Updated my '22 SR/S Standard.

The dash shows greyed out "Parking Mode" and "Ext. Range Charging" options. Were those there before?

Is there any chance this update range bumped the Standard? Would make sense to just roll that out in an update versus include it in the Cypher store if there's no charge. I'd be happy to help figure this out if I knew how to do that. Having had the bike for just a few weeks, I don't have a clue.

The 10% extra range on the Premium cost's $1295, so if you take that away from the $3885 that it would cost to upgrade a Standard model you get a $2590 difference, or $490 extra for a Standard upgraded to Premium spec.

Got it. Thanks.

For fun, I attached a mock up of what the new pricing might look like for the SR/S. It assumes:

- Premium owners will get range, charging, parking for free

- Standard owners will pay to close the gaps between Standard and Premium. The after-market surcharge will remain identical to what it was (a total of $490 across the options). This preserves the benefit Premium owners got by purchasing the higher-end trim at time of sale and it also maintains the incentive for dealers who purchased (and may still have in their inventory) Premium trims

- 10% Extended Range goes away as a standalone concept. It's included in Premium and comes with the 20% Extended Range option on Standard. It is reduced to $900 which is what the original pricing imputed  (20% Extended Range [Standard] - 10% Extended Range [Premium])

- Navigation is a $195 add on for both trims

This could be close to what they do. Of course they still have to figure out what to do going forward because it's not clear the market ever wants to deal with this stuff. You could imagine them having to go back to a world in which trim differences are based on hardware differences which is what they clearly wanted to avoid.

I'm a 2022 SR/S owner who still only partially understands the trim differences.

Prior to whatever Cypher store changes are coming, would purchasing the following options through the store have made my Standard functionally equivalent to a Premium?

100% Faster Charging : $1495
20% Extended Range : $2195
Heated Grips : $195

I'm confused on whether or not the Premium comes with the added range.

If those three packages are the difference between Standard and Premium, then it seems reasonable for Zero to offer them either as a bundle for $2,100 (the difference between Standard and Premium at time of purchase) or to at least price them such that they total to that amount. Without this change, the total to $3885 which is, frankly, outrageous.

I don't think it would be fair to Premium purchasers to simply turn them on for those of us that paid less for our bikes.

It'll be fun to see how this plays out - it's frankly hard to imagine them finding a path through this that doesn't piss off some group of folks.

The 2020 SR/S has up to three charging modules. A standard edition has a single 3kW AC unit physically tucked on top of the battery. The Premium edition has a second 3kW unit nestled next to it. The Rapid Charger is a 6kW unit that stacks on top and more or less fills up the 'tank pocket'.

Thanks for explaining this, @Mvetter!

I'm in the US and have a new 2022 SR/S (non Premium).  Do you know whether or not my bike would have come with that second 3kW unit you describe as being nestled next to the battery? The Cypher Store Builder suggests that I'll be able to add 100% Faster Charge to my bike for $1,495 and I'm trying to understand if, in practice, that means that they included that second charger and $1,495 is the cost for unlocking it.

I didn't fully understand this when I bought the bike but as it stands, the bundled L1 charger gets me 1.4kWh. L2 (either at home on my 50A L2 charger or at a ChargePoint station) gets me 3kWh. If that additional charger really is bundled on the bike, am I correct in assuming that if I pay the $1,500, it will have no impact on L1 but would let me get ~6kWh off a L2?

What's the 10% thing do? That's seems even sillier.

Man...the Cypher Store idea didn't bother me all that much when I was considering my purchase but now that I'm looking at a total of $4,295US to unlock everything, I'm pretty turned off by the whole thing.

Hi, folks.

First post. Long-time rider considering a 2023 FXE as a first electric. Purpose would be as a commuter (about 13 miles each way, mostly freeway) which I'd charge nightly.

My dealer is placing an order and thinks the bike will be available by mid August. Is there any info yet on when these things will actually hit dealers?

I'm also curious about a couple of accessories.

The top box - is that a 34 liter Givi? Would appreciate anyone's experience with what helmets fit in that thing. For reference, my current lids are an RF1400 and a Neotec 2. I'd be happy if just the helmet fit.

Parking Brake Accessory Kit - huh? What do you do without that? Does the bike just roll freely? I park on hills. Do you need to buy and use this if you don't want your bike to roll off?

The commuter screen - Anyone have a pic of an FXE with one of these mounted? I'm interested in seeing it mounted including the connection points if anyone's got that handy.

The SAE wire - can't figure out if it's ignition switched or always on.

Thanks, everyone!
