    If you goto their website, Energica has a map that shows all the dealers. They are expanding in the US. Slowly but are getting there. There is one in South Carolina, I think Wisconsin, and Florida where I am at. Still if you are out in the sticks, I believe they can crate ship it right to your house for you too.
    It's weight is like 578 lbs give or take a few, but once you get it going say 4 to 6 mph you really can't feel it anymore, the bike is very controllable, and there are times when Ive been riding and it's almost like the bike has ESP and can read my mind, just the slightest lean or push and it's doing exactly what you want it to.
    Being a naked bike, the wind can beat you up a bit, especially if you are at highway speeds and get by a semi etc, but hey, that's part of the love of riding a bike, feeling the wind in your hair right? :)
    The regen, well, learn your bike. You can set it's strength, lighten it up or crank it up, as you need but it is STILL controlled by your throttle! Let off a little bit, the regen will kick in a little bit, let off a lot and the regen is a lot, (If conditions allow, the bike will NOT let your Regen lock your tire or put you in an unsafe condition like that, it works hand in hand with your ABS etc to keep you safe) It does take a bit to get used to but once you do, you can essentially use regen to do most of your braking, only using the brakes at the very last few feet just to positively stop the bike, keep it from wandering etc. This saves wear and tear on the brakes and of course, puts a bit of that last acceleration back into the battery! You can also turn it completely off as well.
    You CAN switch modes while riding!! It is not the turn signal switch, at least on later models, it's the switch BEHIND the handle bar to get into those menu's.
    Finally, Energica stands behind their products 100 percent. I have had minor issues and talked to them and NO BS, just right away, bring it in we'll fix it. Speaking OF issues, the Energica line has not had any major issues either, which is a HUGE thing in the E vehicle world. How many other bikes and cars have had entire years recalled due to battery issues, power train issues etc etc? Not the Energica, it's a rock solid bike!
    I have had mine for about 9 months now and absolutely love it! If you are ever down in Florida, look me up we can go for a ride, I know some twisty roads that are really fun when you open it up to play around!

    Uses a lot of people when they don't hear an exhaust. Wish I could charge at Tesla superchargers, but that won't happen until 2025 model years. 165 hp and torques is way different on electric bikes than gas bikes. Same with Teslas vs ice cars. Lots of fun. Keep the shiny side up!

    Fantastic looking battery bike. Very cool the 21.5 battery was an option over the 7.2. While the changing of drive modes has to be done while stopped sort of sucks, it probably is not going to be something people would fuss around with a lot anyhow. Don't need to fuss around with it on the move. The only thing I don't care for is, it sounds like a golf cart. Which is a turn off. But on a sport bike like this, I doubt I would care much for an engine sound anyhow. I am a Harley monster motor sound kind of guy.

      You can switch while driving, but on that, you don't have the self control to NOT floor it when it's raining etc etc? I get it, having the bike limp out is helpful but it's not a critical fault.

    the thing about regen is its a skill , you dont snap a throttle wide open on a serious bike or it flips , likewise you dont snap a regen throttle shut, you feather it to apply breaking to the desired level once you are up to speed with it . Set it to the max and learn to operate it properly for a massive brake pad saving . Start slowly and give the new bike some respect before you get proficient

    except for the fact that electric bikes have no range and are excessively heavy pigs... Once that improves and the prices get reasonable, I could possibly appreciate an electric bike.

    • @splendidescapist301
      @splendidescapist301 11 місяців тому +3

      There will always be trade-offs. It's not as if liter bikes have 300+ miles of range. They do 200 miles on a good day and if you're beating on them under 150 is totally common. Yes, these electric bikes weigh more; the Ego+ RS (supersport version of the bike in the video here) weighs 573 lbs compared to ~415 lbs for a fully wet Ducati Panigali V4, but the Panigale V4 makes ~85 ft-lbs and this makes 164... I'm sure the CG is probably lower but that's not necessarily advantageous in the same way in a sportbike as in a car since you want it to fall over into corners.

      Honestly@@mr-hard-rock once you get going 4 to 5 mph you really don't feel the weight anymore, it handles very precisely. They also have a parking assist where it will actually give you a slow speed forward AND reverse to get you turned around in parking lots, the garage etc etc.
