         THESE SECURITIES (THE "SECURITIES") HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE
         SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE
         AND MAY NOT BE SOLD OR OFFERED FOR SALE IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE
         REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL OR
         OTHER EVIDENCE ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT
         REQUIRED.

                         TITAN MOTORCYCLE CO. OF AMERICA

                          COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT

                  1. Issuance; Certain Definitions. In consideration of good and
valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged by TITAN
MOTORCYCLE CO. OF AMERICA, a Nevada corporation (the "Company"), ESQUIRE TRADE &
FINANCE INC. or registered assigns (the "Holder") is hereby granted the right to
purchase at any time until 5:00 P.M., New York City time, on June 30, 2005 (the
"Expiration Date"), Eight Hundred Twenty-One Thousand Fifty-Three (821,053)
fully paid and nonassessable shares of the Company's Common Stock, par value
$.001 per share (the "Common Stock") at an initial exercise price per share (the
"Exercise Price") provided below, subject to further adjustment as set forth
herein. This Warrant is being issued pursuant to the terms of that certain
Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of June 20, 2000 (the "Securities
Purchase Agreement"), to which the Company and Holder (or Holder's predecessor
in interest) are parties. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall
have the meanings ascribed to them in the Securities Purchase Agreement.

                  2. Exercise of Warrants.

                     2.1 General. This Warrant is exercisable in whole or in
part at any time and from time to time. Such exercise shall be effectuated by
submitting to the Company (either by delivery to the Company or by facsimile
transmission as provided in Section 8 hereof) a completed and duly executed
Notice of Exercise (substantially in the form attached to this Warrant
Certificate) as provided in this paragraph. The date such Notice of Exercise is
faxed to the Company shall be the "Exercise Date," provided that the Holder of
this Warrant tenders this Warrant Certificate to the Company within five (5)
business days thereafter. The Notice of Exercise shall be executed by the Holder
of this Warrant and shall indicate the number of shares then being purchased
pursuant to such exercise. Upon surrender of this Warrant Certificate, together
with appropriate payment of the Exercise Price for the shares of Common Stock
purchased, the Holder shall be entitled to receive a certificate or certificates
for the shares of Common Stock so purchased. If the Notice of Exercise elects a
"cash" exercise, the Exercise Price per share of Common Stock for the shares
then being exercised shall be payable in cash or by certified or official bank
check. If the Notice of Exercise elects a "cashless" exercise, the Holder shall
thereby be entitled to receive a number of shares of Common Stock equal to (x)
the excess of the Current Market Value (as defined below) over the total cash
exercise price of the portion of the Warrant then being exercised, divided by
(y) the Market Price of the Common Stock as of the trading day immediately prior
to the Exercise Date. For the
<PAGE>   2
purposes of this Warrant, the terms (Q) "Current Market Value" shall mean an
amount equal to the Market Price of the Common Stock as of the trading day
immediately prior to the Exercise Date, multiplied by the number of shares of
Common Stock specified in such Notice of Exercise, and (R) "Market Price of the
Common Stock" shall an amount equal to the closing price of the Common Stock as
reported by Bloomberg, LP or, if not so reported, as reported by the securities
exchange or automated quotation system on which the Common Stock is listed or on
the over-the-counter market for the relevant date. The Holder shall be deemed to
be the holder of the shares issuable to it in accordance with the provisions of
this Section 2.1 on the Exercise Date.

                     2.2 Limitation on Exercise. Notwithstanding the provisions
of this Warrant, the Securities Purchase Agreement or of the other Transaction
Agreements, in no event (except (i) as specifically provided in this Warrant as
an exception to this provision, (ii) while there is outstanding a tender offer
for any or all of the shares of the Company's Common Stock, or (iii) on at least
sixty-five (65) days' advance written notice from the Holder) shall the Holder
be entitled to exercise this Warrant, or shall the Company have the obligation
to issue shares upon such exercise of all or any portion of this Warrant (and
the Company shall not have the right to require a Mandatory Exercise, as defined
below), to the extent that, after such exercise the sum of (1) the number of
shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates
(other than shares of Common Stock which may be deemed beneficially owned
through the ownership of the unconverted portion of the Preferred Stock or
unexercised portion of the Warrants), and (2) the number of shares of Common
Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants with respect to which the
determination of this proviso is being made, would result in beneficial
ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more than 9.99% of the outstanding
shares of Common Stock (after taking into account the shares to be issued to the
Holder upon such exercise). For purposes of the proviso to the immediately
preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with
Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, except as
otherwise provided in clause (1) of such sentence. The Holder, by its acceptance
of this Warrant, further agrees that if the Holder transfers or assigns any of
the Warrants to a party who or which would not be considered such an affiliate,
such assignment shall be made subject to the transferee's or assignee's specific
agreement to be bound by the provisions of this Section 2.2 as if such
transferee or assignee were the original Holder hereof.

                     2.3 Exercise Price. The Exercise Price shall initially be:

                  (a) with respect to five-sixths of the shares covered by this
Warrant, $1.69; and

                  (b) with respect to the balance of the shares covered by this
Warrant, $2.26.

                     2.4 Mandatory Exercise.

                  (a) Company's Right to Issue Mandatory Exercise Notice.
Subject to the terms of this Section 2.4, at its option, the Company may one
time , by written notice (a "Mandatory Exercise


                                        2

<PAGE>   3
Notice") given to the Holder, accelerate the Expiration Date to a date which is
with respect to up to fifty percent (50%) of the shares covered by this Warrant
to a date (the "Mandatory Shares Expiration Date") which is at least ten (10)
business days after the date the Mandatory Exercise Notice is given. The
exercise of the Warrant contemplated by the Mandatory Exercise Notice is
referred to as the "Mandatory Exercise." The number of shares specified in the
Mandatory Exercise Notice is referred to as the "Mandatory Exercise Shares." The
Company may issue a Mandatory Exercise Notice if, and only if, all of the
following requirements are met:

                           (i) Registration Statement Available. The
         Registration Statement must have been effective and available for the
         resale of all of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the Mandatory
         Exercise at all times during the twenty (20) consecutive trading days
         ending on the trading day immediately before the Company issues a
         Mandatory Exercise Notice (such twenty trading days, the "Mandatory
         Period").

                           (ii) Required Common Stock Market Price. The closing
         bid price of the Common Stock for each trading day of the Mandatory
         Period shall be at least $2.85 (adjusted to take into account any stock
         split effected after the Initial Closing Date).

                           (iii) Required Common Stock Volume. The average
         trading volume of the Common Stock during the Mandatory Period shall be
         at least 50,000 shares per trading day (adjusted to take into account
         any stock split effected after the Initial Closing Date, except that
         with respect to a reverse stock split, the adjustment shall not be
         greater than a ratio of 1:4).

                           (iv) Conversion Limitation. The exercise of the
         Warrant contemplated by the Mandatory Exercise Notice shall not be
         inconsistent with the provisions of Section 2.2 hereof, which shall
         apply to Mandatory Exercise.

                  (b) Holder's Exercise. Upon the proper issuance of a Mandatory
Exercise Notice, the Holder may, on or before the Mandatory Expiration Date:

                           (i) exercise this Warrant for all or any of the
         Mandatory Exercise Shares at an applicable Exercise Price, and/or

                           (ii) with respect to the balance of the Mandatory
         Exercise Shares (the "Unexercised Shares"), give written notice to the
         Company as to which Exercise Price applied to the Unexercised Shares.

To the extent the Holder does not exercise this Warrant with respect to
Unexercised Shares on or before the Mandatory Expiration Date, the Holder's
rights under this Warrant with respect to the Unexercised Shares shall expire.


                                        3
<PAGE>   4
                  3. Reservation of Shares. The Company hereby agrees that at
all times during the term of this Warrant there shall be reserved for issuance
upon exercise of this Warrant such number of shares of its Common Stock as shall
be required for issuance upon exercise of this Warrant (the "Warrant Shares").

                  4. Mutilation or Loss of Warrant. Upon receipt by the Company
of evidence satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of
this Warrant, and (in the case of loss, theft or destruction) receipt of
reasonably satisfactory indemnification and affidavit, and (in the case of
mutilation) upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company will
execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor and date and any such lost,
stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant shall thereupon become void.

                  5. Rights of the Holder. The Holder shall not, by virtue
hereof, be entitled to any rights of a stockholder in the Company, either at law
or equity, and the rights of the Holder are limited to those expressed in this
Warrant and are not enforceable against the Company except to the extent set
forth herein.

                  6. Protection Against Dilution.

                     6.1 Adjustment Mechanism. If an adjustment of the Exercise
Price is required pursuant to this Section 6, the Holder shall be entitled to
purchase such number of additional shares of Common Stock as will cause (i) the
total number of shares of Common Stock Holder is entitled to purchase pursuant
to this Warrant, multiplied by (ii) the adjusted Exercise Price per share, to
equal (iii) the dollar amount of the total number of shares of Common Stock
which the Holder is entitled to purchase before adjustment, multiplied by the
total Exercise Price before adjustment.

                     6.2 Capital Adjustments. In case of any stock split or
reverse stock split, stock dividend, reclassification of the Common Stock,
recapitalization, merger or consolidation, or like capital adjustment affecting
the Common Stock of the Company, the provisions of this Section 6 shall be
applied as if such capital adjustment event had occurred immediately prior to
the date of this Warrant and the original Exercise Price had been fairly
allocated to the stock resulting from such capital adjustment; and in other
respects the provisions of this Section shall be applied in a fair, equitable
and reasonable manner so as to give effect, as nearly as may be, to the purposes
hereof. A rights offering to stockholders shall be deemed a stock dividend to
the extent of the bargain purchase element of the rights.

                     6.3 Adjustment for Spin Off. If, for any reason, prior to
the exercise of this Warrant in full, the Company spins off or otherwise divests
itself of a part of its business or operations or disposes all or a part of its
assets in a transaction (the "Spin Off") in which the Company does not receive
compensation for such business, operations or assets, but causes securities of
another entity (the "Spin Off Securities") to be issued to security holders of
the Company, then


                                        4

<PAGE>   5
                  (a) the Company shall cause (i) to be reserved Spin Off
         Securities equal to the number thereof which would have been issued to
         the Holder had all of the Holder's unexercised Warrants outstanding on
         the record date (the "Record Date") for determining the amount and
         number of Spin Off Securities to be issued to security holders of the
         Company (the "Outstanding Warrants") been exercised as of the close of
         business on the trading day immediately before the Record Date (the
         "Reserved Spin Off Shares"), and (ii) to be issued to the Holder on the
         exercise of all or any of the Outstanding Warrants, such amount of the
         Reserved Spin Off Shares equal to (x) the Reserved Spin Off Shares
         multiplied by (y) a fraction, of which (I) the numerator is the amount
         of the Outstanding Warrants then being exercised, and (II) the
         denominator is the amount of the Outstanding Warrants; and

                  (b) the Exercise Price on the Outstanding Warrants shall be
         adjusted immediately after consummation of the Spin Off by multiplying
         the Exercise Price by a fraction (if, but only if, such fraction is
         less than 1.0), the numerator of which is the average Market Price of
         the Common Stock for the five (5) trading days immediately following
         the fifth trading day after the Record Date, and the denominator of
         which is the average Market Price of the Common Stock on the five (5)
         trading days immediately preceding the Record Date; and such adjusted
         Exercise Price shall be deemed to be the Exercise Price with respect to
         the Outstanding Warrants after the Record Date.

                  7. Transfer to Comply with the Securities Act; Registration
Rights.

                     7.1 Transfer. This Warrant has not been registered under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the "Act") and has been issued to the
Holder for investment and not with a view to the distribution of either the
Warrant or the Warrant Shares. Neither this Warrant nor any of the Warrant
Shares or any other security issued or issuable upon exercise of this Warrant
may be sold, transferred, pledged or hypothecated in the absence of an effective
registration statement under the Act relating to such security or an opinion of
counsel satisfactory to the Company that registration is not required under the
Act. Each certificate for the Warrant, the Warrant Shares and any other security
issued or issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall contain a legend on the
face thereof, in form and substance satisfactory to counsel for the Company,
setting forth the restrictions on transfer contained in this Section.

                     7.2 Registration Rights. (a) Reference is made to the
Registration Rights Agreement. The Company's obligations under the Registration
Rights Agreement and the other terms and conditions thereof with respect to the
Warrant Shares, including, but not necessarily limited to, the Company's
commitment to file a registration statement including the Warrant Shares, to
have the registration of the Warrant Shares completed and effective, and to
maintain such registration, are incorporated herein by reference.

                  (b) In addition to the registration rights referred to in the
preceding provisions of Section 7.2(a), effective after the expiration of the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement as contemplated by the Registration
Rights Agreement, the Holder shall have piggy-back registration


                                        5

<PAGE>   6
rights with respect to the Warrant Shares then held by the Holder or then
subject to issuance upon exercise of this Warrant (collectively, the "Remaining
Warrant Shares"), subject to the conditions set forth below. If, at any time
after the Registration Statement has ceased to be effective, the Company
participates (whether voluntarily or by reason of an obligation to a third
party) in the registration of any shares of the Company's stock (other than a
registration on Form S-4 or Form S-8), the Company shall give written notice
thereof to the Holder and the Holder shall have the right, exercisable within
ten (10) business days after receipt of such notice, to demand inclusion of all
or a portion of the Holder's Remaining Warrant Shares in such registration
statement. If the Holder exercises such election, the Remaining Warrant Shares
so designated shall be included in the registration statement at no cost or
expense to the Holder (other than any costs or commissions which would be borne
by the Holder under the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement), subject to
the following condition: if there is a managing underwriter of the offering of
shares referred to in the registration statement and such managing underwriter
advises the Company in writing that the number of shares proposed to be included
in the offering will have an adverse effect on its ability to successfully
conclude the offering and, as a result, the number of shares to be included in
the offering is to be reduced, the number of Remaining Warrant Shares of the
Holder which were to be included in the registration (before such reduction)
will be reduced pro rata with the number of shares included for all other
parties whose shares are being registered. The Holder's rights under this
Section 7 shall expire at such time as the Holder can sell all of the Remaining
Warrant Shares under Rule 144 without volume or other restrictions or limit.

                  8. Notices. Any notice or other communication required or
permitted hereunder shall be in writing and shall be delivered personally,
