It has double the range of the original model at only a $1000 price increase. Check it out here:

Here is another short article about the new Brammo Enertia Plus. Not much new, but it does have several nice photos of the new model, showing the range of colors available. See it here:

Hi Richard

sounds all exciting. how long have you been riding one ? looking for more real life feedback of these bikes over weeks of experience and not just reviews by the mags.

cheers

PS
I send Brammo about 20 emails to learn if they sell over here -- other than Hong Kong --- as in Oz eventually --- to no avail and no reply.

My Zero is ordered now -- they do respond and now sell here.

No, I bought an Electric Motorsport GPR-S right before Brammo dropped their price from $12K to $8K and put the bike on the market. I really wish I had bought a Brammo. My EMS GPR-S has caused me nothing but grief and lots of money. I managed to get 1500 miles out of my "upgraded" model, before it started eating  batteries and became a money trap. I, and an electrical engineer friend, are now trying to figure out what is wrong with it.

It would have been nice to have bought a fully-developed electric motorcycle from a company that has the resources to provide customer and warranty after-sales service. I really have fun riding the bike when it is working, but I would much rather be riding than fixing the bike, as I am a rider not a EV hobbyist.  I might add that my EMS/Native electric motorcycle dealer went broke and closed their doors just about the time my bike melted down. There might be a connection there.

Hey, Brammo Lovers, just wanted to share a reply to an inquiry I made with Brammo.  This is from a March 29th 2011 e-mail reply: 

Thank you for your interest in Brammo and the Brammo Enertia Plus motorcycle.  Currently we are still commissioning manufacturing facilities and establishing the supply chain, so predicting build dates for Enertia Plus pre-orders is not yet possible.

Unfortunately, the Enertia cannot be upgraded to the same battery pack as the Enertia Plus.

Hope this helps someone. 
I was really interested in the Enertia Plus's extended range, but I don't have the patience to wait for it.

I have been trying to become a dealer but i did not even get a reply that long.

PATHETIC!!!!

The problem is the bikes are too expensive for them to get enough orders. Maybe when batteries get cheaper in 5 years they will suceed?
