Combat FA-13 Bomber

.  

American Combat formerly known as Confederate Motorcycles is now headed by the new ‘Bomber’. The new bike is based on the original FA-13 Bomber and, according to Combat, “completes the package with a new, laid-back seat angle coupled with forward controls to make this bike the cruiser to lead all cruisers”.

Like all Combats, it’s powered by an S&S air-cooled V-twin and has a handmade aluminium monocoque chassis featuring a Hossack-style front-end. It’s available in raw aluminium or all-black.

- 100% carved from billet aluminum
- Over 800 hours to machine all components
- Anodized stealth-matte gray finish

​Each motorcycle is handcrafted to be an heirloom work of art that looks and rides like rebellion itself.

​In August 2016, our team took a race-spec P-51 Combat Fighter to the famed Bonneville Salt Flats. The P-51 achieved a top speed run of 164.95 mph on very slippery salt.

With it's race-spec suspension components and exhaust system, and a newly designed air intake system informed by these Bonneville speed runs, the 2019 FA-13 COMBAT BOMBER is the direct result of the P-51 land speed bike. The FA-13 Combat Bomber is the most powerful motorcycle ever produced by Confederate. You could argue it’s also one of the most aggressive as well – thanks in part to a monocoque frame made from 100 percent military-spec billet and a stealth-matte anodized finish.

Each machine communicates directly with it's rider so fortunate to experience it. It is the embodiment of authenticity, integrity and virtue.

It serves up the road, the journey, with no fluff, no contrivance. In motion, from grip to peg to saddle, the accuracy, precision, and look-you-dead-and-unflinching-in-the-eye quality communicate the travelled road directly in a no-nonsense manner. Combat Motor's most powerful model ever, with optimized airflow and race-proven suspension. Distinct, stealth-matte anodized finish with horsehide wrapped seat.

Like it's P-51 Combat Fighter predecessor, the FA-13 Bomber is carved entirely from solid billet blocks of military-grade aluminum, resulting in the most robust, fatigue-resistant motorcycle it is possible to create.
