Kocho - you might be right. I thought the seat had been raised separately but can't find any documentation.

It does have more leg room than my buddies stock SR though so some alteration has been made in addition to what is in the listing to create the space.

Hi Doug,

I should have the information about the brand of shock and mods but I don't. The original owner had Hollywood Electrics make the changes before I bought the bike.

I don't have any of the original parts but at 5'11 you might enjoy the added room.

Morning Kocho,

The biggest improvement to a bigger rider is the extra clearance for your legs.

When riding a stock SR, at 6'4 your legs will be jammed into the side of the bike to fit. With the seat raised by around 2 inches, it significantly increases the space and improves the seated angle for your legs.

The forks had to be increased in length to accommodate the seat height increase or, as you can imagine, the angle of the rider would be shifted forward.

Thanks for the question.

Hi there,

I have truly enjoyed every minute that I have spend on my Zero. As most of you here know it is a feeling like no other! I recently quit my job, however, and need to establish some liquidity. If you've ever ridden a Zero SR and are taller than about 5'10 then you know it’s a tight fit for taller guys. This isn't a problem with this bike as it has been modified by Hollywood Electrics (Harlan’s shop - the #1 Zero dealer in the world) to accommodate a taller rider.

The changes were done the right, expensive way by installing the following:

- New, longer, Zero Dual Sport forks
- New Rear mono-shock
- New, taller kickstand.

These changes brings the seat height to from 31.8 to approximately 33.5 inches with correct jounce and calibrated rebound remaining. I am 6'4 and fit on the bike comfortably. I would estimate that it would be a great fit for a rider between 5'9 to 6'6.

These alterations cost $2,500 but were worth their weight in gold for a taller rider. I jumped on my buddies 2015 SR who lives in Vegas and it really is much smaller feeling and forced me into an uncomfortable riding position.

I just put brand new Bridgestone Battle-ax T30 tires on the bike which now have 250 miles on them. I also have the $600 dollar quick charger that I’ll include.

There are no scratches or dings on the bike and it truly looks right off the showroom floor.

It has the same HP, torque, acceleration and speed specs as the new 2016’s. Feel free to take a look at the Zero Product Page here: http://www.zeromotorcycles.com/zero-s/2014/specs.php?model=sr

The bike cost $22,000 out the door with the modifications and quick charger. I am asking $12,900 and live in San Luis Obispo, CA.

Feel free to shoot me over any questions. Thanks!
