TAILGUNNER® EXHAUST NEWS

When ICON MOTORSPORTS International Product Specialist Jason R. Fullington was charged with building the promotional bike for ICONS newest helmet, the “DOMAIN 2 WARTHOG,” he knew what had to be done. And how to do it. With help from the other talented members in the ICON design studio the team ardently accepted their assignment. The mission was straightforward: Build a motorcycle that embodies Icon’s mentality of performance based products and make sure it turns some heads. The new Warthog ZX-10 features a long list of custom goodies including 800 watts of audio, LCD screen, 188 rear wheel horse-power, graphics based on the new DOMAIN 2 WARTHOG helmet and the coup de grace: Three, count ‘em, three Tailgunner stealth black universal fit exhaust models with one coming straight at you for good measure. Below is a description from the author himself. And as Jason says: Praise God and pass the ammunition.


THE WARTHOG / from ICON MOTORSPORTS:

So you wanna’ kill sh*t? You wanna’ dispense more depleted uranium than a Nevada HAZMAT waste depot? Then the Warthog is your weapon of choice. An Angelic gun sent to allocate 30mm judgment on the unworthy. Praise God and pass the ammunition.

In the 70's, the United States Air Force developed the A-10 (a.k.a. “Warthog'') as a means of supporting ground troops with massive firepower…Mission Accomplished!
Flash forward 35 years and now its Icon’s turn to support the ground troops with our version of “Superior Firepower”.

Built over a period of 8 weeks in AREA 13 of the ICON compound, The Warthog ZX-10 epitomizes the Icon mentality of performance-based product. Obviously the first thing that grabs one's attention is the 800-watt MTX audio system. It'll spit “Symphony of Destruction” in the twisties or blast lil Wayne at the local bike night. But audio by itself isn’t enough. So we added an 8" LCD screen to view Full Metal Jacket, Iron Eagle, or Top Gun and the ability to broadcast a view of the victims left in the wake via an integrated rear view camera. And, yes, the A/V system will run off the 10’s own charging system.

The motor, much like the stereo, was designed to thump. Dyno'd at 188 RWHP, it'll stomp just about any 'show' bike on the circuit today. The graphics, based on the Icon Domain II Warthog helmet, were painstakingly applied by Icon’s own in-house staff.

And like the aircraft that has defended our country’s interests for 3+ decades, this tribute machine is yet another Ugly Beast that “Hog Drivers” throughout the world will regard as “One bad Mother F*%#er”!

ARLINGTON, Va. (Oct. 2, 2007) - Hundreds of Soldiers gathered here in front of the Army National Guard Readiness Center on Sept. 27 to witness the unveiling of the "Patriot Chopper," the first of three bikes to be built by Orange County Choppers for the National Guard. The Teutuls have a history of building patriotic bikes, and they have produced multiple theme bikes for several branches of the military. Paul Sr. made a grand entrance on the bike, coasting in coolly and revving the engine to the enthusiastic cheers of the crowd. The finished bike showcases a Tailgunner Exhaust, Rotary Cannon "FIGHTER" model that actually has spinning barrels, the blade spokes of the wheels feature 3-D inlaid spearheads, representing the seven Army values and an ammunition belt lines the handlebars. Chromed M-4 magazines serve as the struts, and an M-4 carbine is mounted on the side of the rear wheel. he "Patriot Chopper" is the first of three bikes commissioned by the Army National Guard. The purpose is twofold. First, the bikes are intended to be a recruiting tool. Second, the bikes can also convey important messages about safety. Army Guard recruiters will display them at rallies across the country to entice potential Soldiers to talk with them. "They're very willing to help us out in terms of safety awareness and wearing the proper gear for our Soldiers," said Maj. Gen. Nuttall. "The bike is one part of it - the build. But the safety is really what we're trying to get after."
