Looks good...personally I prefer the more simple and elegant black fairing...




but I understand the "green" angle....

Wow, that's a damn fine looking bike. Lovin the green paint job and the new tail fairing. Not that the old one didnt look fantastic. Weight reduction measure possibly?

yes I was going to mention how much more I liked the new seat...but I wasn't 100% sure it didn't look different due to angle of bike and bike being raised and I didn't want to look like a fool :)

Love the seat, prefer the black fairing, but that is easy to change

It's a really beautiful bike, and I'd probably pass out if they offered the production Empulse in a repro paint scheme.

I'll be watching Infineon really closely.  The Laguna Seca situation last year was understandable given the fledgling nature of the program, but I'm looking to these races to reassure myself that development's on track.  I guess that Empulse production delay *did* get to me a bit after all.

So how did the Friday test run go?

And did Brammo have any desire to run a modded Plus at the ttxgp75, or even a stock Empulse 6.0?

Well I see on the Twitter that the time was 1:56 in practice...and that is maybe the fastest lap time in last years race...

So good job....

So the follow up is, how did the other teams do?

And more importantly, how did the bike feel? And how was the power drain ( enough to do 9 laps easily at top speed?). And any evidence of "power hiccup" at 100%? Any concerns with overheating or demagnetizing the motor?


Gavin


(and if I'm asking tons of questions...where is my Plus? When is the Empulse giveaway--and will that have to wait for 2012 anyways? What are the specs for the Engage models? Do I have clean socks in my dresser or do I have to get up and do some laundry? Etc etc)

Wow! Vids and green scheme look awesome. Not sure about upsweep tail yet. Could be camera angle or is just a little too much air between it and tire. Black looks good but my drool decorates the red rocket! :o. Still want my mount to have the street legal red fairing(maybe that green if I look at it long enough!). I'm really excited about the IET's upcoming marriage to Empulse and the ensuing fun.
Did I say I was excited? Santa DOES listen you know..........
Cheers for Brammo at Infineon!!
