Confederate Motorcycles teases P120 Black Flag, we'll take ours in... black by Jeremy Korzeniewski (RSS feed) on Jun 24th 2010 at 4:29PM

Confederate Motorcycles has been through a lot in the last couple of years. Through it all, though – from barely surviving Hurricane Katrina to a new home in Alabama to now finally getting some much-needed new funding and likely moving back to Louisiana – the high-end motorcycle company has thankfully kept producing eye-catching machinery to lust after.
The latest machine to roll through the warehouse at Confederate is a new, darker take on the production P120 Fighter. Using a similar frame of 6061 aircraft-grade aluminum monocoque backbone, bulkhead and fuselage side plate construction along with the marque's double-wishbone front end, the new P120 Black Flag adds a healthy dose of all-black style.
Power for the Black Flag comes from the same 120-cubic-inch V-twin engine with 160 horsepower and 135 pound-feet of torque as used in the standard Fighter. Suffice it to say that's plenty of power. Pricing has yet to be set, but you can rest assured knowing it won't be cheap and that there will be a limited number of Black Flags available. See for yourself in our photo gallery below.
