fourteenfour Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 Their objectives were good for a few years back. 100 mile range and 3.6 to 60mph is nothing. Yeah, its a bit lighter than than an Energica Ego but it has a third less range and is slower. I am not sure the Triumph is actually better than a Zero except for charging capability. The Livewire does 0-60 in 3.12 per Cycle World and the Zero was 3.7 to 60. If Energica had a dealer in my city I would likely own one. Link to comment
DeadEye Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 It might be fine as a track bike with 100 mile range, or a local “Grocery getter” Ill bet that 20 minute charge isn’t on 110v ? What does it need - 220v 30 / 50Amp ? fourTeenFour - Do you need a 2 sec 0 - 60 ?? No gears, no sound takes away half ( or more ) of the riding experience,… sorry it’s not All blasting about a Light speed ! Link to comment
fourteenfour Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 I don't need or even want the speed. Simply pointing out that their numbers are wholly unimpressive. Unimpressive for even a few years ago. What I want is a RT equivalent with three hours ride time at freeway speeds. The wind protection of the RT would actually improve range and of course the bags make the bike used. My joke with my Harley friends is I would love a real Electric Electra Glide. Link to comment
