Energica Ego Electric SUPERBIKE vs Ninja H2, 2020 S1000RR & BMW M6!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 лип 2019
- I met up with my Good Buddy and Professional Motorcycle Racer Corey Alexander at Hudson Valley Motorcycles in New York, to check out the 2019 Energica Ego electric motorcycle. This is a beautiful motorcycle with a lot of power (145 hp/107kW) and an extreme amount of torque (144 lbf.ft/195.24 N.m). We tested this power and torque against my 2016 Kawasaki Ninja H2, BMW S1000RR M, and a BMW M6 automobile that just happened to cross my path! You might be surprised at the outcome! These electric motorcycle are unique, and while the sound is nowhere near that of the Kawasaki Ninja H2 or BMW S1000RR they do have their very own (and very impressive) fighter jet sound! Enjoy the video...

as soon as Ib was smoked by that car they instantly lost a sale 😂
Yep!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Jimmy RIGGED hehehe great call. I raced a Tesla recently, just beat it but I felt some sick come up in my mouth how close it was!
Maybe it was an M6 ib ?
@@saraw6446 shouldn't matter. A decent litre bike would smoke most cars in a sprint
@@AmangRaymond I do know that, nobody said this bike was as fast as a litre bike,.not yet, - This year's TT zero winner averaged 121mph, about 15 less than the superbikes but 30mph faster than 10yrs ago
My comment was just a joke though, about 650ib's old BMW
Everthing was all nice and smooth about loving the electric bike but....
18:09 it was at this moment, he knew he f*ckd up... 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣.......... 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
That car was gone
@@uphill248
Needs more voltage, and a better cooling system if the motor overheats easier from the higher voltage. And the speed limiter needs to be removed. If it can't be, I'd replace the controller with a high voltage, high amp universal controller, for homemade EVs.
Its restricked to 150 mph man
Confirmed I won’t buy one for sure
LIked the video as soon as I saw the pound to kilogram conversion! Thank you.
You're welcome ✔️✔️✔️
You know what man your channel is bloody fantastic, I found it a couple of months ago whilst searching UA-cam for Ducati vids. By far the best I've found from over the pond. Your presentation is spot on and your love for bikes shines through in every video even this electric one (which I'd love to have a go on btw) peace from the Northwest UK.
Thanks so much for the compliment man!!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Had me rollin’ when you went for the smack down on the M6. Awesome vid, love the channel, hope to ride with ya some day!
Thank you!
Sounds like a jet spooling up. Imagine if you could decat one of these bad boys. Mental. 🤣
ғɪʟʟ 1ɴ ᴛ҉ ʜ3 ʙʟᴀɴᴋs have you seen Jay Leno’s Jet Bike?
Dude! Great video! You are doing good things sir!
I love how you have to open the bike up and expose that cooling fan to the elements when charging. And having it right on the top so it can absorb as much rain as possible is frankly a master stroke of pure genius.
Good Job ib! Up until this video this bike wasn't on my radar. I didn't know it existed! Thanks!
I was lucky enough to ride the Ego, so much fun! Great review Ib, Corey and the crew over at HVMC are the best!
Thanks John. Yes, Corey and his family are really nice.
So the number one reason to buy one is the fun factor (as I thought) allthough all that fun may disapear after geting smoked by a car or all of your friends with gas engine. At least if they were cheaper to buy,that way to get your money back riding almost free ,but u get your money back after like 15-20 years.
Honestly I know that electric bikes are the future and I think I'm going to be ok with it. I like the sound and the instant torque. And I think over time as they have a longer range and faster, lighter package they are gonna be a lot of fun.
I agree Campisiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
I rode three zero bikes on Tuesday, believe me, electric bikes are amazing
@Zx10r Rocks nah you wont. I'm coming from cars. every single one of them 6 speed and over 400whp between each. shifting adds nothing you'll miss when you get to enjoy sheer speed with less consequences and actually get to enjoy the scenery and torque. every time you floor a gas engine, you have to wonder if that's the last time you'll do it. because things blow up. valves fall out of tolerance.. these bikes are like turning on an electric drill. just floor it everywhere, f* it! and then go home and recharge and you have a full tank tomorrow! instead of regretting that you now have to spend extra money on accelerated oil changes, valve adjustments, or replacement engines because yours blew up having fun.
The more fun you have on gas, the more money goes down. you eliminate this almost completely with a toy bike like this that you can actually enjoy without consequence. not to mention the cost of actual fuel consumption itself.
Jaret I watch your videos...men...
good content👍
yes! once they perfect solid state battery technology these will become hot sales for sure. i will definitely buy one then
That is a cool bike, and a great video, thanks man. Bet you get one. Highway cruising shots especially were awesome, seemed to convey the experience really well.
Nice vid Ib your rocking it with the vids lately 👌
Thanks so much man!!! Your channel is GREAT too 💪💪💪💪💪💪
Police wouldn’t hear you coming!
Or leaving 😏
What is this organization that your talking about. Lol
Energica EGO is really Awesome innovative concept that I ever seen in my life!!!
It is the best looking EV motorcycle on the market. I've been tracking these developments for a while.
Love to see you redo this with the 2020 Ego Plus to see if it is different. It weighs less with a little more power.
It’s good to see how far the technology has come, but it’s obviously got a long way to go to be competitive. I do like the sound more than I thought I would though!
love it ... you should get a LS-218 "Lightning" for your garage ;o)
Our great grandkids are going to think we were idiots for having to put gasoline in our vehicles.
Gasoline generate better sound
There will probably be two types of grandkids: the ones who totally get why we had vehicles that ran on gasoline, and may want one themselves, and the ones who think we were idiots for owning personal vehicles at all.
Whatever! lol :P
Seb W what’s gasoline? Oh petrol. ;)
It's going to happen sooner than many think. If you are young enough you will most likely be around to see it happen.
WOW’ Very cool bike😎 as always well edited ib
I particularly enjoy the music drone clips😊
Thanks man!!! ✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️
Nice video! Thanks!
The fact that I can speed on the highway without attracting any attention because of exhaust notes is the only reason why I will want this especially at night when there's no traffic usually a cop hears your exhaust before he sees you
Love, the sound of it , it has a futuristic sound. Reminds of movies from the 90's
✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️✔️
This looks cool for people that just want to hop on something and cruise around / have fun and don't care about shifting. I like the futuristic whine it makes. Probably going to be some real crazy bad ass electric bikes in the future.
Look at them now 😜
That 2 exhaust sounds with the ego revving sound are the best sounds I ever heard. So loud and neat then other is Quiet and futuristic.
Those are some fun looking roads around there. I used to hate the idea of everything becoming electric but if they can get that weight down and keep the power the same I'd gladly trade in one of my gas bikes. I got to take the Harley livewire for a spin and I'm not a Harley guy at all, but it was way more fun that I'd like to admit. Great content as always buddy. Looking forward to seeing what else you do with the V4R and new S1KRR!
Thanks Darwin.
650ib is Energica. The accent is on the second e and not to the i.
You are always TOP
Great videos. Love your energy
Thanks Bro 💯
Great video and great editing 👍
Thanks man!
I'm keeping a close eye on the lightning strike carbon edition bike at just under 20k with 120HP and 180 lb-ft with only weighing in at 485 lb. This bike is gonna be a monster.
Sounds so sick. Unfortunately I feel like if you aren't in a big city, it isnt practical for hitting up charging stations.
A Zillion BRAVO to you! love it!
Thank you ❤️
That sound is amazing
It sounds like a flight taking off at higher RPM, I really like engine grunts like any Kawasaki bike, any way If we get an electric bike like is it will be absolutely fun. it just smoked one moment I thought it has got H2, my heart broke a little, but what to say electric is the future. Great Bike.
It sounds like a jet engine, which is always better than any internal combustion engine. My next motorcycle will definitely be electric.
You should have done a 0-60mph race with the other ice motorcycles. This is where this motorcycle would have shown its potential.
1. it does not sound liike a jet engine. 2. you have never heard of husqvarna nuda....
Mayby the tech but the sound never gets old
@@battyman42069 Ofcourse, but I live in India, and we can use less of that sound. One engine by itself sounds good, but a 100 in traffic sounds like madness.
Any of the 1000 will hit at least 180stock this things tops at 150 less than a 600. 0 to 60 is slower also. Its heavier, and like 3 times the price. ....I dont like
My $5,500 07 r1 would smash that $20,000 bike easily.
@@jaymathews7161 your average liter bike would get crushed in a 0-60 race (also, the latest model goes 0-60 in 2.6 seconds) , ofc an ice bike is faster thru the twisties (a modern one, not a 07 R1) and comparing a 15 year old used bike to a new one by price is a pretty twisted metric (not saying the enrgica is cheap, but it's not 3 times it's competitors)
This is a rocket on wheels man, nicest looking piece of machine I have laid eyes on.
Also the design... So beauty
Nice!!! Good thing those croton cops weren't there....I love blasting over that bridge too!
New exhaust should make it sound better. 😁
I like that 😂😂
An some spark plugs, decent carb...... etc etc...
Duffer its electric bike no need exhaust
@@Umarvt whooosh!
Playing cards in the spokes.
Cool bike! Thanks for the video ib. quality as always. The borg said it best.....’resistance is futile!’ Battery’s are here for a while. 😂
I like the fact it's so quiet. It allows you to relax and be at one with nature
I agree
At 300 mph...
Smooth rides+ smooth riders= smooth video. Really liked the bike. Shame that it would take me 2 lifetime to be able to afford it. Yeah, I live in a shite country... ^^
Btw, Corey would't lose to that bmw driver.
You're right, Corey would have slayed the M6
I love that manufacturers are moving towards electrifying motorcycles, I think it open up a new market of potential rides and I like seing new electric bikes. However, being a rider myself, I am worried that the lack of noise could make riding even more dangerous because before they could hear you, but couldn't see you, now that can't see nor hear you so as a rider, I have to be incredible careful.
That's a good point, that's something that will have to be looked into by the bicycle manufacturers, maybe they could build a sound generator into the EV bikes construction and make the noise it generates customisable plus a basic engine noises as standard.
im in love with those bikes of yours
So awesome video as always 650 ! It’s good to know that at 6’3” I would be comfortable on it and that it is heavy and slow. It’s also good to know that it has a 100 mile reach. Another thing is charging the motorcycle up. In the South Eastern United States, I haven’t noticed a lot of charging stations. So for me, I’ll give it a medium to low score, a 4 out of 1-10. Thank You
You can actually buy a charging station for your house for not too expensive so you can charge it at your own house, if that helps
@@goodgamerguy0234 you can't b serious.. oh yeah sure ill blow 20 grand to appease my fake ass attempt to stop a fake ass climate change agenda oh yeah and yeah I also blow a bunch of money on a charging station give me a f****** break you'd have to be a complete moron to buy into this electrical vehicle b******* whether it's a car bike it doesn't matter it's all b*******
I guess u missed a shift while chasing the bmw😊
Can you upload more of the h2 it’s a beast and I want to see top end races on it
Yes, coming soon!
An Energica ran 163 at the Texas Mile in October. First time at the track. Nicely built bike.
Ohhhh ibbb I loved the reaction to the m6 getting ya lol man I wish u were on the h2r
Me too man!
Beginning of the video, I was legit wondering how you got your name, and damn, you answered it out of nowhere 😳
Why is the channel called that?
Slightly lighter than Honda Goldwing.
same weight as a bmw k16
250 pounds lighter
Yep, GL 1800 865lbs dry.
Or the space shuttle :-)
I am very amazed in your channel sir... God speed ..
now i know why people keep asking me about ego.. everytime i stop at traffic there will be someone ask where did i get ego? im using modenas pulsar rs200, and that ego facelift really similar with pulsar rs200! Anyway great video man, Super perfect review and easy to understand every spec for bike! definitely sub!!
Yeah a whiny cat is what I want to here when riding a motorcycle...
645 pounds for the energica..geesh. i knew it would be heavier but damn lol
Yep. I'll take the R1 thank you very much.
My model 3 is 4k lbs
That is absolutely ridiculous,that's way too heavy for me to even waste my time with.
My performance Model S is almost 5k lbs, yet still quicker than 99.9% of anything rolling on 4 wheels. Can it be even quicker? Of course, but what do you compromise. Cargo space, safety, comfort. That’s the purpose of a Roadster second gen.. though safety and comfort still won’t be compromised.. just less space. A performance model 3 is a nice balance of comfort, safety, and cargo, and adds better handling due to less mass.
Bikes have far less space to pack a lot of battery, so it’s harder to match what can be done with a car or a truck. Is there still a reason to build an electric bike? I think so. I’m a huge fan of sub 400lb bikes.. two of my personal favorites being a 400GSXR and the FZ-07, so I’m intrigued when considering an electric bike knowing that they weigh in a hundred, two hundred+ more from the start. I like the twisties, so I gotta know the turn in, braking, and handling feels just as confident before I’m ready to switch my bike out to electric.
In terms of acceleration, there’s quicker electric bikes than the Ego, but the Energica is employing some additional safety on their bikes that other electrics aren’t, adding weight. A lot to consider as safety can’t be overlooked.
I’ll be test riding an Energica and a Zero for the first time next week to see how it compares to the 600’s and 689 I ride now and will leave my impressions here.
It was fun riding with you. Glad you enjoyed the Energica
If you would have titled this Tesla motorcycle or something like that you would have gotten a lot more views on new that you just posted it but the title isn't that good for it this is awesome this is insane
It's An italian bike
Well I'd say you were right, but you're wrong. The Lightning LS-218 is the two-wheeled Tesla.
Teslas however are actually fast unlike this bike.
Feels heavy? Lol wait till u see the price tag
Awesome video.
Great Video!
I would buy one.
Me: Electric bikes are amazing!
Friends: Well....battery don't last long tho...
Me: Electric bikes are also fast, responsive!
Friends: Well...but they are kinda heavy....so....
Me: Electric bikes can be fun too!
Friends: well... they sounds gay...
Me....
😭😭😭😂😂😂😂😂
You need better friends sir lol
Its Sounds Futuristic tho..
That gay sound ? It's stealth mode.
I think bikes are pretty energy efficient as they are. I would surely obsess on the batter level on longer rides and would have to plan around battery stations. For 20k nah.
My sentiment exactly
bikes are very much NOT energy efficient, a typical cx for a sedan is 0.30 or lower, for your average superbike it's about 0.60
@@itzFYEB Drag coefficient is only one part of energy efficiency, and it isn't even the most important part. Since the vast, overwhelming majority of driving is single-occupancy, a small displacement bike will use far less fuel than a small displacement car and produce far fewer emissions.
@@QarthCEO at lower speeds, yes, at highway speeds, not quite, a small 2 seater car going at 85 mph will not use more fuel than a bike of comparable displacement even if it's much heavier and has a higher frontal area
@@itzFYEB Comparable displacement? You think we should compare a 2 liter car to what? A 1.8 liter Goldwing? Not exactly apples to apples. The smallest engine car is going to be a large displacement bike. If you're going to talk small compact cars at highway speeds, then you have to talk about small compact bikes, something like a Suzuki Burgman 400, which will easily cruise at highway speeds getting 70mpg all day long, a feat no Corolla is coming anywhere near.
BTW, I noticed how you moved the goal post from a SEDAN to a 2 seater... which 2 seater car are you suggesting gets better mpg than a sub 500cc bike?
Nice bike heck yeah I would buy one. Hey that bimer is a sleeper for sure
The test I was expecting !!, very nice bike, now you have to try the Lightning LS 218 !!
That Ninja H2 tho.. I love it.
It's so loud
@@650ib I know Mr. 650ib that's why I love it.
Sold my bike but can't afford to purchase 1 back right now.
IT SHOULD be interesting what the BIG four Japanese companies come up with....
From Yamaha: search MOTOROiD. Pretty interesting can’t wait to see more from the other three
Inline 4 is from europe middle eastern
Great video man !!!!
If Energica Ego is a glimpse of future, then i guess future's gonna be pretty bright !!!

Nice. The vette was always one of my favorite American cars, but didn't really stand up to foreign cars too me.
This new C8 looks gorgeous and the mid engine is really appealing to me, I think the new formula will make it a favorite for me. Looking forward to the vids

that looks like a ton of fun
Did that yung'un just say prevention of battery "acid" spillage? If you had lead acid batteries in there it would certainly weigh more than 645 lbs !!!
Quite a few incorrect statements in there from the sales guy, but it's a sales guy so...
@@tiptoucher3694 Sales people being sales people.
They don't need to know much, only slightly more than their customers (which is usually a very low bar).
I'm a fan of both electric cars and electric motorcycles, but to say that going from a 45 MPG ICE bike to this *grand piano* with an electric motor in it will "save the planet" is quite a stretch and is overselling it.
Exactly. Planes cars and industrial vehicles are the issue. Not the 5% of people that ride bloody bikes lol this won’t do jack shit to help the environment
H2r be like:: who is little child 🤣🤣🤣
I never knew you were Canadian A. I love this bike for someone like you that can have more than one bike. I love gas and oil. But I would love to have one of these too. I think they will be very popular in coming years. Love the sound.
i will say that it like a super scooter like seriusly super scooter
As cool as electric is, I don’t really see them overtaking gasoline powered bikes. No wheelies, no clutch, no exhaust sound. Hard to say I’ll trade gas for that just yet.
Stay tuned.... There's a new electric motorcycle coming soon!
"No wheelies" WTF?
Neojhun gonna take so throttle you and crazy braking and gas hand atm
@@Texarmageddon Huh torque monster E Bikes rely on motor programing or traction control to prevent unintended wheelies. You bet people will figure out how to disable that because it's just a software switch. Then wheelies will become a problem just launching from stand still.
Neojhun comment had nothing to do with unintended wheelies... and everything to do with controlled wheelies that don’t destroy frames and fork seals 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
Nice looking bike! Still not sure I want one, but like it or not, I guess it's the future
I've just ridden the Zero range of bikes. If you have never ridden an electric bike you can't understand what you are missing. They are INCREDIBLE! hoping to review an Energica Ego next spring.
Thanks Phil! Looking forward to your review.
You never showed the ego with a full tank of gas
🤣🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I knew the 650 would take the Energica.
It was a sad day
What kind of battery did you say it had? I thought it was mentioned, but I couldn't hear it clearly. They really have to get that weight down. However, I totally can see myself having an electric motorcycle in the future. Thanks for the video.
very beautiful bike!
Lithium batteries would be much lighter and safer but probably add a few thousand to the price.
life expectancy of batteries? Replacement price? total loss after few years? wouldn´t buy a second hand Iphone because of the battery, so definitely no Ecar or Ebike.
I would struggle with the thought of getting beat by a car. I like them, though
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
It's nice and cool I am new to your channel and I love the Ducati 999 ;)
Yeahh! Love at first signt, i can feel you man!!! 🖤
Electric stuff can be fun and has some advantages but it's not what I want in a motorcycle.
I agree👍
Same here ... shifting gear n beast sound it feels good
Same here. I need to hear the roar and make sure all my neighbors hear me as well! The constant shifting in traffic...nothing beats it. The heat radiating when stopped...delicious.
It should use Tesla's supercharger network.
I agree!
Hey 650 really like your style man. You’re a gentleman.

@@teej5619 I know there’s another electric bike but I forgot what it’s called
@@RandyLaheyJulian ... I thought you were talking about a gas bike.. in which case it's still hard to go 300 miles
I mean anything in general is kind of a stretch to go 300 miles (if it's electric), hell it was only a couple years ago where the Tesla model s went over 300 mi for range (and they were at the peak of their tech)....
I mean the Porsche Tycan can't do 200 miles of range.
So I'm just happy with the 150 miles of range
does the quick charger down the road cost $$ to recharge the battery?
