Great video! Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I'm biased because I own one of these already, but I love that the future of motorcycling can still be insanely fun without the gears / noise / pollution.
Many thanks, really glad you enjoyed the video 👍 Although lacking the soul and involvement of a petrol bike, it is non the less a very impressive and fun bike to ride! Crazy fast and encouraging to know they can make such a bonkers bike. Cheers
Thank God am at an age that will still be able to enjoy petrol engine bikes before the advent of electric powered vehicles. Otherwise I would feel compelled to give up Motorbiking. No range No sound No soul !
It is a daunting prospect to imagine no petrol bikes!! However if it is going to happen, it's good to know that there are companies like Energica that are exploring the realms of electric bikes.
A long way to go before I trade one in for my Speedmaster.
I agree and don’t argue that valid point.I’m just glad by that time I will be too old to be riding Motorcycles and will have enjoyed all the years that I have been fortunate to be able to sample engined bikes including 2 Stokes
@@solentmotorbiketours9545 👍 Nothing better than a petrol engine on song!
Lol, a bike is just bike.
No doubt gas bikes sound better, but don’t knock the electrics before you try it. I guarantee you won’t give up riding. (And they won’t sell “new” bikes, but you will still have your old ones to play with right? …if not, come over to the US, we won’t give them up without a fight
I was talking to a reasonably large dealership the other day who have about 5 shops and all sell Energica EV bikes. Up to now not one has been sold across all their dealerships. Bottom line is that before anyone tries to write off ICE tech, a viable alternative needs to be available and at the moment EVs are a very long way off from being a viable transport alternative for the masses. Personally, I think the whole EV thing is just another money making scheme, or if you like a scam. If Governments really want to reduce C02 emissions, then they need to tackle the problem at source, as in manufacturing in China, India and the USA who are mainly responsible for producing about 75% of the worlds C02 emissions. Changing to EV's is going to make bugger all difference to the rising temperature and will probably increase the C02 production due to the high C02 required for new EV bike and car production. Also most of the Government research into reducing C02 emissions are, guess what: sponsored by the Government. Clearly they have an agenda, probably similar to helping their mates like in the Covid PPE supply scandal!!!
The best way to reduce C02 emissions is to use your existing motorcycle/car and not buy any new bikes/cars unless you absolutely have too, as that will just add to the global C02 emissions. Finally, to put in place the necessary infrastructure for EVs for the masses, every road in the country will need to be dug up and bigger cables installed, plus many more Nuclear power stations will be required, plus the extra infrastructure needed between the power stations and the local transformer units delivering the 440v/230volts to cope with the extra charging demands. Can you see that happening before 2035 without massive Government financial support? I think not.
Finally. the quoted range for all EVs will be immediately reduced by about 25% when the temperature drops in the Autumn, Winter and Spring. Something else they don't tell you in the marketing blurb...
To be honest I am not surprised at this price!! A great fun toy if you have the money to spare.
As to global emissions and global warming I am not going to even venture commenting on it, because I just simply do not know enough about it!! I suppose maybe it is easier to try and make an electric motorcycle than to make the USA/China etc... change there ways. A very tricky world problem with no easy solution. Let's hope we find a better way for the sakes of all of us.
More V-Twins I say 😉
Plus, just switch to public transport
Have to agree with Graham. Not sure we haven’t jumped onto the netzero proganda band wagon when C02 in the atmosphere has barely moved up. Plus the pollution from producing electric batteries is shocking! Also, Have to say it but that bike sounds awful! 🤷♂️ glad I’m an old bloke and probably won’t ever have to swop to electric 🥴 sorry for my negative comments but I adore changing gear 🤷♂️
cuckoo
The Increase in infrastructure will bring more diverse and greener power production at scale even with transmission costs it’s more efficient and with evs being 90+ efficient it’s now recognised that the carbon footprint of evs will be offset much earlier than previously thought much better than ice ..people have spent whole lives never noticing how filthy oil production is and the destruction caused by 7 plus billion tons of Iron yearly and other less than rare materials coming out of the ground.. there’s plenty of agenda in big oil too we need oil massively just not for Burning.. infrastructure increase is to an extent off set by vehicle to grid balancing and expanded storage theres virtually no need to charge more than once a week for the vast majority of normal commuting users green energy and ev manufacturing is multi national and is already vastly diverse theres absolutely no reason for an overnight panicking switchover & the Idea that there’s now a far reaching green conspiracy by the face mask clowns and the knicker Magnet Mones is utterly bonkers ..theres already plenty of new chemistry’s ordered and in production with a price advantage that are less affected by temperature and not using cobalt too..
It does look pretty nice though. Good job keeping up with your speedy escort all the while giving us a decent review. Thank you and keep up the good work👏
👍 Thanks it was a bit of a challenge to keep up, he was fast! It is a mighty impressive bit of kit.
Cheers and all the best to you
Good review, what would really be interesting is a long-term test to see how the range/recharging works in the real world. Cheers.
Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed it 👍 Yes I would love to test one out over the long term. Really need to do that to be able to get a feel for how practical it is etc... Hopefully some time soon someone will lend me one for a week or so! (I won't be buying one yet 😉)
Cheers
Great video angus, got to get myself back up to hayball motorcycles for a test ride on that energica ribelle looks and sounds an awesome experience 😀 😎 👍 👏 👌.
Many thanks, really glad you enjoyed the video 👍 A great little dealership, get down there fast as I think they are looking to sell this current demo!
Cheers
Great review, I'm an old old-school biker 50+ and know for a fact that I can't see myself switching to electric ever. I'm all for the future and the environment but not to the point where a true motorcycle becomes a thing of the past. It may be quick and quiet but it's just not the same as a 1 down 5 up, the noise, the smell. the oily weekends in the man shed. So not for me I'm afraid. Great review regardless.
Thanks I appreciate it and glad you enjoyed the review 👍 I am the same really so can understand, however am just of the age where I may be forced to ride electric at some point! It is a very impressive bike but just really does not have the soul of a petrol bike.
@@redangrevival Yeah I do see your point. Ride safe.
It’s the future and I’m excited. There’s still a way to go but what’s not to like. Much lower servicing costs & no chavs annoying everyone with baffle-less exhausts.
👌 I like your approach to it. It is the future (at the moment) so might as well embrace it and try to improve it as best we can.
Some improvements to be made and I will certainly miss petrol bikes!
The second review on electric bikes I have watched this week, You made very similar comments as the other review, I would love to test ride one as it would be interesting.
It really is a very interesting ride 👍 I do struggle to see how they are going to make a good electric cruiser bike!
Crickey that’s quick! It doesn’t look worth the price tag imo, but I’m not into that style of bike. Well done bro 👍🏼
It is crazy fast!! Nearly same amount of torque as the Rocket 3 😳 Same not one for me personally, will stick to my Speedmaster haha. Cheers
That torque fig is just mind blowing (as is the price). What do you think the regs will do to used prices of petrol bikes? Could go either way I suppose... depending on marque/model. Great test.
Both crazy figures, way too expensive atm I think. Unless you have your heart set on one, prices will come down though.
It really is staggeringly fast 😳 Pretty much the same amount of torque as triumph Rocket 3 (and lighter).
Suppose it depends on other laws etc.. but I think it may increase the price of certain petrol powered bikes. But in general think petrol bike prices will drop, because of various taxes etc...
Thanks glad you enjoyed the vid
Petrol bikes will be cheap emoto will become same price in 5years .. it ll take time .. but as of now you byy ut for your company and its halfprice . So no complaining !!
I would miss the shifting! This thing rides like a scooter on steroids. Hyundai are currently working on a system to simulate shifting for their future sportier EVs from the N-line, which makes for a much more natural and involving driving experience. I would give this one-gear-fits-all system a huge pass for now.
Again… cracking video!
Cheers!
Thanks really glad you enjoyed the video 👍 I completely agree, I really did miss changing gears, it is such a crucial and involving part of riding a motorcycle. Yes I have heard rumours about being able to mimic a gear change. That would be much better.
Cheers
Great review, although it isnt a bike I like, I felt like I completely understand what the company building it is trying to achieve.
Hear Hear 👍 Not something I would personally buy, but good for Energica to strive for something better
Hey it’s Scott from Texas! You found them! Love that bike! This is what I want. Range is not an issue with these and they are pricy but the performance with that torque it can be calm or as you guys in UK say, out right Mental! I started the the review and everyone I know that ridden that bike says it’s a real motorcycle. The weight down low keeps is light with the battery’s. They make a touring you know? 😈
Hi Scott, yes it really is a very impressive motorcycle and ride! Great handling/performance etc... a premium bike.
However there are the obvious downfalls, range and lack of character/sound. But I think these factors can be improved on over time. A promising bike 👍
The electric future is too nonsensical to be taken seriously.
Must say makes me appreciate petrol bikes for the time being!
However can definitely see some benefits of electric
I would definitely like to have one of these. Just need increased range. Regenerative braking similar to engine braking is a plus in my opinion. I bet they are heavy with that battery which I like. Ghost shifting, I bet that will be something I’ll suffer from ! I think I’ll miss shifting ! To say it again, I look forward to having one.
👍 glad to hear there are some people out there who are looking forward to the future! Yes I think they can be quite creative with the re-gen braking which is good. Adds character to the bike.
I think they may be able to add something similar to a gear change. No sure about how it works but sounds interesting. Hopefully they come down in price soon. Cheers
@@redangrevival I think the extra space needed and the additional weight of a transmission may be why they aren’t having them be a part of the design. I think having gears, where full throttle in 1st gear max speed to be 40 mph as an example would be a safety feature. Instead on one full throttle twist take you from zero to 140 mph ! Look forward to more information coming out on electric bikes. Have a great day ! Keep up the great work 👍 you are appreciated 😎
@@Brian-tb1zs A good point 👍 Also very much agree with the "restricted" first gear, it can be a bit daunting twisting that throttle and next stop is space haha
Same to you and many thanks
Well Red that looked pretty dammed good to me although by the time these are affordable i'll be too old to ride one if i'm still around but at least you got a really decent ride there to give it some beans best i've seen so far I reckon ,but what's gonna happen to all these petrol bikes that are going to be around for many more years surly .Not riding at all now until spring and it's bloody awful but at least I can watch channels like yours "it helps a bit'' 😉👌👍I believe that shop used to be Duffield's when I lived down there where Trevor nation used to be a mechanic .
It is really good, mighty impressive bike 👍 Definitely lacking some soul though! Also the price is just a bit too much atm haha Looking forward to trying the new Energica Experia, bit more real world power etc.. Glad you can at least find some biking enjoyment from TH-cam, blimey it is cold riding around on my Speedmaster without heated grips 😂 💪
Very interesting, looks a very nice bike but the range and charging time of electric bikes at the moment puts me off, and the price. They're perfect for commuting but I can't see it being very good at touring or going out for a 200+ mile run out with your mates, will they want to wait with you while you charge it up. Maybe when everything is electric then the range or better still the charging time will be greatly improved.Really it needs a charging time equivalent to how long it needs to fill up with petrol. Great video as usual.Thanks.
Thanks glad you enjoyed the video 👍 I agree there is definitely some improvement to be made, but things are progressing. I will be staying with my Speedmaster for now! Cheers
A GREAT review Gus! I’ve never heard of that brand and I must say, a nice surprise - the bike performed really well! However, I’m extremely dubious about the claims of ALL the manufacturers regarding range and the lifespan of the batteries. I worry that we will be buying “disposable” vehicles with no residual value and anything other than a “city scooter type bike” will be financially out of reach of the average person. The majority of us can’t afford an exotic Bimota, MV Augusta etc, today, so what will change? How will we afford an electric bike in the future with wages being devalued in real terms on a monthly basis? I’m really not against electric bikes - I just struggle to see how we are ever going to make the transition. It looks as though motorcycling will become the domain of only the higher earners - just like it was with Brough Superior for example in the early days. Will it truly become affordable in the foreseeable future? … Is it just me? 😢 On a lighter note - I keep looking at that bike and seeing a cross between a Ducati Monster and a 600 Bandit… lol! 😂
Thanks so much, really glad you enjoyed the review 👍 It is a very impress bike thats for sure. However I agree, as you say there are so many variables of what may happen in the future. There is a lot of work to be done to make electric motorcycles viable for the masses.
Who knows what the future holds! I say lets enjoy what we have now! Yup I also think the front end looks a bit like an MT-10.
No worries prices will drop .. also check out the energica experia . Still expensive but good range and usabillity if you want ..
Ihave 7 year old batteries that only dropped 3% in oerformance . I think i can use them for about 20 years or later use them for my offgrid set up . Energica has real range figures . . Btw .. yamaha and honda are waiting it out till there s a batt breakrthrough .. and yes it should all be recycleble..
The end of an era of what ice attracted humans to . Went to nec all electric stands were empty as was bsa. Says something😊
I think we have a good few years of enjoying petrol bikes still 👍
Was it stock suspension or ohlin upgraded ones (with it being RS Version)
It was stock suspension if I remember correctly!
It's gonna take all the fun out of it... or maybe not... time will tell.. and where is the time going.. did someone speed up time... drifts off into contemplation..
Keep going Angus by 2030 I reckon you're be looking like ZZ Topp! ;-))
Brave man out in that weather!
Take care
Cheers
I think it does and it doesn't haha! Definitely prefer petrol power for now, but I think give them 10 years to work on electric and they will come up with some pretty cool ideas.
I am just trying to imagine what an electric cruiser would be like 🤔
😂 Could do with a bit of a trim I know, look like I have rolled out of a hedge backwards!
Cheers
@@redangrevival lol nice one.. getting close to Josey Wales at the moment
@@LionTheHeart Haha I'll take that, he looks awesome!
@@redangrevival He's the man!
"Are you gonna use those pistols or whistle dixy" 😉
@@LionTheHeart haha 😎
I'm sure we will easily be able to afford these bikes when we have achieved the "high skill high wage economy" 😄
🥴
There would be a slight whine from me also, lol.
haha same 👍
The Energica Eva bikes are pretty naughty bikes. Twist and go is a lot of fun and soooo easy, people will eventually get used to it.
However, the prices would have to come down to what ICE bikes are now. The range would have to be extended, 160 miles (if true) would probably get me to Dartmoor to ride about and get home but I would be nervous. If I wanted to go to Penzance and back, I'd be stuck there for quite a while.
And the biggest problem is charging time. I can't see the technology ever catching up with 5 minutes at a petrol pump. They'll have to fit a dual battery so you get twice the range.
Lastly, these are not as environmentally sound as the government thinks. Petrol bikes are not that polluting, cars and trucks are far, far worse.
Good mental health everybody, always riding, never hiding 😊
They are extremely fast and capable bikes! But yes far too expensive atm, however think the prices will drop in advances of technology etc...
Yes range is always a problem, however (if you can find them) this bike will fully charge in 20 minutes on a fast charger. Realistically in my experience jus the right time to visit the heads and have a coffee, perfect! But those chargers are hard to find.
Yup electricity is almost getting as expensive as petrol nowadays as well 🥴 I will be sticky with my Speedy 😁
That sounds a reasonable time for charging. I guess the energy companies will have to get their acts together in the next 13 years. And yes, I doubt fuel will be any cheaper. Whilst I would love to "silently" raise hell on the Energica, I think I'd better confine my Mr. Toad to a more genteel Maeving 😉
@@lilynorthover8378 OOO yes I love the look of the Maeving 👌 have been trying to get a ride on one for a while now! I shall keep persisting.
That would be brilliant 👊🏻
🤮. Petrol bike sales will go through the roof in the lead up to 2030.
Yup, there are going to be some amazing final editions to get your hands on!!
Pleasure to ride with you. Dm me
If you want to want to do some more rides in future bro
Was great fun 👌 Had a blast, and good to ride with someone I could learn a bit from! Cheers
I think if you get away from the RS model you can get the price down. Here in the US they are priced at 21,500
Yes the standard model in the UK is still near £27,000! Only about 1k cheaper than the RS.
I like the Eva but I really like the original bike the EsseEsse9 The riding position is better for me. The new motors they are using, the EMCE is designed by a company called MAVS that get more power, range and charging cycles from the engineering they have done. This is so much better motor then the ZERO. Harley has the Live Wire One, and if you get a change to ride that bike it will completely change your opinion on that bike. It’s amazing, the quality is off the charts. And the handling will surprise. They have actually made improvements and reduced the price of that bike and it’s down to 23800 here. But check this out, they are taking orders on there new bike, the Del Mar and it’s priced at 16900! The orders are staking up and it’s lighter and less costly to build but has awesome looks. I’ll send a link so you can see this. I’m sure your getting it as well.
@@shardie78239 Yes I suppose I cannot compare this Ribelle to many other electric bikes I have not ridden many others! But could definitely feel the quality of the battery and components.
I think the Live Wire is the best looking of the bunch and would love a ride on one. The new Del Mar looks brilliant, very reminiscent of the Indian FTR!!
Exciting times ahead 👍
@@redangrevival O yes it does look like the FTR! Have you seen the new FTR Sport? Wow what a machine. Its a masterpiece of design. These are exciting times!
@@shardie78239 Yes what a bold design!! Some great new bikes to be tested in 2023.
So, we put accesory exhousts for better sound and this one is having no sound at all 😒 it says everything about e-bikes for me. Also I still do not buy this concept of ineffective, super-heavy power supplies, made of huge amount of material that is not eco-friendly at all 😒 (interesting video though, thank you)
Thanks glad you liked the video 👍
I know right!! That is a huge point that I would really miss. The sound coming from your exhaust is a massive part of motorcycling, who knows what is really going to happen in the future. Cheers
😎👍👍👍😎
👍👌👍
I like your channel Red, but I will not watch anything to do with electric bikes. 'Thumbs up', anyway.
Fair enough! Thanks 👍
Fact Is electric just isn't ready yet. Also if you use a fast charger at mcdonalds or shell it's more expensive than petrol already!! My 1 mrs 1 litre yaris is cheaoer to run and gets alot further than any electric car. So what chance do we have in 10 years? Once government see the y aren't making as much on petrol they will tax electric.
Yup I think this bike does show that it is far too expensive for the average consumer! Who knows what the future holds. I hope we get to stick with petrol!!
ur a cutie pie!!
haha thank you!
@@redangrevival sure thing dream boat! ☺☺☺☺
EVs are not here to stay.
I can definitely understand the reasons why not! Very interesting to see what happens in the future
