Yeah, I wanted to see something about the Empulse too but I guess we will have to wait. I would not worry about it though... I have faith that they WILL go to production in May, and we WILL see deliveries in July. Just have to be (more) patient...

Brammo isn't saying anything at all about the Empulse. I asked if they could at least tell me the available colors (so I can start scoping out some matching gear), and even that's a secret.

Never any harm in asking…….
As you know everything is under wraps at the moment including the colors.
Sorry I can’t be more helpful….. but not long now :)
 
Kind regards and best wishes

Argh! Perhaps tomorrow there will be news... perhaps...

I've been going on the working theory that they aren't going to stomp on the Plus's Day in the Sun by upstaging it with Empulse news. 

The Plus deserves a full news cycle, news articles, and buzz all to itself before there is an Empulse news dump that knocks the Plus out of the spotlight. 

Is it working?  Well, I personally know much more about the Plus than I ever did before....

I hope that's not true. There was no new plus info in the last E+ newsletter, I would hope Brammo isn't waiting until June to release Empulse info.

I wouldn't worry to much. I agree with the other comment about the Empulse stealing the Enertia Plus's thunder. Interesting about the new battery chemistry and using 2 battery packs instead of 6. I imagine them hard at work most nights and on the weekends testing new battery configurations. They could be using a similar battery confirmation scaled appropriately for our favorite future bike  ::)! I say the more range the better! I recall hearing about Brammos design philosophy is like the computer industry-put the latest and greatest technology in the bikes and people will buy them all the more. That could be another reason why they've been so quiet about it.

Empulse will almost certainly use the same cell chemistry, if not the exact same cells as Enertia Plus.

I have no doubt there are many sleepless nights going on at Brammo HQ. They want these bikes out even more than we do.. if that's possible : P
