the V10 Dodge Tomahawk motorcycle would have been cool.

Unfortunately not what I was expecting from both parties involved. I've changed my mind on what to ask Santa for.

Love the design, but should've been designed street legal as mentioned earlier. AM could've done a little more on the leather work too.

Here are some better alternatives - Aston martin Motorcycles:


Years ago there was another Aston Martin theme bike I saw that had a ton of Aston design elements, but could not find it easily on the internet.

$120k and the AM logos are stickers !?!?!?!?????

Non-road legal makes zero sense.

It's hard to believe AM is looking for another way to lose money. The Vantage sales have been weak, SUV project probably going to be more of the same. They don't have the capital to continuing failing !

the logos are 6nm metal placed under the paint clearcoat

so not stickers... also this whole bike is hand built carbon fiber all over the place, not exactly cheap
