How bad is the top-heavyness?  Worse than a full safari tank?

Are you going to buy a set of 17" wheels for a big supermoto setup?

[NoMoreIdeas]

There are a bunch of ultra fast bikes that don't have supersport ergo. Zeros really aren't that fast. I like my FXS because it's stealthy and useful and FUN but even in supermoto terms it's neither quick nor fast.

You gotta deathify it. A DeathFX can and will shame almost everything in acceleration.

We might need a deathify fx thread. I'm increasingly interested in eventually doing the swap and have a ton of questions. Does it still have the same 0-30 lull of the SR given its the same powertrain?

[MVetter]

Jesus no. It tries to flip you over backwards from 0-80 unless you actively fight it.

Is there any way to get rid of the 0-30 lull?

I could use some more acceleration in the DSR if its possible.

Wasn't sure if you are asking me or Morgan.

If you had someone who is trained and knows what they're doing remap the SevCon there is a lot of room for the bike to become peppier. Also, and this should go without saying, battery temperature and SoC will play a big factor into acceleration. If it's cold or low SoC it'll be noticeably sluggish. Worse yet if both.

[Jarrett]

Where would I find such people?

[NEW2elec]

Mvetter is being coy.  They need to post some videos of their "death" bikes though to show what can be done.  I'm pretty certain death mapping would void your warranty so you'd need to wait a few years.

Jarrett there is or was a "more torque" gearing kit that Zero offered but you lose top speed.  Also your a big guy and you can't break the laws of physics so your range and acceleration will be worse than Zero's, and other riders, posted numbers.

[MVetter]

Mvetter is being coy.

That is definitely part of it, but legitimately DO NOT mess with the SevCon if you don't know what you're doing. It is very easy to put values in that will endanger the rider. Example? After 15mph the thing accelerates and doesn't stop regardless of rider input. Or, even simpler, bike does full acceleration backwards.

But yeah here's my SR with some spicy tuning doing 0-60 in 3.00 flat.
