To the contrary you will lose 11% acceleration.

It sounds like you're heavy into off road,

the FX-S with TKC80 tires

I have a bike for the dirt riding I do.  This Zero will see gravel roads slowly at most.

I have considered the FXS/TKC80 combo.  My daughter rides a Honda NC700X with 17" TKC80's on it and that bike is a hoot at 65 mph on a gravel road.

Oh than really your golden on any of the bikes.  I took my old DS on field and woods trails big enough for 4 ATVs and it was fine.  It pulls up hills like there is a winch on the front.  It would be really heavy to push or backup though, and I did sink into some very wet grass/mud parked one time and couldn't walk it out seated.  But a twist of the throttle solved that issue too.
