Wow, people really take this way too personally, but really It's because of the naysayers the electric engine has to constantly prove itself capable. Progress is a good thing, and macho bs won't change the fact that the electric engine has improved more in ten years than the combustion engine has done in a hundred. In the end the transition to Electric vehicles will probably just come down to pricing rather than measuring dicks with the established frontliners of motosports.
Haha sooo true, I've test driven an Energica Eva, my God.... Best experience on a motorcycle ever, Every ICE bike after that feels like going back to the stone age :-)
I have improved at basketball in the last 10 years much more than Lebron James has. But that doesnt mean I'm better than James at basketball. I'm still shit compared to him.
Wicked bike. Extra points for the Captain America quote at the end ; ) When they can bring the weight down even more, bring down the price and give it a nicer colour scheme, this thing's gonna sell like hot cakes with peanut and butter, jam and banana all over it =P
I was really surprised by the bike. I'm normally a weight weenie and try to get bikes that are as light as possible but this bike doesn't feel anywhere near the stated weight. I fell in love with it and got one and it handles and brakes very well.
For those that are wondering. As soon as the HP4 hits the powerband, the electric will be smoked, simply because that's how physics work. Horsepower is a measure of work, more horsepower means more work done in the same time frame. The BMW has higher horsepower which means it can make more work in the same amount of time. The electric has instant torque, which means that it will have higher horsepower up to its peak of 150HP at around 4.7k rpm. The stock hp4 breaks even at 10k rpm which means that after that it will just furiously pull away. Assuming that rider knew what he was doing and it was a full on 1/4 mile run, by the time he shifted from 1st to 2nd gear, he should fall above that break even mark and the e-bike would have its ass handed to it. Why would that happen you might ask? Because it only revs up to 4.7k rpm, that's why. It makes so much fucking torque only to rev so low... it's a waste. Not to mention it's 81kg HEAVIER than a stock trim HP4. This means that it should start catching up before it even reaches 10k rpm. See the problem here? I do support the notion of electric bike, but it needs to be done right. Staging race that are less than 100m long just to prove a point isn't gonna make people like electrics, people aren't as stupid as you'd like them to be. EDIT: Disregard what i said about break even point... The electric makes 136HP, i thought it made 150, i got confused... this is even worse for it then...
hahaha no. you are giving battery technology way to much credit. EV bikes are not even close to being a viable thing even in 2022. you can't make a bike weigh as much as you want. there are limits to weight and size meaning you can't make the range good. these bikes weigh a fuck ton already so there ain't really much more room for more battery and the battery technology is progressing slowly and is not gonna progress that much more. electric vehicles already run pretty efficiently so there also ain't much more efficiency to get out of the electric motors.
It makes even more power now, I think it has over 150hp for 2018. 0-60mph should be closer to 2.8 seconds. When this company or Zero is bought out or when it receives a large investment from a scared petrol powered motorcycle company that hasn't been doing it's battery class homework, they'll hopefully become true liter bike competitors on track too!
nah EV bikes have a major problem which is weight and size. you can't fit more batteries in it because there ain't no more space and there ain't no more margin for weight. the more you weigh the worse it will corner. the range on a EV bike is not good and will not be good for a extremly long time. + EV bikes have no soul

New quote for their video: "I live my life 10 feet at a time, just trying not to spill my soy milk, and for those couple seconds or less, I feel less like a female"
New energica has already lost to bmw 1000 rr or something. I think they tweaked it down purposefully. I'm not an expert, just saying through observations 🤷🏻♂️
I have a 2014 Tesla P85 and a Zero SRF 15.6. Looks like the P85 was the nearest to the Energica not bad for an old bird . In my experience its the 0-30 thats so good in the classic RWD P85 my Zero is as quick if not quicker than the P85 so probably quicker that the Energica here. Probably the latest Energicas quicker again as EVs rapidly getting better. My Tesla was updated over the air 4.2 0-60 to 4.0 0-60 feels even quicker but neat trick
Fino a quando non verranno fatte batterie con nuove tecnologie sta cosa rimarrà confinata nell'ambito dei fenomeni da baraccone. Sarà molto difficile che l'elettrico soppianti i motori termici anche perché maggior capacità delle batterie equivarrebbe a maggiori tempi di ricarica. A meno che non si possano mettere pile atomiche tipo quelle dei satelliti spia. Il che lo trovo piuttosto difficile e costosetto. ;)
Some of the match ups were dumb like the Zero S. Why not do the SR? It was cool to see the difference but you picked vehicles where it was already known Energica would win.
That's cool for an electric bike but i like my exhaust tone. Let's people know I'm there and its like a wolf call when i hear it from other bikes in the distant lol.
Except it’s also a call to the cops as well. I prefer stealthy speed over waking the entire neighborhood. I’ve been riding electric moto since 2016 and a Performance Tesla since 2018 and launching at insane speeds without alerting the police definitely has its pluses. ⚡️💨 👮 💤
electricity powered vehicles are the future, only hurdles to overcome would be charging for long time use and EMP pulse's which will totally disable the electric vehicle
Any EMP that cripples an electric vehicle would also cripple any ICE vehicle with fuel injection or any other controllers onboard. Agreed on the charging though, but it's getting better with every new generation!
Psychotic Knight let’s not forget overheating through extended high power usage. There is a way around that, but that would invoke a maintenance schedule FAR worse than any ICE vehicle
nah EV can't power airplanes and can't power cargo ships and can't power motorcycles. they weight to much and offer to little range in return. also we don't have endless amount or resources for EV's . they will be here for a while and will be mixed in with ICE but the ICE engine is not going anywhere. fossil fuels will disappear but there are other fuels out there. our towns entire garbage truck fleet run on diesel made from the old food we throw out. we got these little green baggy that we are suppose to use as food trash bags and they then get sorted out att the recycling plants and then turned in to diesel. EV works for cars and city driving semi trucks because they can afford the extra weight and already have room for the battery. a bike don't have the room and can't afford the extra weight. a cargo ship can't afford the extra weight and size because by the time it has enough range it can't actually load anything. same with airplanes. to much weight to lift off (smaller hobby aircrafts can but they are extremely light and can't really take much extra cargo)
porque no ponéis vehículos a la altura , como el tesla rodaster del 2021 el tesla model s plaid plus un bugatti osea vehículos que den la talla no ponerlo tan fácil con vehiculos lentos
Well to a degree but when you consider MotoE will have a race distance of 5 to 10 laps depending on track length then you see how efficient the combustion engines are.
Brem - that comes directly from the battery . The motor is what I am talking about . It's the most efficient type of motor . Battery tech still has a way to go .
che piaccia o meno il futuro e' giusto che sia elettrico anzi io direi piu' solare...perche' l'elettricita' in futuro diventera' come il petrolio...diventera' sempre piu' cara!! percio' auspico uno sviluppo di mezzi che vadano a energia solare..
Shahriar Rahman didn't seem to get away very well off the line. I think this video is promoting electric over gas. That bike should be screaming with the front wheel almost off the ground. My f800gs could match that with 0-60mph ( 3.84.sec)
I’ve rode both. The Enérgica’s are quicker and faster. More speed, more torque, more range, charge faster, better cooling, better components, and built better.
Thumbasher there are only 3 prototypes of the lightning. Not even close to the production. No type approval, no street legal. This is a full production bike, with world wide homologation and dealer network.
How many? Approx. 390. It does 0-60 in 3 seconds for an average acceleration of 20mph/s which corresponds to a force of approx. 20mph/s*700lbs = 2800N which corresponds to the power 2800N*velocity = 2800N*20mph/s*t which integrated over time from 0 to 3 seconds yields 2800N*20mph/s*(3s)^2/2 = 0.03kwh. The Ego has a 11.7kwh pack which means you can do 11.7kwh/0.03kwh = 390 such runs. You're welcome!
This is just rubbish the Bmw didn’t even peak second gear and your telling me that’s a 1/4 mile drag race???? Must think we are idiots or blind. Do a proper race if you want to boast what an electric engine can do and watch as it fails miserably!
I like how it has a quarter mile quote at the beginning and they do a 10 ft race
Gotta make the E bike win...
Yeah! Let's make a video of a 10 meter-race... yeah, exciting, yes... at least do a quarter mile to prove any point!!
If you think that's a 10 meter race then you need to get your eyes checked.
10 meters is 30.3 feet
@@mtlnascarfan that's irony
400m = 0.25 miles. I don't think the battery last for more than 400m at that discharge! ;)
top speed is limited because of battery discharge but when it comes to torque/acceleration its one of the best.

Nice last one comparison.... Electric Car : Tesla Model S P85D vs Electric Motorcycle : Energica Ego
Lovely! Would have been good to get a Zero SR and Tesla P100D with Ludicrous mode for best comparison, but still an excellent set of matchups.
Once they move on from lithium ion batteries, petrol bikes will go the way of the VCR.

distance is too short, for quarter mile and more s1000rr will be the winner
which is totally relevant here, but not in day to day traffic where 99% of your riding and driving is done
Fatih Karaca 400m are 400m how can 1m shorter than another?
