He was known for his beautifully hand-crafted, powerful, and expensive Brough-Superior motorcycles. His devotion as a racer and showman won over the hearts those who pursued and could afford the fastest and most prestigious motorcycles that money could buy.

In 1928, George Brough recorded the speed of 130.6 m.p.h. at Arpajon, unofficially the worlds fastest speed on a solo motorcycle.
