Welcome to the club, Barboo. I'm in Chicagoland, and I think I may have left a comment on your thread in TDJ on Facebook. Enjoy!

Welcome. I went to grad school in Bloomington and you have some nice roads for the Empulse. I still remember fall foliage in Brown County.

Thanks gang. Looking forward to it getting warmer out. In the meantime I'm going to add some mods. :)

Welcome and congratulations!  I heard you have aspirations of racing that bad boy... true?

Yep...going to join in on the eMotoRacing series action. Looking at MI/WI dates since they're closest to me. Can't wait for the crazy weather to stop so I can get this on the road. I normally ride during the Winter but not in all the snow/ice we've been getting this year.

Quick Q for folks, does Brammo have a tidy tail available or do I need to go my own way and fab something? I read the threads and seemed somewhat inconclusive as to where it stood right now.

That's awesome news on your plans to race.  Looking forward to your race reports in the Racing subsection of the forum! ;)

No official tail tidy right now.  We had one, but it got caught up in the recall we had early last year.  We're currently trying to find an aftermarket partner to develop a new one for us.  It should be pretty simple to construct your own though as a couple on this forum have done.  Jeff?...

Cool, sounds good. I have some other aftermarket goodies coming right now so I'll get something done for the tail later this Spring/Summer. It's Bob. :)
