Confederate Renovatio Project

Introducing the 2008 Confederate Renovatio Project, an audacious prototype that pushes the boundaries of motorcycle design and engineering. This striking concept model stands as a testament to Confederate's commitment to creating high-performance machines that are as much about artistry as they are about engineering. Positioned in the high-end market for motorcycle aficionados, the Renovatio Project captures the imagination with its radical design, high-caliber performance, and exclusive status—making it a coveted piece for collectors and riders who appreciate the finer details of the motorcycle world. At the heart of the Renovatio is a robust 1686cc V2 four-stroke engine, producing an impressive 135 horsepower at 98.5 kW. The engine's 11.0:1 compression ratio and advanced sequential fuel injection ensure that power delivery is not only potent but also smooth, allowing riders to experience exhilarating acceleration with every twist of the throttle. With a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive, the Renovatio promises a thrilling ride, whether you're carving through twisty backroads or cruising down the highway. The lightweight frame, tipping the scales at just 154.2 kg (340 pounds), combined with a power-to-weight ratio of 0.8754 HP/kg, means that this motorcycle feels agile and responsive, providing an engaging riding experience that is second to none. The design of the Renovatio Project is equally impressive, showcasing a girder-type aircraft aluminum and titanium multi-link frame, which not only contributes to its lightweight structure but also enhances durability and rigidity. The Penske coil-over shocks—both front and rear—are fully adjustable, allowing riders to fine-tune their experience based on their preferences and riding style. With advanced braking systems featuring dual 300 mm front discs and a 280 mm rear disc, stopping power is equally formidable, ensuring confidence in any riding scenario. Additionally, the optional 190 horsepower supercharger engine allows for an even more exhilarating ride, appealing to thrill-seekers who demand peak performance. **
