45 Limited-Edition Confederate Fighter motorcycles are available from the 2009 Neiman Marcus Christmas book.
Like the Wraith, the Confederate Fighter uses a girder-style front suspension made up of titanium, aluminum and carbon fiber bits and a 120ci 45-degree air-cooled V-Twin. From there, things diverge rather rapidly, with the Wraith's carbon fiber monocoque chassis being replaced with a backbone unit made from titanium connected to front and rear bulkheads cut from solid chunks of billet aluminum.
Here's a breakdown of what you'll get if you fork over the $110,000.

It remains me of the Dodge Tomahawk bike with a V-10 engine.
Cute, but not legal for on-road use in any US state. I certainly wouldn't ride it at any speed either. I see a couple of severe safety issues. Why even bother creating such form of a functional device that doesn't function as its form is trying to represent? In other words, why make an artsy motorcycle that can't motorcycle?
