Like it ! Especially the chopped of fender. Is this set up for racing or street? If street what frOnt lights and indicator have u used?

Set up for mostly street. Its my daily commuter as well as track bike. Headlight is a modified Zero 2012 light with integrated HID highbeam and high intensity LED lowbeam. Turn signals are carbon fiber led signals ( added in a relay on the line to prevent epileptic speed blinking - thanks to Harlan ).
Tail chop has an integrated LED taillight blinkers and brakes.
Also removed stock mirrors and replaced with a single collapsible ( folds in ) bar end mirror on the left hand side. I actually just folded it in for the track day.
If you want to know more ask the experts on customizing these Harlan & Josh https://www.facebook.com/hollywoodelectrics (https://www.facebook.com/hollywoodelectrics) The owner Harlan was actually up in the Race Control Box as the resident expert commentating the TTXGP at Infineon!

Thanks for the plug Cowboy. If anybody is interested in any of these custom upgrades for their Zero, we have parts in stock and different options available.
Our most popular upgrade is the LED fender eliminator kit with integrated turn signals. The HID is a big functional improvement over the stock headlight. The low profile LED turn signals and bar end mirror clean up the look of the bike.

Harlan, I'd definitely be interested in the HID kit. The Zero headlight needs some 'roids. I'd also like to get a rear rack on it somehow. Do y'all have a catalog or anything showing these goodies? I have a 2012 DS.
Cowboy, did you have to do anything to the rear axle to use that stand? I'm completely ignorant of how those work, but the ones I've seen usually hook onto some kind of pegs or liders on the bike.

@CliC nah, its got rubber cubes that fit perfect on the 2011, I imagine they should fit the 2012 well too. Picked the stand up at Cycle Gear on sale for crazy cheap. I was planning on taking the kickstand off till I realized I had to remove the foot peg and then put it back on. Didn't want to chance not getting it back on, as it turns out though it is a simple process though. You really need the kick stand pulled off to get good lean on the track. My kickstand is pretty ground down from figuring that out.
