Thierry Henriette bought the rights and has been producing Broughs since 2016

they originally did resemble the old Broughs in a way, but this rocket ship thing is weird
Good reference Ferret.

Hey, I welcome any custom bike, no matter how weird or impractical it may seem. Means people are still innovating in our market.
Does it look like a Brough? No. Does it have anything to do with an Aston? No. But who cares!
When the Petersen Museum reopened in 2015 after remodeling, they dedicated a permanent motorcycle exhibit space. I had my fingers crossed that a Brough Superior would be one of the first bikes they displayed, and I was not disappointed. It was awesome just to be near it.
