Was doing some work for 'Uncle Sugar' yesterday and stopped into Confederate. Very unassuming shop, not even a sign out front. I'd like to thank Paul, he gave me the full tour even though I told him I couldn't afford to purchase one of their bikes. There were 3 Wraiths out front (pic) one was back from Russia for service. One pic is an old gauge they used before switching to Motogadget. The close up shots are the new 'Hellcat Speedster '. He gave me some swag as well.

They truly need to be 'studied' in person to see all the bits.
mmmm detail *drool*
[drool]
I'd give my left nut for one of those. Possibly both.
I'm a fairly one Ducati fan, but I'd have no problem parking one of them in my garage!

What a great speed salt picture.
Also want to say how much better this bike looks than their stocker.
Great pics, thanks for sharing!
[evil]
yes badsass for sure, just get that ugly shark mouth piece off the bottom ans I'm in
I guess I will be the first the crash the party and say that, while I appreciate the effort to produce good quality mechanical single parts, I really do not like the end result.
who wants to go to the salt flats? UT is now part of my territory so I'm not missing it this year.

If you do go, don't take your own vehicle out on the salt.
Rent a car in Salt Lake City or hitch a ride from Wendover.
The salt will hammer f*ck your car or bike.
Nuts : Just when I thought I was "kind a satisfied" you had to show me that.
Going to Bonneville Speed Week is on my personal bucket list. 8)
Got two recruits from Grand Junction coming with. I'll have a rental, no worries [cheeky]

Too true.
Was back in town doing some 'squirrel' work and stopped in the shop. Matt was there and I spoke with him and his main designer. Very nice folks. Just so happened the 174mph salt flats bike was there. Pure make the beast with two backsing evil. [evil]

I agree 100%. Just because someone has the machinery, the money, and the time doesn't make them John Britten...
I would so ride that thing on the street, just slap on a headlight and taillight (and maybe a front brake). [evil]
That bike would make Batman jealous.

Make sure to stop by the Team Unorthodux pits...
Dirty Duc. Pm me details. Planning my trip now.
i need one of those badly in my mad max voice! [evil]
I think they make some unique great looking bikes. Saw one in person and have to say they are an impressive sight to behold. If you appreciate detail this bike has it in spades. They treat bike making like an art form with little to no expense spared. I know they're not the only ones but I for one would love to have one.
