With some aero improvements you could probably get about 130 miles per charge with the big battery and the power tank with each additional power tank adding about 23 miles range highway.  So you might have to add 3 more to get the 200 mile range.  The aero improvements could still maintain the look of the bike versus the Vetter fairing.  With some serious cfd time you could probably get it down to the big battery plus power tank plus 2  more modules.  With no frame or suspension mods the carrying capacity with even 2 new modules would be down too about 240 pounds.  All of this means it would have to be designed from the ground up as a long range toured.

I would love 200 mile range just don't see it in the cards right now.  Price tag alone would be about 25k similar to a car.

There are a lot of factors to voltage at your house.  Proximity to substation, power usage at your house versus neighbors, time of day, load on the grid,  and what the power company is currently doing.  The physical location on the house to the end of the power line.  That is why most electronics can support a large range of voltages and still work +/-5 volts is not too much as long as it is gradual changes.  I have notice sometimes my LED lights dim or flicker when the AC comes on since they are very dependant on voltage.

I think one of the things zero is doing is staying away from cooling of any type except for air cooling.  Including cooling means you have to keep those components up and i think they are taking the zero maintinance route.  One idea i have not seen is a rotor that has a pass thru in the center similar idea to a hubless wheel.  This would allow for aircooling of the rotor as well as the stator.  I have never seen a motor with this design, but it would be interesting from an engineering prospective.

The Soc is also based on the voltage of the battery.  So turning off the bike for a short period lets the battery re-gain some voltage.  It is just a function of how batteries work being chemistry driven things.  It is possible to make a SOC meter that that records the power in and power out but it is difficult and requires equipment and computing power and it is still not 100% accurate. 

never raced with bikes but i have with cars and i performed some test with traction control and abs on and off on the car on the  same day.  We had a switch we could turn them on and off at will.  Don't remember the exact numbers but on dry pavement the abs stopped in something like 160 feet and the best non racer could do was like 170 feet with the abs off, but put a good racer in the car and they could only beat the abs by maximum 10 feet.  Considering that that person was a racer for many years and was ready for the stop is the only reason they beat the abs, under normal conditions on the road no one would be able to beat abs don't care how good you are.  Traction control was the same thing, a average person could handle a event with traction control if they reacted quickly enough, but with the traction control off only the a racer that was expecting it was able to re-gain control and that was not 100%. 

Never had a bike with traction control, i just tend to ride like a grandpa when i ride in the rain or light snow. Also go skiing around the corners when there is a chance for ice.

If they added the traction control to the bikes they might have to add some type of hydraulic acumulator on the bike so the system could control the breaks without the rider applying pressure.  Beside that i don't think there would be anything else to add to the bike besides a couple thousand lines of code to the computer.

Sorry forgot to add I live near seattle wa.

I have a off board delta quick charger but used thought the onboard chargers had to powered up as well while using the delta quick.
