britten motorcycle

The Britten motorcycle is a legendary New Zealand engineering marvel, crafted by John Britten in the early 1990s. Known for its radical design and groundbreaking use of carbon fibre, this bike was a true trailblazer with a V-twin 1000cc engine producing around 166 horsepower, all packed into a featherweight frame tipping the scales at just about 130 kg. Its use of innovative technology like a frameless chassis and carbon fibre wheels made it a darling on the racetrack and a collector's dream.

New Britten motorcycles are as rare as a polite Sydney traffic jam, with only a handful ever made. Expect to hunt around specialist vintage and collector markets like Tradingpost or CarShowroom for any available examples, where prices can skyrocket well into six figures AUD. If you’re looking for specs or maintenance tips, definitely consult official Britten documentation and specialist forums—this isn’t your average commuter bike.
