Electric motorcycle maker Brammo (of Oregon) has unveiled its Empulse and Empulse R models, each with a range of 160 km and able to hit a top speed of 160 km/h (the only electric motorcycles to accomplish such feats). Given its lithium-cobalt battery-powered and water-cooled AC motor and regenerative breaking, Brammo Empulse Electric Motorcycle will be significantly quieter than the other bikes on the street, but Bramsher believes that just adds more back to the riding experience. With prices starting at about $17,000, Brammo is looking to send models to 80 of the top dealerships around the United States, with a specific focus on California and Florida, where riding is almost always in-season.
