I entered my Energica Ribelle RS in a hillclimb race!

- Опубліковано 19 сер 2024
- Once a year, a public road in Gladstone, New Zealand is closed off for the most hardcore racing event in the country. This is a mini Isle of Man TT style course up a winding mountain road, and riders get up to some insane speeds. Of course I brought the newest, fanciest Italian electric motorcycle to compete!

"Ya gunna start it?"🤣
So good to see yas having fun 👍
Haha cheers man. Such a cool event!
@@NewZeroland was a good moment.. just tell Im just gonna doit on da starter mota .. would be interesting to see a capacitor power pack vs lithium.. need a portable Tesla Powerwall for mobile DC quick charging
Mate, really glad u got out on it for this and had such a good time! As crazy as the bike is, the Ego+ is even moreso, and probably perfectly matched for this kind of race. That extra 40kph, aero, and pinned position would just add to the Ribelle experience on a race like this...but it would hamstring comfort and practicality in non-race applications. All the best for 1st of April!!!!!
Truuuue that. The Ego+RS would need an even more skilled rider for this place. The road is crazy bumpy and probably requires a custom adjustment just for this event. Hey if I don't get my license back soon I'll just have to do more track days!
Living the life. Good on ya. Thanks for sharing this epic day.
Thanks for watching! I'm loving this bike more everyday 😁
The race is called the cliffhanger? It's like it was made for you :)
Right?? HAHA I loved it.
@@NewZeroland now what you need is to get a dragy to test the 0-100kph time and 1/4 mile of the new motor, i'd be excited to see how it does compared to the older RS that the guy did mid 10's with
@@Magic_Toaster just bought one! Now I need to get my license back and find a legal place to do it haha.
Livin' the dream! It really isn't about the speed so much as testing what you and the bike are capable of without risking a Darwin Award. This is actually one of the reasons why I'm not particularly keen on a more powerful bike, the temptation to push the limits is why so many become organ donors, and I've pushed my luck enough times throughout my life the quota seems (almost) full.
Haha yep, a guy on an RC390 destroyed me. I really want to get a more skilled rider on the Energica just to see what it's capable of, because unless I get a million times better, I'll still be getting slow times.
Self-control is one of the most important bike skills. ;)
Congrats! Glad you got to take it out and have a blast with it. Well done!
Cheers man!
I loved this, but I can't wait for your next big tour with Jen.
Thanks man, and meeeee too! But without drama or cliffhangers this time.. maybe.
"Flickable" ...that's going in the Energica brochure for sure! Well done :)
😂😁 Not a term I would have thought I'd say about a 260kg bike, but it honestly felt LIGHT at those speeds!
@@NewZeroland The way Jen says it with the smirk too ... 😉
damn, some riders go fast! 💨
Vraiment top ! Toujours un plaisir de voir tes nouvelles vidéos ♥️⚡🏍️
Merci beaucoup! Je vous en suis reconnaissant. Les motos électriques ont tellement avancé en si peu de temps !
Awesome!
So cool. Love that sound
Thanks! I do too. It divides a lot of people but I like the tie fighter sound.
You’re turning me into a masochist. It’s just painful to watch you have so much fun.
Sorry not sorry! I wish this event was every weekend.
The life of a hardened criminal.... Looks really fun.
Maaaan it was! I wish this event happened every weekend.
I wish energica would come out with a dual sport or supermoto...that would complete their variety
Man yes! An electric supermoto with DC fast charging would be amaaazing.
Getting very close to picking up a new Triumph Tiger 660 and as the accessories push the price closer to the Ego SS9 I keep wishing the Energica price was a little lower and they made something that's fully comparable in style for on road touring / adventure.
Tiger 660 does sadly lack the Ego's Cruise Control.
Next bike will be electric for sure but one last manual trans ICE vehicle for me.
What's good with these CCS zeros tho, may make me reconsider the SRS...
@@ZeroFuell amen to that....give me a good energica dual sport with decent power and battery in the 5k to 8k price range and people would flock to them
Love it. Cool Kiwi event.
Yeah! Sooo much fun.
Thanks for coming!!
Man that was the most fun I've had in a long time. I can't wait til next year!!
This was so ****ing exciting to watch!
Thanks bro!!
Great footage guys
Cheers Steve!
Wow, that sound is amazing. Ziiiinnngggg. You have gone faster than I have ever gone. Ziiiinggggggg.
Whoa hahaha yeah I looked down at one point and I was going faster, in a turn, than my Zero was ever capable of going 😂
⚡️💨 Well done Sam!
Cheers man! I'm loving this bike more and more every time I ride it.
“You gunna start it?” “Ah.. It’s started. It’s electric”. LMAO!!!!!!!!!! 💀
Dude the things people say when they don’t know is priceless.
Also sick runs!!! I bet I’d be more of a noob if I was riding in that race. My time would be like 9-10mins lol been awhile since I rode.
Haha I love being the only electric rider at all these events, but also can't wait to see more out there racing!!
Yes good Ride congratulations ! Don't need cats head, just enjoy, thanks for this
Thanks Patrick! Glad you enjoyed it :)
Great to see you put the "Rib" through its paces on that course. You've got way bigger cojones than I have!
What a truly awesome machine!
You must be only a few days from being allowed off the naughty step now. Have fun, but beware the kittens! 😁
Haha thanks bro! Any chance I could take to legally ride as fast as I wanted 😂 Potentially a week or two if everything goes well!
Thank you sir! Suggest finest!
Thank YOU!! Keep up the amazing videos, sir!
Races like these are all about steady pace. Peaking above 200 is all well and good but if youre slowing to 50kms around a sweeping corner, it just wipes out the gains...
Ok enough of that crap 🤣 never mind the glowing green jealousness lol that must have been amazing either way lol awesome dude!
Haha thanks! And yep, absolutely. I need way more practice and seat time on that road. It's a really difficult one. The fastest guy there ended up flying off the cliff (he's ok, but his bike isn't).
@@NewZeroland dayum....
On another comment you mentioned you got smoked by a rc390. Lol that seems to be a common theme at most tracks these days 🤣 bigger aint necessarily better! Ok yeah it is but you gotta actually know how to use it lol
@@jace2wheel762 yep haha. And the rider was like 60 years old! Gotta respect those old dudes on little bikes.
@@NewZeroland lol 100% dude
Woohooooo!!!!
Yeah!! :D
Well done 😃
Cheers man!
Heh "Cliffhanger," so appropriate for you! Glad to see this video, it looks like you had tons of fun. I can imagine asking for this kinda performance is a real test for the bike, even if you weren't the fastest.
Thanks man! True haha, this is my favorite event XD I definitely need practice though. Time to hit as many track days as I can before next year.
At one point your bike sounded like a Tie Fighter. Looked fun.
Right?? That fly by sound was so cool to hear!
That is awesome! It sounded like you chirped the tires a bit on launch too!
That was the traction control keeping me alive 😂 I wasn't brave enough to turn it down.
On the first run TC was going taatatataatatataatatatata 🤣. TC set at 6, really cuts waaaay too much power Sam, without really being safer than lets say TC4. If you go lower than 4 you might experience very brief split second tyre slippage, but nothing that the computer can't recover from.
The scary settings are TC1 (only if you know what you are doing) and Off (NOT recommended)
Badeepadeepaadeep 😂 yeah I was too freaked out to turn it down. The bike wanted to wheelie non-stop all the way to 100!
@@NewZeroland I understand, in time you will get used to it, as you know I'm a big advocate of getting out of TC6, which is like having the bike on rain mode. As I said, TC 4 is a good an all around setting 🙂
Awesome footage brooo!. The marshal at the start line is gold ae haha 😄. This is one event i have to do! Count me in next year!
Yess! Absolutely bro. Lemme know if you go to any trackdays this year. I need the practice 😂
@@NewZeroland think theres one 16th april if your keen?, central district motorcycle club hosting it i think.
@@JBDesignNz awww I'm riding up north that weekend, if all goes well. Next one though!
Wicked
Damn that is a super bike! So much fun & super cool! I gotta get 1!😭
Right?? Soooo good man! I love it. Energica really outdid themselves :D
3:33
Cat Free !
Hi to all the viewers on Molesworth Street !
Speeding legally, finally!
Awesome! Now I REALLY want an EsseEsse9+ RS. If only it weren't $49,000.00... 😞
Man I feel ya.. it's a lotta money but I have no regrets 😁
Mega!! That was so cool. The beastie flies!!. Nice to see those chicken strips getting smaller!! Props to the Uber driver 😂😂
Haha cheers man! I wish this event happened every weekend. I would buy a house on that road 😂
Impressive, especially the 200 kph phone mount
Stronger than Zero's velcro tank bag!
We need a cliffhanger overhere too! 🙂
Nice job; good to see you having fun even without your license 🤭
Haha cheers Rick! Yeah you do. They need to close down more mountain roads like this!!
@@NewZeroland We only have 'Dutch mountains' overhere (nothing more than a doorstep - we're flatlanders :-) )
The Energica is my "some day" bike. Seeing the performance here I'm beginning to think it might be a little too powerful for my skills.
Same here man haha. Same here.
You can always go for the SS9 of an older 13.4 kWh
@@NewZeroland knowing your limitations, as a wise man once said, is life’s most important lesson. The “Hold my Beer, Watch This !” Mentality usually ends horribly!
Being visited in a hospital is nice, but being in a hospital as the result of stupidity…
Practice Practice Practice. Enjoying life for a lifetime is it’s own reward ! You are doing it right !!!
@@TheLrb12c thanks! Yeah the organizer gave us all a talk before the race to say that "the fast guys are riding within their limits.. their limits are just different than yours" haha. In the end it was just an awesomely fun day on a rollercoaster of a road and I can't wait to do it again!
👍
also, TC was going mad at your starts and stuttering heaps! Bike needs a 'launch control'. the noise recorded by Jen as you rode by that S-bend is 100% Ty Fighter!!
Haha yeah I left TC on Level 6 and did not lower it all day. The bike wanted to wheelie so many times during that launch haha.
So cool. I want a road bike now 🤣
Right?? Hopefully Energica brings out a tourer for ya.
@@NewZeroland yay 😁
Hey there mate absolutely lovely bike you've got! Must be one of only a couple in nz at this point. Were your passes done with launch control? I was half expecting a wheelie out the gate knowing how much torque these things produce hahaha. Stay safe out there bro :)
Thanks man! Yep haha, left traction control on max all day. It wanted to wheelie so bad, and I wasn't ready to do that yet 😂 The power is insane on this thing.
Yo. Awesome.
😁 I should hire this drone pilot for every video, huh?
What no Kittens on the dash?!?! I feel cheated. 🤣🤣🤣
No need!! Or maybe this was too fast for the kittens O_O
@@NewZeroland I still think it needs kittens even if they are not required for legal reasons.
05:38 : That Star Wars sound....did not expect just a random bloke on a red motorcycle. Battery is not liquid cooled too?
Right?? Sounds pretty crazy flying by. Nope, so far no electric motorcycles have liquid cooled batteries.
on my EsseEsse9+ RS when in tractioncontrol 2 or less the frontwheel lifts ...if you want to try a wheely...reduce the TC :P
Nice!! That sounds like a really safe way to practice. I like that idea. Thanks 😁
Such a cool event. I'm a car driver and I got scared from your 'on board' footage, so I'd probably just faint from an overdose of adrenaline if I were actually there on the bike ;)
Bwahaha nah it was a blast! Like a rollercoaster that only goes up 😂
Holy Fuuuuuuu... I'm glad you captured that launch like that. What a bike. Too bad the name "Ninja" was already taken. That thing's silent and deadly. lol
Hahaha thanks man 😂 It sounded hilarious with the traction control kicking in non-stop, but I wasn't brave enough to turn it off.
Nice way to christen the bike! and Nice aerial shots. (even if they aren't yours, lol)
For sure! I really scored :D
2:47 had me laughing me head off.
4:00 Your time was 30 minutes 15 seconds?
30 minutes would have been walking pace! 😂 But yeah, close. I'm slow.
Very cool! Not sure I'm man enough to make runs like that. I have the windscreen on mine. I think it makes it more aerodynamic. Much less buffeting. I still don't like the noise they make. Oh well. They're awesome motorcycles.
Yeah riding alongside my wife, we were able to notice a huge difference between windscreen and non-windscreen bikes. Hers easily gets 10-15% more range than mine.
Whiieeeee!!!
Bwahaha yessss
Amazing acceleration. Add a windscreen?
200kmph ≈ 124mph
Thinkin bout it! The range difference between my bike and Jenn's is pretty huge. She gets like 10-15% more.
Would love to do an event like this. How fun!
Dude this has your name written all over it!
Nice ! 🏍🌍🤣
Cheers!
Brah... you definitely have to go to a rideing course. I was a couple days ago just to find out how bad i am :p haha No really it make such a huge difference if you know your skills and you know the track blindfold. How ever i'm sure it was a huge fun 👌🏼⚡🚀
Yep 100%! I need to do as many track days as possible this year. My body position is horrible haha.
Wouldn't it be nice if you can somehow fast charge the bike from the Tesla between laps?
Could be a great solution also for off road trips where you tow the bike make a trail charge a bit and continue.
I'm looking into it! There HAS to be a way. Even if it's just from the 12V battery up from with a transformer or something.
@NewZeroland 1. U can do it from the 12V battery via inverter, but not sure how much power goes to the 12V,. Does nor look like much, in this case it will be a very slow charge.
2. Some one did it this way in the US,. He published it in social media. Tesla found out and revoked his battery warranty.
3. Hyundai Ionic5 has 3000W 220v inverter built in inverter the back seat. Tesla rwfuse to offer this option
Thanks for that!
Oh, do you wear earplugs? That wind through the helmet will definitely take its toll on your hearing and you will go quicker with earplugs too. It removes part of the visceral feeling of speed so it will let you push that much harder more easily.
Great point! Sometimes I do but I forgot them that day. Next time for sure. Hopefully that will speed me up a bit.
Ok so it looked like a fun day no matter what. Few questions. You said the battery went yellow. Is that a SOC yellow or a thermal yellow warning? I thought I heard a pulsing at takeoff, was that traction control? Have they said anything about Teslas being able to buddy charge? IOW charge the bike off the car.
Great questions! Yeah that yellow battery was just a warning to plug it in soon because it was below 40%. I probably shouldn't have put that in but it seemed like an interesting moment 😂 No thermal warnings all day. The pulsing was traction control, yeah. It sounded ridiculous but I didn't want to turn it off because the bike wanted to pull wheelies non-stop. I've heard of people using the 12V battery from their Teslas with a step-up transformer, but not sure about the high voltage pack. THAT would be an amazing solution for an event like this.
Fine... I'll get one. ;)
😂😂😂😁
You honorary Kiwi's sure have friendly Uber drivers
😁
This is without the optional windscreen right? I definitely think it needs a bigger screen - my 790 Duke certainly was massively improved with one.
Yeah my wife has the screen on hers and she gets about 10-15% more range.
@@NewZeroland Likely much less wind noise too. It's in my "web config". :)
What is that chopping at the acceleration?
Commutation errors or traction control?
Yeah traction control. I left it on the highest setting because I wasn't ready to wheelie yet.
First! Someone pick me up!
Gimme a ride too!
My RC makes a meaner sound ;)
It seems like you could do with a mobile charging unit for this type of event.
Dude, YES! Do you know of anyone that sells portable batteries? UBCO showed one off but I'm not sure if it's for sale yet, or big enough. Maybe hack into the Tesla and charge off that??
Down to 39% power....weight saving for more speed ????
If only 😂
Time to change your channel to "NewEnergicaLand"... to hell with Zero.
😂
Now if they would only enable V2L we could charge our bikes from our Teslas. :) Cybertruck will be so good for this!
Right?? Surely someone has figured it out. Charging up between sessions would be a game changer!
@@NewZeroland It needs to be enabled in the inverter - supposedly all EU and RHD model 3s have the circuits but it needs to be turned on.
Tesla needs vehicle to load so you can keep going all day.
Right?? I need to figure out how to do that.
Waiting for a GS1200 equiv. electric bike with fast charging. Kind of tired of Zero ngl.
Yeah man! We need an Energica tourer.
Thx for the video. The noise isolation of your car seems absoluty horrible
Probably just my phone audio not being that great. It's actually really quiet in the Tesla.
When you get your license back you gotta get prepped for next year I wanna see you kill it 😀. Guess with the license gone for now maybe its time to work on your "Richrebuild" 😁.
Absolutely!! I'm hoping to book as many track days as I can this year. And yeah I need to start disassembling the parts bike and get that engine outta the Beat. Great idea man :D
WTF. Some do 260¿!
Sad the yellow battery popped up. Next car needs V2L.
Haha yeah those liter bike guys are insane. The yellow battery was only a warning because I was lower than 40%. No overheating all day.
@@NewZeroland I know. But it makes power go down.
Way too expensive for what it is .A fool and their money are easily parted .26 K for this .Fck me
Hey thanks for watching! Someday I hope you get to ride an Energica, too.
I’me sorry to ask but what is it with that hat. Yucky
Hat?
