Energicas are louder than you might imagine if you've only ridden Zeros or e-bicycles...

Wow, that moto-e distills it down to pure skill and tactics, doesn't it?

Really good compilation video. Bonkers racing. I don't know why people bemoan the lack of "brumm" noises, the racing is great.

Street riding instead of racing, but Energica motorcycles aren't quiet. While they're not loud compared to slip-on exhausts, they're definitely louder than stock exhaust when accelerating or decelerating. They have a distinctive sound, and people tend to take notice so I think it really helps with riding safely on the streets.

With regen, i've mistaken my own Energica's whine for police sirens after accel/decel/accel/decel : - )

I've made that mistake before. I typically have noise canceling earbuds on so it helps a bit.

The first two races of the season are done.  I was wondering why I didn't see Bradley Smith's name as I'd heard he was returning this year.  Apparently he's still recovering from this:

Start line crashes are usually the worst.
