Magpul may enter bike market
Magpul is best known for their firearm accessories but they also design firearms, design airsoft guns, do tactical training, produce training DVDs and most recently: manufacture iPod accessories. They are now looking at entering the motorcycle business.
Hell for Leather has a very interesting article about the Magpul Ronin bike …
They won’t say how large a production run could be feasible, but they have “about 25″ 1125Rs on hand and could potentially convert customer bikes too. If that happens and if it goes well, the company has discussed spinning of a new brand specifically dedicated to motorcycles. Magpul doesn’t see itself becoming a provider of aftermarket parts, but rather a motorcycle maker. What we could be seeing here is the genesis of a new American motorcycle company.

Magpul will have to find/create another platform to mod if they intend to manufacture motorcycles..
not to mention, that the front end looks very similar to Confederate Motorcycles..

Like cocaine, motorcyles are the way God tells you have you have much f'n money. Buell made the best bikes of the century. No joke. Where are they now?
