Realized it was the same guy that let one of the Moto-vloggers I watch test drive it too.

Guy might be too nice letting people ride it. Should check qualifications or let something lol. Poor dude gets his bike scratched sharing the Brammo Smile.

Wow.   :o

Although the end of the vlogger's video is good.  It's fun hearing him run through all the expletives to describe how much fun he's having.   ;D

The test drive begins at 11:07 for about 6 minutes til the end.

Brammo should promote the heck of of that clip: ya gotta good ole boy who loves him his V8's sayin the Empulse is badass. That's some gold right there.

That's a great argument for a) torque and b) helmet.

Another lesson for all of us: hit the kill switch before trying to lift the bike upright. (See 0:14)

I usually start guest riders off in 3rd and Normal mode. Then up the power from there.

Yea the bike looked familiar I figured it was someone's on the forums. How bad was the damage? I saw you have the expensive Brammo sliders on it and cringed that they might be scraped to hell. Definitely start people in a higher gear next time. Good on you for spreading the Brammo smile tho.

it didn't even hit the sliders...just the shifter got bend and a little road rash on the end mirror bolt!  LOL

that will teach me.

My race car was there, so the wrap guy brought it up and I hadn't seen it so rode the Empulse.  I bring the Empulse every once and a while to C&C because bike guys show up and most never knew that this bike exist!

Consider me officially jealous of your rides man. Glad your bike didn't take it badly. They need to allow us to buy the shifters in bulk. Mines been bent a few times.  If anything he sure as hell took off some of your left side chicken strip lol.
