After spending many hours trying to work out the cause of the rattling on a 2020 Turbo Levo I've found it to be the battery, test riding it with the battery out has finally proved to be the only way to get rid of the rattle.
Does anyone know how to silence it ? The battery bolt has been tightened to the correct torque.

Just ordered some foam weather stripping.
The Levo has done 8000km so maybe the plastic spacer has worn.
I'm not sure how long I've been putting up with this rattling as it has probably come on gradually over time.

Ive been trying to track down a rattle, only noticeable over washboard type terrain.
Its been bugging me for a while, especially since buying a ksl which is very quiet in comparison.
Even a new battery rattled.
What fixed it for me was a bit of inner tube under the expander on each side.
This is on a kenevo.
Silence 🙂

I have put foam weather stripping in the same place that you've put the inner tube. It seems to have sorted it out but now the bike is making mental noises in other places instead
