Bike worth Rs. 1 crore hits the ground

On May 10, Combat Motors unveiled their latest machine, a 254 kg torque monster called the Wraith. The Combat Wraith is a very different bike. The brand isn’t all that well known in India, but it is known for some very limited edition motorcycles that look more like they belong in an artist’s studio rather than out on the street.

The Combat Wraith evolves on the design that the company started with. It is built with military-grade lightweight aluminium. But like the rest of the company’s lineup from the F-117 fighter onwards, the unique touches are very visible. The fuel tank, air box, throttle body and even the cam timing cover. They’re all transparent.

Next is the engine. The 2,163cc V-twin engine is capable of 110.5 PS of maximum power and a gut-churning 195 Nm of torque. The Wraith is also one of the rare motorcycles on the street that features a girder double-wishbone front suspension and an offset cantilever rear monoshock. What makes the Wraith truly unique is that it has two set of footpegs with two sets of foot controls. Basically, you can stretch your legs to cruise and bring it back under your legs when you’re feeling sporty.

The Combat Wraith like the rest of the Combats is very limited, only 21 units to be exact. It is priced at $1,55,000 or roughly Rs 1.14 crore.
