Hope I'm not hijacking the thread.
I like my Harleys most especially the LiveWire - all of them have been fun to ride and reliable: none have (yet) left me stranded by the roadside even on literally transcontinental rides (LA to Key West, Phoenix to Daytona etc.) I can't say the same for 2 of my past 5 V8 bikes

But I've never ridden any motorcycle in over half a century that I could take all the way to all its limits, so racing pedigree is not so important to me as perhaps to others.
...but back to the point, which is - had Energica (and possibly Zero) had dealer support in NZ, I might have gone for one of them; probably not Zero as they seemed profoundly disinterested when they heard I was in NZ and was asking what tech support they could or would provide if I imported privately. Bearing in mind I was looking at a new Zero at that time. Energica still have no presence here other than private imports. Nor even in Australia : the closest is in Indonesia (and I stopped working in Jakarta 21 years ago!)
...but perhaps (am I being unfair) are Energica a little like Ducati / MV Agusta: i.e. lovely bikes and very fast but neither the bikes nor the manufacturer go out of their way to support high-mile riders and aftermarket mods and accessories. Still, if / when Energica open a dealership in NZ then as long as it is in the North Island I would be very interested. Right now I remain entirely happy on the LW. And as I've said before, I do not mind at all having a scarce and desirable-looking high-tech bike to do errands on haha.
