Title: Confederate Post by: kopfjäger on February 04, 2015, 04:10:14 PM 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.

Title: Re: Confederate Post by: lazylightnin717 on February 04, 2015, 07:17:26 PM Freakin' nice machining all over those bikes.
Title: Re: Confederate Post by: kopfjäger on February 04, 2015, 07:32:04 PM Freakin' nice machining all over those bikes. They truly need to be 'studied' in person to see all the bits. Title: Re: Confederate Post by: reverus on February 05, 2015, 12:02:43 PM mmmm detail *drool*
Title: Re: Confederate Post by: Speedbag on February 05, 2015, 01:04:57 PM [drool]
I'd give my left nut for one of those. Possibly both. Title: Re: Confederate Post by: monsta on February 05, 2015, 10:39:11 PM I'm a fairly one Ducati fan, but I'd have no problem parking one of them in my garage!

Also want to say how much better this bike looks than their stocker. Title: Re: Confederate Post by: eric on February 06, 2015, 10:52:53 AM Great pics, thanks for sharing!

Title: Re: Confederate Post by: HotIce on February 07, 2015, 10:55:16 AM 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.
Title: Re: Confederate Post by: muskrat on February 08, 2015, 01:56:24 PM who wants to go to the salt flats? UT is now part of my territory so I'm not missing it this year.
Title: Re: Confederate Post by: kopfjäger on February 08, 2015, 02:18:04 PM who wants to go to the salt flats? UT is now part of my territory so I'm not missing it this year. I'll do everything I can to meet you there this year. Title: Re: Confederate Post by: Speeddog on February 08, 2015, 10:18:07 PM who wants to go to the salt flats? UT is now part of my territory so I'm not missing it this year. I'll do everything I can to meet you there 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. Title: Re: Confederate Post by: BoDiddley on February 08, 2015, 11:31:24 PM Nuts : Just when I thought I was "kind a satisfied" you had to show me that.

Title: Re: Confederate Post by: eric on February 12, 2015, 10:31:50 AM 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. Too true. Title: Re: Confederate Post by: kopfjäger on June 17, 2015, 02:45:56 PM 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]

Title: Re: Confederate Post by: jduke on June 18, 2015, 05:00:34 AM 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. I agree 100%. Just because someone has the machinery, the money, and the time doesn't make them John Britten... Title: Re: Confederate Post by: Speedbag on June 19, 2015, 07:13:48 AM I would so ride that thing on the street, just slap on a headlight and taillight (and maybe a front brake). [evil]
Title: Re: Confederate Post by: Dochunt on June 19, 2015, 09:02:45 AM That bike would make Batman jealous.
Title: Re: Confederate Post by: Dirty Duc on June 24, 2015, 04:34:25 PM Got two recruits from Grand Junction coming with. I'll have a rental, no worries [cheeky] Make sure to stop by the Team Unorthodux pits...Title: Re: Confederate Post by: muskrat on June 24, 2015, 08:16:03 PM Dirty Duc. Pm me details. Planning my trip now.
Title: Re: Confederate Post by: ducati culture on July 16, 2015, 01:47:13 PM i need one of those badly in my mad max voice! [evil]
Title: Re: Confederate Post by: The ModFather on July 19, 2015, 05:18:28 PM 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.
