Rider Profile

Best For	This is a purpose-built race machine best suited to experienced riders already comfortable with sportbike dynamics and electric powertrain characteristics.
Purpose	Built specifically for track use and competitive electric racing, with an emphasis on cornering precision, instant torque delivery, and lightweight high-end components rather than street practicality.
Rider Fit	A relatively light dry weight combined with a 250-section rear tyre and premium suspension demands an athletic, committed riding style typical of sport-focused machines.
Character	The single-speed-feel of the electric motor combined with a 6-speed gearbox gives it a unique, seamless yet aggressive delivery, rewarding smooth, precise inputs on track.
Not Ideal For	This bike is not suited for riders seeking long-distance touring comfort, passenger carrying, off-road capability, or everyday commuting convenience.

Units

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 810mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with both feet flat on the 2012 Brammo Empulse RR Race Bike, with a relaxed knee angle of around 125 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: estimated (wheelbase estimated from this category's typical bike, not this model's own spec). Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
