Confederate Motorcycles

Post by Mclintoc »

Them boys down south are at it again. You can see their latest project at http://www.confederate.com/renovatio.php

Being a poor boy, I have little hope of ever riding one of these machines, but I think these are the most beautiful bikes ever made. (This latest one is still a question mark.) Better than the old Vincents, better than the Harleys of the 50s-60s. Radical, pure--art.

Not my cup-o'-tea, but the Hellcat looks interesting. I've read about the second model's development. Driven more by an art major than an engineer.

The third one???? :shock: Looks like the aliens probed too hard.

Bet they don't bother fitting bags to that beast.

I'm with you, man. I would give somebody's left you-know-what for a Hellcat. I think all I can afford is their T-shirt and, without the bike, that would just be bad form.
