Jon, is that the Wilber’s 640? I’m thinking about the replacement and couldn’t find much of a written review. Apart from the taller ride height, what else do you think about it? Is the rebound adjustments enough?

Hi all,

As an update to the custom mode saving changes, it now works and has been for a few months now.

I just had to update the bike firmware, update the app and reset the Bluetooth connection but the step that fixed the issue was updating the firmware.

I have a 2014 S and can post software versions if it helps anyone.

Now just to have the SoC calculation fixed.

Hey all, any news about a software update to correct this issue?

Nigezero, my app also says 253,000km to empty as well on a 2014 Zero S (no power tank). This is the last small issue to fix before my Zero is perfect!

If anyone reads this from Zero, please update the app/firmware.

Richard, I don’t know who’s luckier, you or your daughter but I do know that the riding these things become quite an addiction!

Richard, that description is exactly what prompted me to replace the onboard charger. It started being an overnight charge left the SoC in the morning at 98% and over a few weeks, the SoC reduced to 95%, 92% and then finally 90%. If you unplugged and plugged back in, it would often get to 100% or if you left it for a day or so, the second charge would start to bring it to 100% but eventually it was taking 3 plug ins to get to 100% or more than 3-4 days to initiate all the charges to get to 100%. I contacted Zero and even though out of warranty, they were kind enough to replace the charger at no cost. Zero support have been fantastic and even though my motor has been replaced twice and onboard charger once, their communication is always precise and in a reasonable time frame. I think you should contact them before it develops further.

I have also installed all the parts on my bike and attached photos below.

In terms of price, it is slightly cheaper to buy from AF1 racing but their service is worth more than the savings from buying locally (from this one purchasing experience anyway).

The total list of parts installed since the bike has been off the road:

- New motor under warranty as the previous one showed signs of internal bearing failure.
- New onboard 1.3kW charger as the last was not charging the battery to 100% (usually 91% SoC)
- Tail tidy
- Givi factory top box (also noticed that the rack has the usual seat bolt mounts, under seat bolts AND a metal frame with rubber boot that sits on the tail plastic! I can send photos if anyone is curious)
- a double fast charger (6.8 kW) from EVtricity which I havn't used as my go to electrician is soaking up the sun in the northern state of Queensland. Lucky bugger
Also will not mount the charger to the bike as this will void the warranty so it will stay at home except when I'm touring in summer and it will live in the top box.

Last thing is a good cleaning and I'll have to plan the next upgrades!

Before tail tidy and top box:

After tail tidy and top box rack:

After clipping in top box:


And finally getting back to the reason for my post:

I have installed the belt! And have a spare for the next 40,000km (85,000km on the odometer or odomile for the americans

I may have a similar issue. 2014 S 11.4 Initially, power loss occured at 10% and then after a few months, gradually power loss started to occur at 13%, 15% and 20%. I'm about to start diagnosing it with the Zero techs. They are actually very helpful but may be overworked as I'm sure the company is growing. This all has occured before the recent firmware update though. The only thing I lost with the firmware update was the ability to change custom ride settings as experienced by many with a 2014 S and the recent firmware. Hope your friend gets it sorted quickly.

I also recently hit this roadblock.

Just had my firmware/software updated to the latest versions (will post version # once I can) and can change the custom settings but bike will not save them. I have app version 1.3.0 (4) and because I'm using an iPhone, can not install an earlier version of the Zero app.

Hope this gets fixed in an update soon.
