@SebfromBE if you manage 170km on 10,6 kWh nominal as an average, kudos for your wrist discipline. Are you from Belgium Btw?

Thanks for the feedback and insight on the new model!

Yes I am from Belgium and the 170 figure is mostly because I use it as commuter mostly on national road... So more or less perfect conditions to get most range out of the battery for sure.

With all these advices... Sounds more and more reasonable to spend the extra bucks and go directly for the updated modeL... Let's sleep on it for a week. I will also need good arguments for my wife :-)

Thx all!

Hi Seb, I'm from Belgium too and I recently bought an Esseesse9. You must be very disciplined to get these numbers... Expect less on the Energica because it really teases you to misbehave ;) even in rain mode I tend to find myself over 130km/h on 90 roads. It's the noise that made me do it, officer ;)

Interesting! I am basically decided to go for the new Eva model with the big battery. I just mail my order to the dealer. Waiting for him to confirm the order now...

I actually had a chat with the European sales manager about the new bikes. He expect an order placed now should lead to a delivery around ~ March-April. Fine with me if they stick tohthe timing. This way I have time to sell properly my current Zero, and weather will hopefully be just perfect for the first rides :-)

Dryhte: How was your experience with the dealer? Did you just buy one of the 2019 remaining model then? I actually found him OK but not fully responsive...

Cheers,

Seb

I also expect that indeed there is/will be a clear relationship between 'more power = less range :-) ' from the Eva test drive, it seems clear it will be though to keep the beast tamed!

I bought from Electric Motorcycles Zeeland, found them very responsive and eager to offer me test rides, or a rental which would be refunded if I bought. Never took them up on this last thing though ;) They're closer to my home than the dealer around Leuven.

Very happy with the bike, but I'll probably keep my Strom for longer trips.

Order confirmed!

Dark grey Eva ribelle :-)

They are currently quoting for a March delivery. According to the Euro-area sales manager, they are getting a quite good inflow of order.

Congrats Seb!

I still have to book my test ride but since the single BE dealer didn't have test bikes they forwarded me to Zeeland also. I'll probably wait for spring to actually book a test ride. Then the new models should be available for testing. And by then I'll know if my SRF was ever fixed or not :D.

Hi Hans,

Interesting. So He did not have anymore the 2019 Eva as test ride?

I rode the SRF few days before trying the Eva. It makes it quite easy to feel the difference in build quality/ride experience. Of course there is still a clear price difference here in BE.

I'll update this tread once I get my model. Long wait still => It's going to be a tough winter :o

Okay maybe I misunderstood then. A mont ago I contacted them and then they didn't have it but I could test ride the existing models. March then was probably the date he gave for first deliveries of the new model.

Looking forward to your findings!
