Engineered by Confederate for the naked motorcycle segment, the 2016 Confederate X132 Hellcat Speedster pairs a 2163.2 cc (132 cu in) v2, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 120 HP (87.6 kW) while maximum torque reaches 189.8 Nm (140 lb-ft), transferring power to the rear wheel through a 5-speed gearbox and shaft drive (cardan) final drive. With a specific output of 55.5 HP per liter, the engine character is prioritizing low-RPM tractability, mechanical longevity and relaxed throttle response over peak redline numbers.
On the scales, the X132 Hellcat Speedster measures 226.8 kg (500 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.53 HP/kg (1.89 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 724 mm (28.5 in) seat height — giving shorter riders and urban commuters confident flat-foot reach at traffic stops, combined with a 1,610 mm (63.4 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 17.98-liter (4.7 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints, while factory top speed is listed at 277 km/h (172 mph).
