I actually JB Welded my levers back together when some thieves broke them off, was good enough for the couple of days it took to get them in.

@Stonewolf,  or just idling,  maintenance throttle or gliding down it's making noise, yah it's time to tighten.
BUT on the other hand, if you are at idle and you are walking the bike or going real slow and can feel the bump bump of the motor poles, then it's too tight, you over tightened it,  back it off a flat or 2.

You know, after seeing all these people replacing brake levers, I don't feel so stupid anymore.
Ive just said F it, Ill leave it busted off at the tip, the last time I changed it, probably less than a month later, I tipped it at the track rolling it down the trailer, hit sand and it slid, front brake did NOT hold on the ramp, front end turned and shore nuff'  yep, busted the fkn brake lever off again at the tip!   As long as I have something workable to grab, which I do, Im good man!

I'll be honest, when racing, Id rather have a nubby brake lever, that I can one or two finger, that way it's more of a lift and slide the finger over a tad to engage the brakes, instead of having to work up and around the entire damned thing.  The whole lever gets in the way,  a nub in the corner, is really,  a lot better!!  Just my opinion, but if one gets a chance, really should try it.   Especially the EGO Corsa, the brakes you look at them and they engage!  There really isn't a whole lot of leverage needed, just a nice gentle finger squeeze.

The first update with the new app version takes a dealer, then we can do our own. They updated mine while I drank espresso in their cafe'.

Regarding noisy chain:

Upwards from approx. 30 km/h the gear is the loudest part on my Ribelle. If you ask me, Energica put this spur-toothed gear on the bikes to expressly generate a sound, which I like very much (had a Zero SR/F before).

BTW, nice side effect: If you can hear the chain at 20 km/h it has to be replaced.


Yes sorry of course its the "straight cut or something" gear and not the chain itself. 
At higher speeds it's just mainly windnoise just like many other bikes.

Yeah, once the chain starts to clatter on rolloff it's a convenient indicator that you need to tighten it up. It's a consistent thing I bring up when people talk about losing gears and exhaust which is your limited attention (however much of it you have) is freed up to concentrate on all the other stuff you were missing.
