Shelby Autos and Rucker Performance

Shelby: The Ultimate High Performance Motorcycle

This incredible high performance American motorcycle, which rivals the power to weight ratio of the famed Shelby Cobra 427 S/C, was developed in partnership between the two companies and will be built by Rucker Performance, under license by Carroll Shelby Licensing, Inc.

"My team at Shelby Automobiles has worked closely with Rucker Performance to create a motorcycle that offers the same thrill as driving my Cobra."
Carroll Shelby, CEO of Shelby Automobiles


The specs of this pro-stock style bike make any enthusiast's heart beat faster. Racing-style front forks and a high performance braking system with ceramic brake rotors make it nimble, while the Pingel 1-6 electric shifting system and air ride suspension make it comfortable. To keep the bike svelte, the upper body and wheels were built of carbon fiber while Superform create the aluminum body panels.

The heart of the powerhouse is a new S&S X-Wedge 128 c.i.d. engine with closed loop VFI fuel injection that churns out an astounding 150 HP. Rucker Performance is one of only five manufacturers to have access to the powerful new engine and one of the first applications is in the new Shelby motorcycle.

"It's a lightweight, fire-breathing ride that's as inspiring as the four wheeled vehicles that wear the Shelby name."
Bill Rucker, President of Rucker Performance
