2027Veloce Motorcycle Ethereal
14 fields on record
The Veloce Motorcycle Ethereal is the more accessible entry point into the Banbury-based British manufacturer's range, sharing the Aperion's café racer chassis but powered by a smaller 500cc L-4 two-stroke engine producing a claimed 143 hp (107 kW) at 12,000 rpm through four carburetors. Chassis hardware mirrors its 8-cylinder sibling - reverse-action telescopic fork with radial 4-piston front brakes, single-sided swingarm, 6-speed manual gearbox with chain final drive - in a hand-built steel tubular-lattice frame with no ABS or electronic rider aids. Hand-assembled in the UK, 48 examples are planned, with first deliveries expected in 2027.

How it rides
Editorial estimate from the spec sheet - not lab tested- Best for
- A more attainable route into hand-built two-stroke performance than the flagship Aperion, though still a specialist, low-volume machine rather than an everyday bike.
- Built for
- A smaller-displacement, more accessible sibling to the wild Aperion, but still a genuinely exotic hand-built two-stroke unlike anything mainstream.
- Not ideal for
- Not for new or inexperienced riders, not for daily use or touring, and not for anyone wanting modern electronic safety aids.
Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.
