controls that channel the wind to maximize comfort “while a
padded passenger backrest, three-position adjustable floorboards
and dual zone heated seats give your passengers the control they
deserve. An air-adjustable rear suspension further aids rider and
passenger comfort, while ABS and new LED lighting helps keep
your mind at ease.”
2016 Empulse TT
“Twist and go”
Vision Tour
“Uniquely American, uniquely Victory”
“What if you cast off all convention and set out to build the
ultimate American touring bike without any rules or restrictions on
how that bike had to look, feel or act?” Victory say the result
would be their Vision – “America’s most comfortable touring bike.”
Features include wind tunnel derived, frame-mounted full-coverage
fairing, extra-rigid cast aluminum frame, air-adjustable rear
suspension, and four-valve overhead-cam Freedom 106 engine,
standard ABS and cruise control, a heated seat and heated grips,
and 29 gallons of storage capacity.
“We’re equal opportunity speed freaks,” say Victory. “Whether it
burns hydrocarbons or kilowatt-hours, we don’t care as long as
it’s fast. The Empulse TT is fast where it matters most. Built on
the same platform that claimed a spot on the podium at both
the Isle of Man and the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb, it
accelerates up to 100+ mph and has a 10.4 kWh battery
module that can fully charge in 3.9 hours.” Features include
sport-tuned inverted front forks and an adjustable suspension.
Victory say this is “the only electric bike equipped with a gearbox –
a six-speed transmission – although shifting is entirely optional as it
also operates in a twist-and-go mode for maximum convenience.”
