[philipsona]

Bad ass!!! Suck it OPEC!!

[rummiena]

cool



[Clllllllllllllll]

look its TRON...

[geniegogo]

People like noise so shouldn't they record the wind noise also?  And isn't there wheel and tire noise as well? I'm just saying people might like it. Heck, skateboards make noise that people intuitively understand.

[BryBishop]

Weird how without the noise of an ICE, its impossible to judge speed and acceleration here. Any idea what average/top speeds were? Because there is only a minor change in pitch in roll-ons off the corners, hard to tell what the rate of change in velocity you are experiencing is. I know we are tight lipped about numbers, but any clues?

[ectoplasma2]

Now thats the possible shit right there : p

Get me one of these for 10 k euros that does 120 and I ll be paying cash tomorrow!

but until then...

awsome bike though

[thecombatnurse]

Well that's pretty cool. When do they plan to make the stylish and sporty versions affordable and available? The ones they are actually selling are a bit of a letdown after watching this :(

FUCK!!!! I LOVE 2t!!!!!!!!!

[jpmorgan187]

nice footage!

hey brammo, how much would a bike like this cost the consumer? please give me a ball park estimate.

[cypher954]

@jpmorgan187

you could build one that would be pretty fast...get a 6000 watt motor and buy a junker motorcycle and put on a controller and some batteries...it won't be as good as this one in the video but it'll be fast and quiet

[semillion1]

Could you please tell me what voltage and amps you were running? Was it still the perm motor in this bike?

[technosanity]

@sbeer6er yes to the best of my knowledge those were beefed up for the race. The purpose of the TTXGP however is to give the industry a proving ground, so future Brammo bikes will benefit from what they learned doing the race. Hopefully some of what they learned made it into their initial Enertia version.

About the sound... I own a home-built electric motorcycle myself and absolutely love the sound. But I'm used to it.

[Husoku]

Sounds like a huge RC car. Can't wait to test drive one of these!!

[ex201]

@Husoku Sounds like a Golfcart

[sbeer6er]

i wonder if these are beefed up for the racing..

[DucBiker93]

the sound is verry bad!!^^

[gurlsingerfan]

Let's all be sure and let Best Buy know how much we appreciate their sponsorship of this sport and what they are doing for the newly birthing sport of EV motorcycles and motorcycle racing. Thank you Best Buy, we do recognize what you are doing! :-)

[Heckhz]

Your so right!!! If you have Comcast cable television. the 09' practice is coming on at 9pm EST (NYC) Monday, July 13, 09. Channel 205 HDT. i want all the fans to tune in so it receives the ratings it deserves... Whatever your TV service is look for it or request it.

[jpmorgan187]

best buy sucks, newegg should sell these!

[mechanicization]

this on bike footage was from Roy Richardsons bike !

[DangerJ]

Damn, the camera angle messes up the whole video...you think hes constantly turning.

[Hemaworstje]

prrrff

[laurasIs2c]

Thanks for the post, and hope you put out the facts that matter to anyone who is interested in switching to electirc vehicles.

How long does it take to charge, how long will it run on a charge and how long is the battery expected to last.

Thanks for filling in the details.

Have fun.

[maigj]

This tilted cam and this intergalactic-hovercraft noise are quite sickening...

Nice footage though!

[frodus17]
