http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/05/2012-brammo-empulse-r-06-635x496.jpg Brammo has suffered some major setbacks in getting its latest Empulse electric motorcycle to market, but the company has stuck to its revised launch date: it unveiled the 2013 model last night. The key specs haven’t changed during the delay – we’re still looking at a six-speed gearbox, a max speed of 100 mph and a fast-recharge time of 3.5 hours – but the price has jumped from $14,000 to $16,995. There’s also the Empluse R, a more premium model that will go on sale for $18,995 in June. The main difference between the base model and the R is the material: the Empulse has a plastic body, while the R uses carbon fiber. Check out the full presser below the break – and if you’re holding out for the 2013 Empulse, the gallery pics of the R will have to tide you over till the base model launches early next year.
