The 2016 Empulse TT is the first ever fully road-legal electric motorbike offered by Victory Motorcycles. This bike is based on the Brammo Empulse R, and is a statement of intent from Victory, which took over the Brammo electric motorbike business.
This bike offers a fully adjustable suspension with an inverted fork and the one rear shock, and is also equipped with dual-disk brakes at the front and lightweight aluminum rims. Powered by a Permanent Magnet AC Induction electric motor peaking at 54 horsepower and 61 pounds-feet of torque, this bike is extremely versatile and can be used for sporty riding as well as casual commuting.
Indeed the Empulse TT caters to people with a need for speed as much as it does to people simply looking to get around to run errands.
