Cobra CX65

Cobra, builder of championship-winning minibikes, is fully committed to continued development of its flagship CX65 motocrosser. The CX’s liquid-cooled, two-stroke engine now features the world’s first direct-acting, fully electronic powervalve working in concert with its race-tuned pipe and silencer. A hydraulic clutch mated to a six-speed gearbox gives the rider full authority when trying to put all of the engine’s power to the ground. An upgraded 35mm Marzocchi inverted fork and CARD-shock rear suspension provide enough travel to help the rider maintain control over the biggest jumps and bumps that the racetrack is likely to throw at it.

Cobra CX50 Senior/CX50 Junior

The Cobra CX50 Senior is powered by a liquid-cooled two-stroke engine that packs race-winning performance into its 50cc size, and the suspension delivers exceptional wheel travel for a bike in this class. The Senior is designed and built to stand up to the rigors of serious mini off-road racing with a rugged twin-spar frame and ample suspension travel provided by the 30mm Cobra fork and fully adjustable CARD shock. Also available: The CX50 Junior, a smaller, lighter version of the Senior that uses a 10-inch-diameter wheel size and has less suspension travel for a lower seat height.

Confederate X132 Hellcat/R131 Fighter

Alabama-based Confederate builds musclecruisers like no other. The XI32 Hellcat is about the closest thing you can get to piloting a low-flying hot-rod engine with landing gear deployed! Its massive 132 cubic-inch, fuel-injected motor is claimed to produce a whopping 150 foot-pounds of torque. Top-shelf race-spec suspension, wheels and brakes ensure that the Hellcat’s fury remains on a proper flight path. Also available: The R131 Fighter, a 10-bike limited run with an engine and chassis machined almost entirely from aircraft-grade billet aluminum.

Ducati 1199 Panigale S Tricolore

Codename of the brand-new 1199 Panigale during development was “Extreme.” Well, there is no more extreme—or expensive—version of the Panigale than the top-of-the-line S Tricolore. Like the standard S model, the Tricolore is equipped with bright LED headlights and pushbutton Öhlins electronically adjustable suspension with Race, Sport and Wet settings. Unique to the Tricolore is a stylish red, white and green paint job reminiscent of the Italian national flag, a new-generation Ducati Data Analyzer+ with GPS lap-timer function and a lightweight titanium racing muffler.
