Cory West will be racing an SR/F up Pike Peak:

How's THAT for "Exciting??"https://www.asphaltandrubber.com/racing/2019-pikes-peak-international-hill-climb-entry-list/

I wonder if H-D will try to field a LiveWire?  That would make for good publicity for that bike and maybe help to boost initial sales.

I doubt it.  If it is only capable of 110 miles of city riding, it'll either never make the top, or will go so slowly to conserve power that it'll be a major embarrassment for them.

Pikes Peak is a big deal....  AND I really don't think Zero is going in to be embarrassed....  So, I'm thinking they have have jumped the shark with the new bike !!!!  Hopeful....

This is telling that the SR/F will be a very capable motorcyle in more ways than just power and range.

They sent another 2.25.19 teaser email with no new info in it.. the wait is killing me!

[DaveinFL]

Well at least they gave us a silhouette...more to guess about. Based on the size of the tank, looks like a bigger battery? Also more upright ergo's, no clip-ons...

Top is SRF, bottom is 2019 S. 

Tank shape is different
Tail is changed - looks like a rear tire licence plate holder
Shock is different

[DPsSRnSD]

Looks to me like the storage cover is shaped to support the rider's upper body.

Here is the latest pic brightened up a bit:

The email I received today was similar but says more info 5.2.2019. I'm hoping that's not a US date format. (I'm in the UK, so to me that's 5th Feb and not 2nd May.) To be honest it's probably a mistake and is still meant to be 25th Feb.

[GaryArt1]

No my email in the US states more details on 2.05.2019.  Guess we got 2 more weeks anticipation to find out more.

[BenderEmf]

Looks like the tail has been chopped ever so slightly. Also I notice the tank doesn't seem to have a J1772 inlet, so I guess F doesn't mean "fast charge."

It also obviously doesn't mean "fully faired" either. (This was my personal hope, so shucks.)

I guess at this point it must mean "fighter"?

Edit: On second thought, those sneaky rascals could have moved a J1772 plug to underneath the seat or something. Hard to tell if the SR/F has a split seat... maybe it does, and maybe that's why. Anyway I'm not holding my breath, I think the F means fighter from this point forward.

[NEW2elec]

Yes looks like it could hold a 7.2 long brick power tank so maybe a 21.6 battery.  If that break line in the tank is a lid for a storage area than I guess they listened to my suggestion about using all that empty plastic space of the current tank.  Or could be just a cover for the long awaited CCS plug. 
Only draw back I still see is the turn signal light stalks which is the same bad easy to break plastic, but hey there's always 2020.

[Richard230]

The first thing I noticed was the relatively low bars. Doesn't look to comfortable for around-town riding to me, however.  My thought is that the bike is designed as a "naked street fighter" and that is what the "F" stands for. It also looks like the rear shock (located in the picture between the "2.2" overlay) is in a new location, perhaps along the right side of the frame, as seems to be the latest style among many new ICE motorcycles.

Also, apparently Zero has done away with rear view mirrors. After all who needs to look at their shoulders? 

The top of the "tank" does appear to have a movable cover. So my guess is that is a cover for a CCS or L2 connection.

I like the red color. 

[NEW2elec]

I missed the rear spring completely, yeah looks like longer travel and more to adjust I guess.
It looks like bar "level" mirrors.  That black slant just above the turn signal.

That looks like the instrument display panel to me.
