At 7:48 a.m., Dec. 7, 1941, Japanese fighters began their aerial attack on US ships in Pearl Harbor. On the 72nd anniversary of that moment, Confederate Motors revealed its newest bike, the C2 P-51 Fighter, as quoted from Autoevolution.

The new motorcycle is a development of the P120 Fighter, where motorcycles will keep with Confederate’s history of using lots of aluminum, titanium, stainless steel and carbon fiber and hold the V-twin engine which has a capacity of 1,966 cc and can spit out a power of 160 hp and maximum torque of 145 lb-ft.

Matthew Chambers in 1991.

Terblanche is a famous motorcycle designer who has worked on a number of the world's leading motorcycle manufacturers, such as Cagiva, Ducati, Piaggio and Norton. His famous designs including the Hypermotard, Multistrada and controversial motorcycle models 749/999.

The plan, Confederate C2 P-51 Fighter motorcycles will be made as many as 31 sample units and will go on sale in June or July next year. The estimated price for one unit of Confederate C2 P-51 Fighter motorcycle is £46,000, or around Rp. 904 million.
