Buy Sell Trade / Re: 2019 FXS 7.2 $7000 (Vancouver, BC area)

One fellow from the US only. It's a steal of a deal too. It worked great for me when I lived in Richmond and commuted to Delta.
I'll probably give it away to a friend if it doesn't sell by winter. Better than it slowly degrading in storage. Here in BC insurance is expensive enough it's very difficult to justify extra vehicles...

Just put a deposit on my new bike so taking offers as well for a quicker sale. Garage is going to be a bit cramped.

« on: April 06, 2020, 10:06:00 PM »
Thought I'd chime in as I've been riding to work before sunrise around -1C to 2C for a couple months now.
2019 Zero FXS 7.2 commute is around 50% city/highway
I do notice a significant drop in power and range at these temps. Normally I can hit 130-140km/h easily on the highway but I'm topping out around 70-90km/h depending on a couple degrees difference. I usually use between 25-30%. Today it read 36% when I left and it ran dry about 1km from work (had to push it the rest). Cells likely not balanced as it dropped from 2% to 0% rather suddenly. I kind of expected the computer to lie to you and keep a little extra in reserve as a bit of idiot proofing but I didn't notice it. I expect the combination of it being a little colder than the weather forecast said and also starting at a low charge did me in.
Even on the cold slower mornings I'm back to almost normal operation hitting around 120km/h in the afternoon when it's only 4-5C.
I think it might be time for me to use some insulating wrap on the battery until it warms up a bit. Thanks daylight savings =(
Anyone got a link to the most popular cold weather battery mods?

« on: September 23, 2019, 12:09:35 AM »Thanks for the advice. I'll PM you for details. Now that I know the model is barely changing, I can buy aftermarket parts.
I'm also 6'4" so I'm hoping the dealer can make some modifications for me. Raised handlebars, lowered foot pegs.. I'll probably get the seat restuffed similar to this.

I'm 6'2" with a 2019 FXS and I think you'll be fine with stock.

I do actually and get a fantastic deal in Point Roberts on large shipments and pallets for work, but he only ships with Estes and they havn't gotten back to me with an answer if they'll ship there before I look for something in Blaine.
Still I need a regular cover for the immediate future and while out and about though! Sizing them for tall narrow bikes like the fxs isn't easy.

Zero Motorcycles Forum | 2013+ / Cover recommendations for 2019 FXS?
« on: April 07, 2019, 02:24:37 AM »
Just bought a 2019 Zero FXS and will be taking delivery in a few days and would like to know which covers fit nicely. I made the mistake of getting a too large cover for my previous bike and while it worked fine it was just always a bit of extra hassle.
I'd like to order a Cycleshell as well but they wont ship to Canada so I'm also open to alternatives. I live in a 2nd floor apartment so my options are limited.
Anyway, happy to be part of the EV Moto community after a good few years of dreaming.
