Just four months after Polaris Industries took control of the Brammo electric motorcycle company, its Victory Motorcycles brand has unveiled its first battery-powered bike.

The Empulse TT is mostly an update of a Brammo model of the same name. Unlike the cruisers that Victory is known for, it features a sportbike style.

When it goes on sale later this year for $19,999, it will be the first electric bike offered by a major, traditional motorcycle brand in a segment that’s currently dominated by electric specialist Zero Motorcycles.

The 470-pound Empulse TT has a 54 hp electric motor with 61 lb-ft of torque, and a 10.4 kilowatt-hour battery pack that typically provides 57-100 miles of range, according to Victory, depending on how it’s used. You plug it in right where the gas tank is on a conventional motorcycle, and its compatible with the same 240-volt chargers electric cars use, which can provide a full charge in under four hours.
