Zero Motorcycles Forum | 2013+ / Zero next gen app not available in appstore?
« on: September 29, 2025, 02:28:37 PM »
Since a few days, the Zero Next Gen App doesn't show up in the iOS App Store anymore. I get the message 'This app is not available anymore in your region'. Although the reliability and relevance of this app is questionable, you need it for OTA updates. Any thoughts here?

Zero Motorcycles Forum | 2013+ / Re: Some praise to Zero here for warranty work

As far as I know, everyone gets the 15,6 but software restricted to 14,4. My new SR/S battery doesn't have any plate at all. You won't be able to unlock to the full 15,6 due to registration issues (the bike originally has been homologated with the 14,4 battery so upgrading means new homologation. At least here in Europe).

Zero Motorcycles Forum | 2013+ / Re: Questions about balancing the battery.

Hello.

I understood that the battery cells will be balanced when you charge until 100%. Will this be at the “normal” 100% or do you have to select the extended (110%) charge?
And, if the bms is balancing, does it say so on the screen, or do you have to guess what it’s doing?
By the way, how much time does an average balance take, more or less?

As far as I know, the battery cells will be balanced to the charge target you've set. By default 100%, but if you set the target to 60% via e.g. the app, the bike will balance the pack as soon as it has reached 60% SoC.

On the Gen3 bikes, you will notice this on the dash that the bike continues to charge (and consumes energy) although it has reached the set SoC target and remaining charging times is 0m. Typically (in my case) takes between 5 - 10 minutes.

Zero Motorcycles Forum | 2013+ / Re: Touring Windscreen for Zero Sr/S
« on: January 22, 2025, 03:03:13 PM »
I was having the same question for my SR/S. I ended up with an spoiler on the original screen. The same advantages as the touring screen, but it looks way better (see below) and a fraction of the price compared to the Zero touring screen..

Wet conditions? I had exactly the same two weeks ago. My SR/S was outside in a short shower in the morning, got the message on my way back in the evening in dry conditions. Turning off and on, erased the error and hasn't showed up since.

Zero Motorcycles Forum | 2013+ / Re: Firmware update Gen3 Bike SR/F from 28 to 37
« on: September 24, 2024, 02:42:07 PM »
I went to the dealer last week to get v37/15, and that was the newest. So seems that a couple of days later this new release has been pushed. Bummer, as my dealer is a 2 hour drive away.. may try it OTA this time, but only if this release has major improvements.

I received a FW update over the air yesterday. I'm at V38 and BMS V16 now.

The update was presented right after a battery pack change (under warranty) of my SR/F 2020.
Sure it is v38 and v16? The latest releases notes from Zero on the website shows that v37 and v15 are the most recent firmware versions. Or a newer version has been pushed and not yet published in a release note..

Zero Motorcycles Forum | 2013+ / Updates Cypher store?
« on: August 30, 2024, 06:34:24 PM »
Hi,

I was browsing in the Cypher store, when I suddenly noticed that currently Cypher updates are not available. It says: '2024 Cypher Upgrades coming soon - This includes feature upgrades for all qualifying motorcycles. Thanks for your patience'.

Attached a screenshot. Just an error or something else..? Does anybody know what we can expect?

Zero Motorcycles Forum | 2013+ / Re: Charging from a Commando socket (CCE 16amp CEE socket)

Hi.


I tried charging my bike on an industrial Commando socket for the first time. It was slower than usual. The app showed that the charging was stopping and starting every second or so.


Does anyone know what is happening. Will it be bad for my bike?

Thanks,

Andrew

These things don't have charging protocols, which normal charging stations and the bike itselve have and need to communicate and manage the charging process. I won't use this.

Zero Motorcycles Forum | 2013+ / Re: Spare Belt?
« on: June 06, 2024, 01:22:07 PM »
I always carry a spare belt under the passenger seat on my SR/S. The belt is a used one that I got for free from my dealer. In the small compartment under the seat I can also store the right tools (Torx t-bars) to do a quick replacement on the side of the road, as my bike has a centre stand.

Zero Motorcycles Forum | 2013+ / Re: MY20 SR/S tank compartment lock failure
« on: February 21, 2024, 06:35:42 PM »
it was my charging cable that puffed out and pushed the lid upwards, causing pressure on the lock but also a small gap in which the reminder cable of the disc lock slided in between.

Note to self: don't use the tank compartment like the trunk of a car.

I managed to fix this, by lifting the tank plastic gently after removing the side plastics. Seems that something in the tank compartment blocked the lock hook.. It's more or less working again, but I won't be suprised when this happens more often.

SwampNut, LeverCommaJohn, this is very helpful, tanks! Will give it a try next week, when I have a week off. Cheers!

As SwampNut suggested, removing the fairings isn't that terrible. This is likely the safest option for you to prevent causing more damage. Once you have the tank fairing off, it will be a quick and easy matter to reattach the cable. There are some videos on YouTube which explain the disassembly process, but in a nutshell, here is the process:

1. Remove the mirrors
2. Remove the front cowl
3. Remove the outer side fairings, being sure not to forget the two screws on the bottom of the chassis, where the two fairings overlap
4. Remove the two push pins connecting the tank fairing to the inner side fairings.
5. Remove the inner side fairings.
6. Finally, remove the tank fairing. It's only held on with 4 easy to reach screws, but it can be a bit fiddly to remove, as you have to rotate it to clear the handlebars, etc.

Thanks! Almost the same procedure as explained in the service manual.

I tried to find some video’s on YT but couldn’t find anything, do you have some suggestions / links?

Zero Motorcycles Forum | 2013+ / MY20 SR/S tank compartment lock failure
« on: February 13, 2024, 05:45:09 PM »
Hi all, yesterday the lock of the tank compartment from my SR/S failed. I forced the black plastic part of the side panel (where the lock is located) a bit aside and saw that the cable came loose from the lock itself. Is there any (quick) way to force the lock open (as my charging cable is inside..) or do I have to remove all plastics (as advised by the dealer and as explained in the service manual) to reach the lock itself?
