Awesome! I especially like the white rear wheel, though it must be a pain in the @#& to keep it looking clean.

Nice.. How hard was the wrap? Trying to get the bubbles out?

Clearing out the bubbles was not hard at all. And due to the carbon structure of the wrap a needle could be used to remove trapped air if necessary. Folds and the risk of overstretching were harder to manage since there are many curves and corners to handle. The "tank" had to be done in 2 pieces (left and right) The stripings came in handy to cover the overlap.
Don't think I will do it again some day soon. Vinyl wrap is great for the "uncomplicated" surfaces like the hood of a car.

I think I'm gonna get a gallon of Real Red Pearl plastidip from dipyourcar.com to spray my plastics.

So kind of half way between Automotive paint and Home Depot stuff. Also plastidip is removable.

Sweet! A lot cheaper than vinyl... And faster results. Also, should last long (if done properly).
Be sure to post some pics when done.

After doing some repair work on my empulse after a stupid accident, I decided to draw the Line a little further and modify some thing that were on my wish list since buying "my precious".
It still is a work in progress, but a few photos show the general idea. More to follow...

@ nunux59,

Yeah, that was me 

In the meantime crash protectors have been placed on the frame and side reflectors on the license plate and front fender have been removed. I'm planning some other changes, but will post them in the mod section in time. And here some pics of my black beauty :

Maybe I overlooked it, but I can't find any topic nor any info on the www concerning a replacement of the oem tail light by let's say a clear lens led tail light. The wiki has some info on the enertia, but not on the empulse. Several models can be found on amazon and ebay, but which is the right one for my brammo?

Note: I'm not looking for a model with integrated signal lights, just the model with tail-, stop- and license plate lights.

 ::)I've been riding motorcycles since 2004, starting with a 1996 600cc suzuki bandit, which was a good, but relatively heavy (in terms of weight) bike to start with. After a year or 2, switched to a 2003 sv1000s which I rode for about 10 years. But in recent years I only use my bike for commuting puposes, so I was looking for something a little less powerfull, more manoeuvrable. I actually had set my mind on a ktm 690 duke or a 796 hypermotard. While sifting the internet a stumbled upon an article on the 2013 brammo empulse r and it caught my immediat attention. Never cared much for electric bikes, but this thing was sexy as hell. So I went on looking for more info, reading bunches of articles, reviews and stumled upon this forum.

To make a long story short, after a test drive on a 2014 empulse, I immediately bought the demo bike which had a considerable discount.

Now after lurking this forum for some time, I decided it's time to show good manners and introduce myself.
So, here I am, a new member amongst the dying breed of brammo motorcycle owners.
