Brough Superior SS100 Motorcycle / Karslake
Price starting : contact us.
Brough Superior’s SS100 Karslake draws inspiration from the motorcycles ridden by Bonneville’s "Speed Hunters" at the turn of the last century. The SS100 Karslake boldly revisits the brand’s very first iconic model - the Super Sport 100 - the world’s first motorcycle to break the 100mph speed record. This modernized, race-inspired version is extraordinarily aerodynamic; its streamlined design and dropped riding position reduces drag while providing a more aggressive riding position. Named after Harold Karslake, a famous engineer and George Brough’s friend, the SS100 Karslake is hand-assembled and custom-built at the luxury brand’s French workshop. Boasting a revamped design, this bespoke machine is completely tailored to its future owner’s specifications. The Brough Superior SS100 Karslake is a truly exceptional work of mechanical art, redefining elegance and performance, designated for individuals with a discerning eye for luxury, speed and an unparalleled riding experience.
