Brough Superior SS 80 (1927)
Our Brough Superior SS 80 with a 1000 cc V-twin engine presented here was manufactured in 1927 by the English motorbike brand of the same name, which produced in Nottingham (England) from 1919 to 1940. The company was founded and very successfully run by the world-famous designer and racing driver George Brough. When building a Brough Superior, only the best and most expensive materials were used by hand. This and the reliability soon earned the brand the honorary title “Rolls-Royce of motorbikes”. Until 1940, approx. 3,050 examples of a total of 19 models were produced, of which approx. a third of them still exist today and are sought-after collector’s items.
