When will there be no waiting list?
« on: August 17, 2021, 10:49:52 AM »

When will I be able to walk into CA Moto in Livermore, CA  and buy a Rebelle with the new motor, with the bikes in stock, no waiting list?


Are there any clues yet?


I will have to trade in an ICE bike as I don't have the room for 11 bikes after selling one of my houses.

When supply exceeds demand?

Honestly, it's not a good thing when there are bikes sitting around to be of choice.  That's alot of money just sitting around.

Yep, like when I purchased my SS9 two years ago. They then had all tree models in stock in  Mtn.  View.

Of course there are clues...battery pack is designed for fit and function and not really adaptable to automation unless the cells groupings are modularized internally (me doubts it based on the 13.5kw patent illustrations) hence the bottle neck but the technology is changing and Energica needs to do better w/ systems design and get a grip on thermal management...it's a tough spot to be in.  The industry is turning away from NCM so no, investing in automation sometimes is not the best call either...

If you want one better contact them asap.   I just put a deposit down on an ego+ rs shipment arriving in november.  I don't think they have the capital to meet demand so you just gotta call.  They may have one more open slot.  Contact laurence @ energica.

Welcome! I see this is your first post here.


 I am in no hurry. I can wait and not interfere with those who really want to buy one soon. 


I am quite happy with my 2020 SS9-.   Even has enough range for me in most areas, now that there are many CCS stations in most areas I ride. I am usually ready for a break before I run out of juice as it is.  So I can l wait a while and see what happens.

Depends how fast they expand their production line and how soon they get the shipping into the west coast unstuck.  With the shipping situation, maybe they'll be shipping via east coast soon?  Trucking them past the Austin Tesla factory maybe?

Togo are you certain that container has been delivered? I ordered in early October, and of course anxious for all news. Keep me posted.

Is this caused by the COVID thing?

I think the biggest issue is the volume of traffic through the ports. I order a Ribelle on October 16th.

The dealer was told by Energica 10 days ago that the containers were offloaded from the ship and in the dock. Alas 7 days later the bike is stiil at the dock. not sure if waiting on customs, transportation or something else.
The biggest issue for me is the general lack of information the dealer is getting from Energica on progress and possible delivery dates.

Keeping fingers crossed it won't be much longer.

Don't feel too bad.  I ordered my Eva Ribelle at the end of August and I'm still waiting.  The last word I had from Energica a couple of weeks ago was that it left Italy around the middle of October and was still on the water.  I'm hoping that it shows up before the end of the year but I'm not holding my breath.

After watching all of the YouTube videos and reading the forums, I'm sure the wait will be worth it.

I'm surprise you guys aren't in contact with Energica directly or even Arie from Calmoto.  Anyway bikes just cleared customs.  If you didn't order any fancy MY2023 colors then you'll get it soon.  As for me, I have to wait for the Tri-color fairing.  But atleast I should be able to physically touch the bike in the warehouse soon!

But why wasn't this a problem in the past?  When I bought my 2020 SS9, they had all three is stock for months waiting for buyers.

Is the larger battery increasing demand that much?
