Energica / Re: Experia with a belt drive....an experiment.

I was thinking the FX where you just kick it over onto a convenient patch of dirt, but yeah lack of center stand (and fragile chin fairing) would make it more difficult on the energicas.

I'd be looking around to see if you can loop a spare belt through the swing arm and zip tie it out of the way. Then roadside repair is just remove the remains of the first belt, slide the wheel forward (or partially remove for clearance), loop on the spare, and re-tension.

I don't recall if this was suggested on the thread earlier, but I recall it on various Zero discussions and have seen it in practice for lawn mowers/boats/etc.

Put me on the list if you end up sending a couple kits to the USA. Happy to chuck some USD towards group buy/shipping.

Already got the experia track days out of my system, but plenty of commute miles planned.

awesome setup!
you mentioned the process for adapting the rear sprocket to bolt on the pulley, but not the front.
Did you end up doing the chop&weld approach or were the bmw splines able to be massaged to fit?

edit: Do you have to pull the swingarm pivot bolt to mount up? That was mildly annoying on the zero belts.

Took the experia to a tight technical track, absolutely roasted my pirelli supercorsas in about 2 days of b-group pace and scraped the pegs a few times.
These heavy bikes with lots of torque are death to soft tires when ridden in anger. 

Can't imagine the EVA/EGO/SS9 would be any nicer to tires  ;D

Energica / Re: What is this bar for on the Experia

If I like it that way better, then I will wonder if it is possible for me to get such a bar for my 2023 Experia.

At least one still available, might be a box of them on the shelf at energica USA too.

yeah, it was the GPS mounting bar accessory. can't recall if I paid for it or the dealer just chucked it in the box with the charger and other accessories...
Either way, I installed it on the Launch Edition after getting the bike home.

Happy with my pit-bull stands for wheel swap.  Spools on the swingarm and a #20 pin on the headstock lift.

The supersprox RST-7091 is a hybrid with steel teeth and aluminum center, and I think it's only "off the shelf" up to 49 or 50 tooth.
I've not seen that size in stock anywhere and it's probably the wrong direction for off-road gearing, though maybe you can compensate with -1 tooth front and adjust chain.

Or you can pay and wait for them to do a custom size order (just received a 52t aluminum from them)

make sure the key is in the unlocked position then lean on the smaller button. Mine are quite stiff, but that's preferable to flopping around on the rack.

Ordered a custom superprox aluminum 52T rear (they produce 49/50t options with the stock already)
Gambled [ and LOST] on a 16t front from the aprilia 660s since I have one floating around the garage already. If the splines/offsets work out [they don't], that's an easy replacement vs the "special" 520 size sprockets for the RSV4.

If I'd thought the whole exercise through, I'd have gone for a 15t front and one of the 49/50t supersprox for similar gearing change and not paying the custom order price/delay penalty.

Now I get to twiddle my thumbs for a month or two.

Edit: the aprilia 660s (tuareg/tuono/rs) have different spline count and offset. Zero compatibility.

Energica / Re: Experia/GIVI side case framework
« on: October 21, 2024, 02:32:03 AM »
I've been fighting the front fasteners on the top rack plate (between the rack and the passenger seat).
Have to reapply blue threadlock and tighten every 500-1000mi. Need to figure out if I can get better solution long term.
Maybe switch to red or longer fasteners with a bonus nylock.

I'd be more concerned about "two services" in 699mi, haha.

Of course the KSTool socket is available again.
Just got the other brand a week or two ago... https://www.ebay.com/itm/155273043925
at least it isn't $200!

Energica / Re: What spools are you using on your Experia?
« on: July 10, 2024, 08:09:01 AM »
I'm using the pitbull racing's 8mm spool, I ordered the version with the 0.6in spacer but I think I shortened it to about 0.3in. If I was to do it again, I'd probably aim for 0.4 or 0.5in. 
You need some amount of standoff for these spools because there's a counterbore that requires a small diameter insert. Mine are short enough to fit, but the lifting fork can hit the swingarm when lifting from the side stand.
