Title: New Zero user
Post by: R1KSU on September 25, 2020, 01:22:29 PM
Hi, I'm Rick, from the UK, just traded in my GSXR1000 K7 for a Zero FXS 2019 with the Zero sticker kit on.
I'm looking to find all the info I can.
A little disappointed in the range as I bought it as a commuter and my first morning I used it for my 20 mile commute and only had 30% battery left, on the way home I avoided the motorway and slowed down a bit and got home with 65% 😂

You'll have to stop riding it like a Gixxer then :P No more A-roads for you!

Cas :)

An FXS only has a 40 mile range at 70mph in optimal weather and load.

Glad you're uhh, having fun with it!

Also, it may take a few rides before the SOC computer gets up to speed and becomes a little more accurate. At least that was the case with my 2018 S.

If you cut off your head you might be a little more aerodynamic.   ;)

I did reset it and it showed 80 miles :(
