Nice video (and article) on a test ride of the Brammo electric motorcycle by the Earth2Tech web site.

It's not a test ride by a professional motorcycle tester, but more one by a newbie to motorcycles, so she asks different questions.

Interesting!

Here are two videos, one of the prologue, the other of Day 1. You'll see why they say the Romaniacs makes grown men cry!
