I've seen what Sam said but I agree with Morgan, from my own experience adding a windscreen does nothing noticeable to the range. Tested on an SRF and an SS9+. I got more range by tucking behind the windscreen but that also worked by just tucking in behind an imaginary windscreen .

Also on the other statement I'm with Morgan here. Zero gives the exact same range numbers for SRF and SRS. The only thing they claimed at some point is that by tucking in you get more range on the SRS. That claim can be made for the SRF also.

Anyhow that's all no comparison as the SRS has fairings compaired to the SRF, not just an added windscreen. The analogy here would be to compare an SRF with and without windscreen.

I am not saying I agree but Zero DOES claim it.

When looking at the SR/S on the official website then scroll down a little and it says...

"Inspired by cutting edge aerospace design, the look of the SR/S is rooted in its aerodynamic fairing. Like all things Zero Motorcycles, form follows function. When you lean into the cockpit and get behind the fairing you will be rewarded with a 13% improvement in highway efficiency and range with the SR/S versus its award-winning sibling, the SR/F. Sit up and you’ll discover a more upright and relaxed riding position that feels as good as it looks."

One could argue that you'd have to lie flat on your stomach with legs stretched backwards to get to those 13%

There, I knew I'd seen it officially claimed somewhere.
