Go back into my podcasting archives you will see that the last five or six episodes were recorded at the end of 2013 but not published until almost a year later in late 2014. It was a result of a very big push I made in December of 2013 to record a bunch of shows. … Continue reading Episode 33: Zero Owner’s Roundtable from December of 2013 →…

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Later than late. I have given up being able to upload podcasts on the boat, in the hotel, or in the airport. It just doesn’t work. And then I have been distracted since I got home. Either way this is a really good interview with Kenyon from December of 2013. Enjoy!Av ttxgpfan

And here is the (hopefully) much-anticipated part two of the interview with Shelina. What a way to bring in 2015, no? In this last part we talk a bit about her new Brammo Enertia and about her new motorcycle training school. She mentions a discount for listeners, but please remember this was recorded over a … Continue reading Episode 31: Interview …

Hello again, everyone, and Happy New Year! I trust you all had a Merry Christmas. Well here is part 1 of an Interview with Shelina Moreda recorded the beginning of December 2013.

Little did I realize, until just now, that it has been over a year since the last podcast. This is the last hour and a half of my interview with Jeff, Brammo Empulse owner and EV evangelist recorded late last fall.

Jeff clowns around at the pump creating one of the funniest photos from the then freshly (and finally) delivered Empluses. In part 1 of my interview with Jeff we talk about his buying experience and bringing his baby home for the first time. But in true ESBK style we manage to talk about Aerostich, beards, … Continue reading ESBK Studios: Episode 2…

My way overdue post Ilse of Man interview with Kyle.Av ttxgpfan

This is a 2 hour podcast, so break it up into chunks. But the first 26 minutes are a review of Laguna but mostly a preview of Indy this weekend with results from QP1 of both Indy and Oshersleben. The rest is Shelina going over Pikes Peak, REFUEL, and her crash at Laguna. Enjoy.Av ttxgpfan

I get the low down on Shelina’s long weekend race not only the TTX, but also the Empulse RR13 . It was an up and down weekend for Shelina (literally). But she came home with a 5th and sixth place out doing her teammate yet again in placements (ignoring that she’s admittedly 10 seconds a … Continue reading ESBK Studios Special: Post AFM Round 3 with…

So last Sunday night I was a call-in guest on KCBQ Radio AM 1170’s “Ride-On Racing Roundupout” with Dave Stall & Alex Plewniak of San Diego, CA. They have a lean towards the green technologies and asked me to be on after a fun conversation with the co-hoast Alex Plewniak the other night.

Interviews with Jeff Smith of SRI about the EV1 desert racer and Briam Wismann of Brammo about the past weekend battling the gas bikes head on with the Empulse RRs, the Empulse TTX, and Engage Prototype. And some soap-boxing about a serious subject at the end. https://ttxgpmatters.files.wordpress.com/2013/05/esbk-studios-special-post-race-with-jeff…

Shelina gives us the rundown on Sunday’s happenings, from killing it on the TTX going from 14th to 7th, to a 4th place on a completely unprepared, yet surprisingly up to the task, prototype Engage. And as much insight into the going ons with the RRs that she could provide. And as usual I ask … Continue reading ESBK Studios Special: Shelina Moreda W…

Shelina and I talk about the first day of practice for her and the team running with the AFM at Sonoma Raceway.

Literally a year after my first interview with him posted I have Brian on again, and we talk about the finally being delivered Empulse, aerodynamics, charging (again), dealers, and Daytona. Really good conversation. Episode 16 Interview with Brian Wismann of BrammoAv ttxgpfan

From: http://mugeneuro.com/motorcycle-racing/mugen-shinden-at-2012-tt/ I believe this is a must hear interview, and certainly not because of my vaguely mediocre hosting skills, but because of Mr. Whittamore. We talk about how the program came about, why they decided to do it and how they benefit, how they are not a re-badged Honda program, and how …

This episode is a roundtable discussion with current electric motorcycle owners. The audio quality isn’t the best, Richard and I went off on our own tangent a bit, and I need to talk less, but all in all everyone seemed to have a good time, and I think there is some good insight here. Enjoy. … Continue reading ESBK Studios: Roundtable #2 Elmoto Own…

But before you Brammo folks start burning me in effigy (if you could manage doing such a thing out side in Oregon), I have said from the beginning that if my (imaginary) Empulse came with without clip-ons, …

And we’re back on the “air”. I recorded this interview shortly after I got back from Daytona, but it is full of great information about Zero’s racing efforts, and their new 2013 line up, and maybe even the immediate future of elmoto dirtbike racing.
