For those who are Earth-conscious but have a need for speed, the Brammo Enertia motorcycle is the product for you. The 18-horsepower bike weighs just 280 pounds and is powered by an electric engine whose lithium-ion battery can be recharged by plugging it into a regular 110-volt socket for four hours. Owners can
recharge for pennies, compared to the cost of filling up on gasoline. And some of its parts are made from recycled materials. The company hopes the bike will go mainstream, and began offering it at Best Buy last year.
