Not as bad as I thought price wise (Wildcat X $34,995 base) but it has a lot of problems in the reviews.

$35,000 may not seem bad to you but that's about half what I owe on my home plus the one I bought my grand-daughter Presley that's on the same property...... Never will the day come when I pay $35,000.00 for a bike.....Unless I hit the lottery  |

only a 2 speed trans and you have to pause in nutral no speed shifting. Fords 302 on most. Compare the price to a Boss Hoss @ $50,000

I saw them at Bike Week in Daytona, their bikes look nicer than Boss Hoss to me. But I'm a Ford guy!  The bike with the turbo has either a 4.6 or a 5.4 Ford V-8. I just have a hard time getting over the funky look of the stretch that all the V-8 bikes have. I really do like the way this V-8 bike looks. Saw it at Willie's Tropical Tattoo chopper show last year.   |

That bike looks like one from honest Charlie's speed shop. I love the look!

Looks cool, but they all seem to have so much torquing to the side. Honda got it right with the counter rotation to eliminate this. I'd hate to jump on it and get ejected off or have to fight that torque pull. Just gunning it in neutral could lift it off the side stand.
