    American Made Motorcycle you should know about.

    Made right here in my home state Alabama!

    I test rode one of these beauties - wished the pegs/controls for my feet were slightly forward and it would have been a done deal.

    enjoy.

    Last summer at the SCRC Alabama chapter state rally we did a tour of both Motus and Confederate factories. I really like that V-4 but like you could not live with the sport bike build. Now if they would put that thing in a sporty cruiser bagger type I would be interested.

    Feet Forward? Please tell me what is the big deal about getting bugs on the soles of your boots. One of the reasons I bought my Valkyrie in '98 was that the footpegs were where they should be. Same deal with the F6B. I have more of a feeling of control with my feet back under my hips. Not finding fault, just asking.

    Short comings

    Missing two cylinders and the bags are ugly! Its also too noisy, and its too much money, other than that it has enough horsepower and torque! I will stick to this fine F6B.

    Wow tell us how you really feel-LOL.I don't agree as I think at that horsepower and torque the 4 cylinders work fine.Price is high for the market it is in but then the people who will buy this have that kind of disposable income and appreciate the great braking and suspension components that come on this ride.Just cause I can't afford one does not equate to me not wanting one-Just have to hit the Lotto!
