Title: Victory Electric Race Bike Stolen?
Post by: Firehawk068 on July 20, 2015, 10:11:53 AM
I just happened upon this article while searching for something else.

Seems it was posted this past Friday.

The Electric Bike That was raced at the Isle of Man TT was stolen from Brammo Engineering.

I was fortunate enough to see it up close. They had it on display during Fan-Fest at this years Pikes peak event.

The stealth in the background looks familiar.   :diablo:

The web page now lists an update that the bike has been found, and returned.

The scumbag had already started to disassemble it to try and sell parts off it.  :diablo:
