Brammo Enertia Discussion > Brammo Enertia

Operation: HogWatch

(1/6) > >>

Brammofan:
Spinning off of FreepZ's thread here, and Phantom's generous offer to pay a visit to the Massachusetts dealer (and possibly Rhode Island), I've decided it's time to organize a brigade of Brammo Owners Forum members to perform dangerous reconnaissance missions that, collectively, I have dubbed, "Operation Hogwatch."

The mission of Operation Hogwatch is to infiltrate the enemy visit your local Harley-Davidson/Brammo dealer and inquire about the Brammo Enertia for sale.

Here is what we'd like to know (thanks again to FreepZ for his detailed report which provides a great framework for all of this):
1. The Enertia on display: What condition is it in? Any visible damage? What is the state of charge at the point you first encounter it (assuming the dash is on).
2. Test ride: Do they allow it? If not, why not?  Any issues with the ride?
3. Information from salesman: Does the salesman seem to know what he/she is talking about? Any attempt to upsell you to a Harley? Any blatantly wrong information?

Feel free to add more questions/areas of inquiry as you see fit.  

I'd suggest that, on your visit, you play the part of someone who is not in the elite brain trust represented by the members of this forum.  Rather, you are someone who heard something about an electric motorcycle and thought it might be something you could ride back and forth to work.  

Here are the dealers.  I left the "old timers" (Best Buy, Hollywood Electrics) on here, just in case anyone wants to visit and report back.  We've had other reports that Best Buy doesn't do very well unless you get the right salesman, and that Hollywood Electrics has excellent knowledge of the product, but feel free to visit and report back, here.  I've taken the liberty of putting Phantom's name next to the Massachusetts dealership and Rhode Island.  As people let me know their availability, I will add them next to the dealership's name.

Let us know if you're willing to take this on - I think this is the kind of thing that Brammo would be interested in knowing, and it would certainly help anyone who might be considering purchasing an electric motorcycle.

EmpulseRider:
I would love to help out here but Brammo has no stores even remotely close to Denver. Would really like to hear news about Brammo opening a store here in Colorado. They would sell well here considering the tax breaks we get for EVs. I have submitted 2 fantastic dealerships that Brammo could look into. Hopefully Brammo is listening / working on it.

Mr.Rodgers:
I can probably check out H-D of Washington.  I haven't been able to get much time to myself recently so it may be a few weeks before I make it over there, but, then again, it is right across the river from me

05Sultan:
Did not know Suderia West in S.F. was a dealer. Hope I get some solid info on Empulse soon 'cause that Victory Vegas 8Ball looks really,really, I mean REALLY nice :P
 I think there are 2 HD stores in Antioch/Oakley area. Have they been approached? Should be more along Hwy 4/East Bay commute stomp. Any action in this(my) area? :)

Brammofan:
Ah, Mr. Rodgers... I saw from the Brammo Owners Forum Map that you were pretty close to the Washington, Maryland HD dealer.  Thanks for volunteering - when you can - we look forward to your report.
