Brammo Enertia TTR electric racer officially unveiled with Best Buy sponsorship

We've already brought you pictures of and specs for the Brammo Enertia TTR, but now we can bring you high-res images (click the photos above to expand) and more details on what lies beneath the shiny green fairing. The TTR shares the upcoming Brammo Enertia's extruded aluminum frame, but upgrades the battery capacity from 3.1 to 8.1kWh as well as fitting more race-oriented suspension. That regular Enertia will go on sale at Best Buy in the very near future.

"We could have started from scratch and thrown a whole lot of money at the project," explained Craig Bramscher, Brammo's CEO to Wired.com. "But rather than go all out, we wanted to show the heritage of the Enertia and show where it is headed."

Brammo plans to release two additional models later this year, which could include technology from the TTR.

In addition to the extra battery capacity and more powerful motor -- good for 90mph -- the TTR gains custom Traxxion Dynamics forks, radial Brembos, an Elka monoshock and forged magnesium Marchesini wheels. The whole thing weighs in at 360lbs.

"Our goal is to be the best handling bike and the one that goes through the curves the fastest so we've got the highest average speed," says Bramscher. The TTR is likely to be far slower in a straight line than both the Mission One, the street version of which is said to hit 150mph, and the MotoCzysz E1pc with it's 10 battery packs and three motors. We've already seen the E1pc hit 122mph on a dyno.

Range is a concern to all the competitors in the TTXGP, the inaugural zero emissions motorcycle race on the Isle of Man. ""Hopefully 37-1/2 miles," jokes Bramscher when asked about the range, in which case it'd need to coast the final 2/10 of a mile to the Mountain Course's finish line.
