Energica / Re: Burnt Rear Brake Twice – Adjusting SS9 Brake Pedal?
« on: September 06, 2025, 01:27:29 AM »
Unfortunately, the pedal angle can’t be adjusted enough to fix the issue. Does anyone know of an alternative brake pedal that can be set lower? Or has anyone managed to shorten the pushrod to the brake cylinder or replace it with a shorter one?

I understand the pushrod and brake pedal position is already maxed out, as described in owner manual?

Ever thought of lowering the footpegs with a mounting adaptor to get a more comfortable foot position and a larger knee angle?
You may also use this to tilt the footpegs & brake pedal a bit more.

Sure this depends if this is allowed by law in your country.
In Germany the "race control" (aka police and technical control) does not like it if you mess with brake & foot pegs.

Energica / Re: Low Beam Glitch
« on: July 31, 2025, 02:28:56 AM »
Both low beam failing at the same time or just one and then lights shut down after short time?

Could be one of the LED drivers. There are 4 in total, one for low beam, one for high beam, and this per head lamp.
I had that some years ago, got a new LED driver on warranty, but don't recall which error code I had and if both or just one beam was off.
The electronics monitors the power drain, if something is not as expected it shuts down the component, then both lamps should go out.

If you disassemble the front carrier you may switch low and high beam drivers and see if the fault moves to high beam.
Lot's of same cables and connectors in the carrier, properly mark them before you disconnect them.

As interim fix you may then use the high beam driver for the low beam.

System Reset: Ignition on, after system is up, push and hold Mode button and Set button for several seconds until system restarts.
During the restart it will cycle several relays (you'll hear them clicking).

Energica / Re: Experia and EE9 Service Manual
« on: February 20, 2025, 02:53:30 AM »
The link to the EE9 service manual on FB seems to be dead/unavailable?
Is there someone who would be able to re-share the EE9 service manual, maybe on other platform, not on facebook?

Energica / Re: Good News?

1 Millionen??
A handcrafted motorcycle... The numbers can't be right?!

In an interview with the German Motorrad magazine in October '24 Livia Cevolini mentioned that they have overall about 2000 customers worldwide.
Doing some maths - she also said they had about 1100 orders for the Experia, with less than half of them been produced.
This leaves then about 1500 bikes of the Eva/Ego-platform out in the wild.

IDK how the Italian laws operate. Here in Germany you can declare insolvency to get a first protection from creditors to be able to maybe get the company on track again.
So maybe it is not completey over RN.

The mechanical spare parts can be got on the free market. Only of the rear brake disc I don't know the Brembo spare part number yet.
But if the bike needs any electronic components, then we're fucked.

Hi,

looks like the shop will be liquidated. Manufacturing facilities, patents, and intellectual property will be sold to pay at least the outstanding employees salaries and taxes.

See (in german) https://www.motorradonline.de/ratgeber/energica-insolvenz-und-liquidation-ende-elektro-pionier/

Would not expect that anything will survive, and i doubt that they have large stock of spare parts someone could buy and build a parts service on the legacy.
Agree that mechanical stuff can be repaired or replaced somehow with others parts, and many standard components seem to be used by other ICE bikes.
There may be some larger dealers with a decent customer base who'll try to keep some small level of service running, e.g. to flash latest firmware again to reset electronic errors, but if something dies in battery or electronics noone will be able to replace and we're fu****.

Let's keep the community running and try to support us with knowledge sharing on solutions where possible.
Greetings from Munich, Jens

Energica / Re: P1027 error
« on: August 21, 2024, 04:21:50 AM »
According to manual P1027 is "Precharge Sequence Failed - Precharge Contactor Open Circuit".
Found this: https://evchargingexplained.com/precharge-and-stuck-contactors-in-hv-system-comprehensive-overview/ on EV Precharging incl. details on stuck open contactors.
There seems to be an internal switch or relay stuck open which prevents that the high voltage system is activated, most probably also the reason why charging fails.
I'm not an EV or electronics engineer, but this sounds bad.

Have you tried a full reset? This seems to activate several relays inside the battery.
Maybe something just needs a mechanical kick to get going again after long period of rest?

Energica / Re: No "Status Okay"?
« on: August 13, 2024, 01:20:56 AM »
And need to turn the key off to get rid of it. I assume that is normal.

hi,

no need to switch off the bike. Just push the mode button to the left and hold ~3 sec to get out of the diagnostic screen.

Energica / Re: Tail Bag for EVA RIBELLE ??
« on: June 07, 2024, 01:45:04 AM »
Hello good folk, would you happen to know any good tail bag that would fit my EVA? It's the most useful thing you can have on your bike just don't know which one to buy.
Thank ya

Hi FlyMig,

depends on your use case: do you want to use the tail bag instead of a tank bag, replace the soft cases, use for daily commute, for day or weekend trip, or just for the stuff you want to carry always with you?

I have a small Touratech tail rack bag on my Ribelle, fits with its slightly tapered shape quite well as tail bag on the passenger seat, has about 4 liter volume, can be extended to 8 liter.
I use it for a brake disc lock, tools to adjust the suspension, small can of chain lube, microfibre cloth, water bottle for the afternoon ride.
When extended big enough for a (short) Type2-charging cable or rain gear.

See https://www.touratech.com/tail-rack-bag-ambato-for-luggage-racks.html

Bit tricky to make sure it's not sliding of the tapered seat when using just a single strap. I used some hooks under the seat to run the strap through, with that the force is applied orthogonally to the sides of the seat and the hooks will hold the bag at its place. It's stable on autobahn speed and full acceleration.

Greetings from Munich,
Jens

Energica / Re: Ribelle - talk me out of it !
« on: May 31, 2024, 03:11:51 AM »
The motor does not generate a sound. The noise of the Energicas comes from the gears between motor and pinion and was made on purpose by Energica, see e.g. here
https://www.epaddock.it/en/motoe-2021-interview-with-giampiero-testoni-technical-director-of-energica/

Is the bikes' sound electrical or mechanical?
“It's mechanical. The sound of MotoE was born from a precise marketing requirement of the commercial models: the management didn't want the bikes to be silent. This choice was transferred in the track model. The sound is generated by the gears installed between the electric motor and the pinion. Although they are rarely used because they are noisy and more expensive to be manufactured, we chose spur gears because of the characteristic sound above 20km/h. This choice also has advantages from a technical point of view because spur gears don't generate axial thrust as happens with helical gears".

Energica / Re: Custom Gloves
« on: May 12, 2024, 06:01:17 PM »
You may also check gloves of the German manufacturer Held
US web site - https://rideheld.com/collections/gloves
They make many of their gloves in three different lengths (Short/Regular/Long).

(note: not affiliated with Held, just had several of their gloves over the years ... :-)

i think jotjotde created a excellent writeup on the Ribelle sprockets (specs and howto change) some time ago, check his post:

This post is about how I changed the front sprocket of my Ribelle. Most of this information was already posted somewhere, but it's hard to find, so I wanted to get all the relevant infos summarized in one go.

Energica / Re: Heart Beat function on my Energcia Esse Esse 9+ RS
« on: April 30, 2024, 01:56:30 AM »
Is it the standard black tank cover, or the optional carbon part?
The carbon tank cover has no LEDs or illuminated logo and no heart beat settings in the menu.

Energica / Re: Chain Ticking
« on: April 21, 2024, 03:12:29 AM »
Had something similar in the first months when i had my Ribelle, a ticking from somewhere in the drivetrain. That tick-tick-tick was changing with speed.

Thought it came from the axial play of the drive shaft and expected the worst (damaged transmission).
At the end it was an uneven lengthened chain, although the chain was just 1500km old and the free play adjusted correctly.
Probably the several hefty accelarations during a track day and a safety training within a few days damaged it permanently.
Got a new chain from the dealer on his own cost as it was still under warranty.
Recommend to get a complete new chain kit.

Best, Jens

Energica / Re: 7700 miles and I think I need new tires
« on: August 22, 2023, 02:53:41 AM »
Hi,

I have the Michelin Power 5 now for ~2k km on my Ribelle.

On low speed (in the city) it's feeling a bit more nervous than the Rosso 3, but it's traction, precision, stability, and cornering speed is great on higher speeds, also on rather bad roads.
No problems with acting traction control, also under full throttle acceleration (Track Mode, TC Level 1).
Can't tell about the mileage, but to be honest ... i don't care :-)

The Power 5 is definitely a recommendation.

Best, Jens
