At the heart of the 2012 Brammo Enertia sport motorcycle, Brammo features a purpose-built liquid-cooled electric configuration. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 17.4 HP (12.7 kW) at 4,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 40 Nm (29.5 lb-ft) at 1,450 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a automatic gearbox.
On the scales, the Enertia measures 147 kg (324 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.12 HP/kg (8.45 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 813 mm (32 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance.
