I guess this is what MVetter implied, at least I read it that way.

It was the "more power delivered" that I disagreed with. There is only more power delivered if it is called for. Not a drop of more power will be delivered even if it's a billion amp battery if the bike hardware is not changed (not counting the small voltage drop possible from acceleration--a higher amp battery won't drop voltage as much).

I want that larger battery.  I don't want to change anything else on the bike except even faster charging (possible with a larger battery when CCS is being used) and also the range calibration which range will be almost double at the same battery voltage.

I also WANT that bigger battery.   
Sadly I also want to retire in a few years and I can't be buying electric motorcycles every few years.

How depressing!

Yeah I need to start one of those "buy this for me" funds like the kids do now days.

Side note, I have watched this video a few times and I don't see the "21" sticker.  Can someone tell me where it's at on the bike.

I also  didn't see it. I wish somebody would say how many seconds into the video they saw it.

Besides, I don't think Energica has been putting their KWHs on the batteries in the past. Or I have not noticed it on my SS9. That 21 may not even be the KWH. But I hope it is!

Thanks. but now I am curious what it says to the right of the one.

I hope it's something like a ".9 KWH" to the right of that one.

I think we'd all be deliriously happy even if it said .0

[NEW2elec]

Thanks for the photo skills.

I'd really be deliriously happy if there were no decimal point at all. 

I hope I live to see it.

I sent an email to Energica requesting more information:
Specifications
Range
Expected delivery date
Approximate price
Etc.

I have not yet heard back from them…

Question: is this the new “Ego” model?
The title of the YouTube video calls it an Energica “Missile”.
I thought maybe they had a whole new model coming out :-)
JK - I see the label “Ego” on the bike… Maybe “missile” is just a nickname :-)

missile means rocket in Italian ...

What makes you think they'll privately email you instead of waiting 5 days for EICMA

Read about the Energica  Ego Corsa here. 20 KWH battery. But perhaps 21 KWH for 2020. But will it be available for other models?

Looks like it's for their racetrack bike.

In the video the bike had a rear plate holder and all the lights needed to be street legal.
Sounds like an announcement will be coming shortly.
If they have 21 kWhs AND it's overall lighter then grazies are in order.

It means rocket in English, too.  It also means tossed item, as well.
