Energica / Steering Stiffness on Experia – Is It the Head Bearings?
« on: June 17, 2025, 12:55:15 AM »
Hi everyone,

I ride an Energica Experia, and lately I’ve been noticing a slight stiffness or binding in the steering, especially when turning the handlebars at low speed or while stationary. It feels like something might be sticking slightly, and I’m starting to suspect it could be related to the steering head bearings.

However, I’m not sure which specific bearings the Experia uses or what the correct part numbers are.

Has anyone experienced something similar? And does anyone know which steering head bearings are used on the Energica Experia?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Found some time and changed the chain.

WOW.

What a difference in noise level! Even when the stock chain was new which happens with new bikes ;), it was not THAT low. And those of you who ever changed a chain might also have noticed a lower noise.
I have the habit of thoroughly cleaning the chain after ca. 800-1.500km, depending on the road conditions and how dirty it looks. I do apply chain lube regularly, so I can say it does not lack any maintenance. I also realized after some 8.000kms that the chain had slight tendencies to become unevenly long - this also has added to the noise recently. Furthermore, also the larger sprocket 16T vs. the stock 15T will add to a low noise. Certainly not too much, but it definitely does.

Well guys, in case you consider a new chain - do it sooner than later! You will hear the difference!

Thanks for the feedback, I'll order mine now. Can you tell me which front sprocket(brand/model) you used?
