Guys, give them a chance - and remember that you are half a day behind. My call alone took 30mins instead if the planned 15mins. So when US is up & awake, there might be already a delay from the calls before. My impression was that Rob did factor in safety, but depending on how a call develops it still might lead to a delay.

If you are still interested, just schedule a new appointment using the link in your email invitation.

I know they haven't reached out to TPS in Raleigh, NC yet. Agree, going to be interesting to see what their plan is for getting work done on bikes if they aren't reaching out to dealers.

i wonder if they are just going to move everything to India and just run out of there mainly, like Zero is doing?
With no presence in the US, it makes one wonder what their official stance is?

Impossible to ignore the facts at this point.  Whoever it is that purchased Energica is incompetent.

The most average manager of any small business would be able to put together a business plan, timeline, and communicate the details even if they eventually fall short and run long.

This crew can't be bothered to even try and maintain the most limp level of enthusiasm.

Game over.  Sad but true.

Good luck with that.....heard similar from many others waiting for parts etc...Some have been waiting for more than 18 months....still no light at the end of the tunnel. Many of these bikes are now an expensive unuseable paperweight. Many of these people have had their bikes at a dealer which is now closed or gone out of business...what do they do..??

Energica has not even shipped the equipment to the supposed 'new shop' is the latest i have heard.  it's sitting in boxes on some dock somewhere.

I ask again, for anyone at Energica to answer.

What are you doing for cash flow, mainly cash coming in?

You crowd sourced the cash to get the company but it's going to take much much more than that to even open it back up let alone run it.
you shut down the only operating shop, the only source of income you really had, when you shuttered the San Fran office.  Hell you could even begin with flipping parts to get some cash flow going, have not even seen that.   You sent out a correspondence asking what parts we need, several replied, never to hear another word back from you.

none of the dealers have said they have heard a word from you about 're establishing' relations.  some people i have talked to are thinking you are getting ready to jump ship claiming that nobody supported you as your excuse, when you have not even reached out to any of them.

What's going on here?   for a company that is trying to restart their brand, you sure are not showing anything for it.,

hopefully you didn't just buy the company to intentionally let it fail because you needed the tax write off.

is there ANY update,besides,  wait ... soon.... in a little while..... soon......

Morgan, you had an official energica e mail,  do you still have a job or did they can you too when they let all the senior engineers, design folks, and core team go because they couldn't afford to pay them anymore?

in France. when I called him in december asking if he could take my bike, he told me that the new energica owners had recently contacted him about being back in business, so he was optimistic.

Me thinks it's fruitless to support the Ego, Eva series for further development...they are EV relics first launched in 2014...the new Energica owners should isolate this business unit and sell it or operate it for services only to support existing owners...Experia has hope as a baseline offering...place initial development efforts towards making a decent integrated center-stand and debugging software glitches and expand on active cooling maybe...stay focused on single motorbike objective / platform versus wasting resources in too many directions as was the case previously...EV interest has lost traction in the USA not sure about anywhere else.

Happy with my Eva.
Glad I have ICE bikes too.
This old goat ain't planning for any more bikes...particularly anything new.

Ev interest has not lost traction in the usa, not sure how you came up with that idea.

the Experia was well received, there is still a market for it, and their order books were full when ideanomics fucked them.
THAT platform is viable, get it going
the rest, agree, support them, there is still plenty of life in them as for maintenance and repair and eventual battery mod's changeouts etc but go another route possibly for hi perf bikes.  the tech while still top of the line that we have seen so far still.... is a decade old.

lightfighter seems to be the newest pretty boy on the block for the super bikes,  but anyways. maybe like a botique type thing where you custom build the bike if someone wants..

i just don't see energica coming back, they don't have the money and they sure as hell don't seem to have any sort of business sense or gameplan that we have seen.

real simple question.  WHAT is the status of shipping the parts to... ok they say singapore, that's a ruse imo to get past the us customs and shit, they are indian and want to operate out of india.... it's cheaper.....what are the plans on getting there.

where are the crates of parts.  do you have a tracking number(s)_
where are they going, do you even have a building picked out yet that you are going to set up shop in, that's not a storage unit, which iironically, is where they put the entire usa shop at.   The entire repair depot / facility etc that was in san francisco is in boxes rotting in a storage unit right now.  What little money they did have coming in, they killed.  What little customer support they were giving, they killed.

of the initial money you put up for this 'venture'  how much is left.  how much have you spent and on what?   you crowdsourced the money i was told by a few people. two of whom said they were members of the sourcing.  they will need to see where their money is going to.  well being a public business, you really need to show that stuff anyways.... where is your money going to, how much is left?  what are your plans on raising more capital to revive and grow the business. and don't just say, sell bikes, a written out step by step is generally required to get business loans etc etc.

so far we have seen nothing, really heard nothing but muffled fluffing of feathers and hen house squabbling here and there.  been told any day now it's starting back up, videos incoming, a new game plan hatching right now.... and we hear crickets....

more and more it's looking like you clowns graduated from the lightning school of enterprising.

just an opinion.
