Description
The Brough Superior: A Story of Motorcycle Excellence George Brough started building motorcycles shortly after the First World War. He named his machines Brough Superior to distinguish them from his father's Brough machines and to denote their exceptional performance and quality. Throughout the 1920s and 1930s, the name Brough Superior became synonymous with the best in motorcycle design. The Brough Superior gained fame in the hands of skilled riders, including notable figures such as Bert le Vack, Eric Fernihough, Noel Pope, and T.E. Lawrence. This book tells the full story of Brough and Brough Superior from the early years of the twentieth century through to the end of production in the Second World War, and post-war attempts at revival. With over 270 pages of detailed information, this book provides a comprehensive history of the Brough Superior motorcycle.
