I am in the market for buying a new MC, and currently I have the Zero SR/F 2020 model. I was considering updating to the 2022 model for a bit longer range, but there were few other improvements to be found. Then discovered there is a new Energica importer in Norway where I live now. So I started looking at their options as well.
A lot of people here have been mentioning Energica as a good choice, and I found the EsseEsse9 model to be quite close to the Zero SR/F in terms of your riding posture, which makes it comfortable for long trips, unlike their EGO. So, the EssEsse9 might be the best bet for a similar SR/F riding feeling?
It also seem to offer a better range and a few other improvements.
Anyone here has some experience with this MC, or some insight on how it would stack up against the SR/F?

EDIT:
After a lot of research and consideration, I decided to NOT change to an Energica, but hang on to the Zero a bit longer and see what the next generations of EMCs can deliver.
Energica seem to win on many points, the Zero SR/F also has many good points. It is hard to declare an objective clear winner, at least for my use (mostly shorter commute trips, with a few longer range trips).
But what is clear is that a change would cost more than 15.000 USD here in Norway, even when letting my dealer have the old bike. 15.000 to buy what benefit exactly? Hmm... It is hard to justify this cost, even though the additional range and faster charging would be very welcome.
Thanks for everyones input
