Hey all.
I'm came out to ride my zero back home from  work but am getting a very strange and rather scary set of warning lights.

As said in title, after keying on, the warning light blinks twice, pause, blink again, then the headlight turns off and then back on, the charge light blinks, and then it starts again.

Anyone ever seen this? I'd like to make it the 22 miles home, but am worried about a breakdown.

The system warning indicator blinking two-one is a contactor error fault. Did you hear the contactor close and did the dash eventually turn on properly? If not, try keying off, count slowly to 20, then key on again and see if the error repeats. The "solution" is to contact Zero or your dealer. Hope it works out.

I had a incident not too long ago where is seemed liked my contactor had locked up and the warning light behaved like you described.  My dealer buddy removed and reinstalled the main #1 fuse and that reset whatever was wrong and the bike has been fine ever since.  See link below for more details.
