Putting Energica on the Track

How did the Energicas do on the Track? Last SMRI Track Day for the 2022 Season

Last track day of the 2022 season with SMRI at Sandia Speedway in Albuquerque New Mexico was very special and really fun for several reasons:
1. Kraut Racing (sponsored by OCD Custom Cycles & Auto Repair) brought the demo Energicas to put on the track!
2. It was the last track day of the 2022 season so there was an especially large turnout filled with friends and the weather was beautiful.
3. We had just prepped a new customer’s bike for the track and she was there with her husband and had a really good time. Franny’s friend Adah brought a friend from work who pitted with us – new folks on the track!
4. Franny was back on the track after having both hips replaced this year. Truly a miracle.
Marc with the Energica Eva Ribelle

Above Marc with the Eva Ribelle. He liked the up-right handle bar position for the track. Much easier ergononically to immediately adapt to the track. This bike was not the RS version so the power was also easier to control.

Below, Marc on the Ego + RS. He said even though this bike is made for the track, the forward position was something to get used to and the power was to be greatly respected! He ended up loving this on the track!

The Esse Esse9+ RS needed a firmware update so he did not take it on the track. Stay tuned for next track day in Arizona.
