Technical Overview
2023 Brough Superior Anniversary Original Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
Built around Brough Superior's sport motorcycle platform, the 2023 Brough Superior Anniversary Original pairs a 997 cc (60.8 cu in) liquid-cooled v2, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 102 HP (74.5 kW) at 9,600 rpm while maximum torque reaches 87 Nm (64.2 lb-ft) at 7,300 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 102.3 HP per liter and a 2,300 rpm working window between peak torque (7,300 rpm) and peak power (9,600 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the Anniversary Original measures 186 kg (410 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.55 HP/kg (1.82 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 820 mm (32.3 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,540 mm (60.6 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability.
