I had the fork leak last year.  Final fix was Zero sent out new forks.

Zero Motorcycles Forum | 2013+ / Re: Gas trike becoming 2013 Zero electric!
« on: February 16, 2013, 10:19:02 PM »
I was getting ready to sell my 2012 S-9 because I can no longer ride on two wheels.
I would like to do this trike conversion also. What parts are you getting from Zero?
Is the front end still available as a kit?

I was the one that moved the charge port up to the top of the battery.  I purchased the
relocation kit from Harlan. Works great.

Yes, I am there also. Shot the video in our Store "Small Planet E-Vehicles".

I am still recovering from the crash, but it is obvious that I will no longer be able to drive a two wheel vehicle
due to my injuries. I emailed Danson a few days ago but no response. I have decided to sell my S-9 for $6,000.
Only 2300 miles on it.

Zero Motorcycles Forum | 2012 and older / Training Wheels for my S-9
« on: January 27, 2013, 04:36:31 AM »
I bought  2009 Honda Goldwing new and installed a Tow-Pac Insta-Trike kit to hold it up.
Last March I had it converted it to a real trike. Last Sunday I totaled it and now will have
to give up my Zero unless I can find a kit to add two more wheels to it.

Tow-Pac Insta-Trike makes kits for 49.9 CC Honda metros all the way up to the biggest bikes.
They have not heard of the Zero. What the world needs is a good 3 wheel electric bike. Or
in the case of Insta-Trike, four wheels.

Has anyone considered this? Looking for ideas so I can keep riding my S-9.

There are several good cable locks out there. This one is interesting because it retracts.

Also found this Kuryakyn lock in two handlebar sizes. The big one is 1 1/4" - 1/1/2".

I would love to have the range of a 11.4kw 2013 S. My 9kw 2012 S9 is
just a little short on a route I would like to take to go up to Estes Park.
Currently I take Hwy 36 up over 8,500 ft, then down the hill to Estes
@ 7,500 ft. 63 miles round trip without a charge stop. The route I would
like to take is Hwy 7 up over 9,000 ft and down to Estes. Then down Hwy
36 to home. Approx 80 miles for the loop. (All in economy mode driving
conservatively of course).

I purchased the 12V adapter from Zero. I didn't like the bracket that mounts the adapter on the right turn signal light.
I mounted it right on the black panel in front of me. I have a 12V adapter from Gerbings so I can plug in my controller
for my electric liner and gloves. The connector is visable from the right side under the false tank. 1st photo shows the connector with the rubber boot. 2nd photo shows the connector. 3rd photo shows where I mounted the adapter.

Just got my signs from DIY Lettering referred by jpaulus.  The ones on the sides are
reflective, the one on the windscreen is not. There are three types of material. The
3rd is the reflective. The 2nd is next best without reflective which is what I used for
the windscreen.

I ordered the kits from Harlan for myself and Colopaul.  I have mine installed. Instead of mounting to the fuse plate,
I purchased a new longer M5 screw from ACE to replace the top/right screw on the battery box. Now the charge port
is very accessable. I don't even have to bend over or reach around anywhere.

« on: September 22, 2012, 09:23:20 PM »
I had the Glitch. Dealer said he would do the reprogram Sept 11th. When I arrived and processed the bike S-ZF9, they found the
other two recalls were to be done. Brake light and BMS board waterproofing. I was not notified about these but the dealer checked
on it when they had my bike in. Good deal. Just did a 91.6 mile ride yesterday. Ran out of bars and was still going. No Glitches.

I bought the summer screen from Zero @ the dealer. Only $99.99 plus tax. Works great.

I have a 2012 S9. I have gone from Longmont, CO to Estes Park, CO. 5,000 ft over 8,500 ft
and down to 7,500. Back up the hill 2 miles @ 55 mph from 7,500 ft to 8,500 ft then down
the hill to go back home. Last 10 miles at 60 mph. Had 3 bars left after 67 miles.
Cost 0.43 cents for the trip.
