Leisurely 2 minute lap of Jennings GP on the all electric Brammo Empulse R. Camera was adjusted for my sport bike, so you don't get to see too much of the Brammo, but you get an idea of what it sounds like."

He sure did. That's turn 8 and it's a favorite place to low side on the exit because people get in there hot and it's a quick transition to get into turn 9. Turn 9 is the tightest turn of the track and there are a ton of divots in the tarmac because of it. I may have put one in myself.  :o

Brammo...we NEED rearsets. :)

Brammo...we NEED rearsets. :)

We've got rearsets, but one problem... they were designed for the TTX and no provision for the side stand - as everyone knows real race bikes don't have side stands.  8)



We do plan on revisiting the design and coming up with a side stand option, but no immediate solution.  You can always just hang off the bike like a monkey and trade body position for lean angle, but you do reach a point where you do need the rear sets.
