Vengeance Motorcycles announced today the introduction of a new chopper model dubbed the “Black Widow”. This motorcycle is an extension of their already popular line of bikes which have become known in the industry to be the “best of the best” in terms of the components on the bikes and fit and finish of the final product.
Webster’s Dictionary defines a “Nemesis” as “one who delivers Vengeance”. The American Heritage Dictionary indicates that in Greek mythology “Nemesis” was “the goddess of retributive justice or vengeance”. Either way, this year Nemesis is coming to an event near you.

“You may be asking yourself: ‘Who is this Vengeance company? I’ve never heard of them.’ And in that, you may be correct, since they just closed the books on year one of production. But in that time, Vengeance has created a six-bike lineup featuring four choppers, a pro street and a beach cruiser.
Five of the six carry a 113 ci S&S motor (the Striker has a 107) that looks as good as it runs—the finish on the polishing is incredible. Smooth-shifting five-speed transmissions and lots chrome billet everywhere add to the package.
With distinctive sheet metal designs and wild graphics, a Vengeance is easily recognized on the street. As you pour over any of the available models, the attention to detail will keep your attention at its peak.” — Howard Kelly, Editor Hotbike Magazine
Thanks for the kind words! Watch for next months issue of Hotbike with a feature story and test-ride review of a Vengeance Vindicator.
