Zero Motorcycles Forum | 2013+ / Re: Two questions regarding my 2020 FX
« on: December 13, 2019, 10:46:56 PM »
So I am still trying to find the correct spring rate spec for the rear shock on the 2020 FX. They equipped the bike with a 41mm Showa shock. I found on unofficial Zero someone posted the rear rate for the 15-16 but I don't know if this applies to the 19+ models...I contacted Zero asking if they may know the rate for the FX and their reply was "What model are you looking for?"  ???

soooo...

If any one has any info that'd be great!

You don't need to disassemble the firmware to understand how speed is computed.

MBB command "set" has one variable worth changing for the speed and odometer: rwhcirc (rear wheel circumference in mm)

Your rear wheel size is unlikely to differ, since the stock rear wheel is already a 17" diameter rim.

spfront and sprear are the front and rear sprocket tooth counts, for when you change the gear ratio.

The front wheel size matters a bit for the ABS sensor.

Sweet, thanks for the link to the Command settings, that looks like something I can handle :)

I have an FX, so the rear currently is an 18" rim but as others have mentioned should only be a marginal change.

Hey all, thanks for the info.

Both wheels will be changing to a 17" size, not just the front as that would be a bit odd... I have already the FXS side stand on order.

Part number for reference if anyone else needs it :26-08099

I am not too concerned with the speedo calibration. As someone mentioned it is around a 3% change which is pretty marginal. Either way, I am stoked for the setup and look forward to seeing it all come together!

I should be ordering that new Hypercoil rear spring soon. I need to pull the rear shock and double check some measurements too. Once that is done I'll report back with feedback if anyone is interested!

Cheers

Hi all, I am having super moto wheels made for my FX. With this obviously will be new tire sizes that are bigger/heavier than what is stock on this bike.

Is there a way to re-calibrate or do something to the computer to input the new tire sizes? Does this even matter? I know people swapping FX and FXS parts regularly and I see no mention of this.



My second question is I am wanting to beef up the rear shock a bit. I have worked with Hyperco in the past with great results from their springs you can buy independently. I saw on another forum that the 2015-16 FX had a rear spring rate of 73-82NM. I was thinking of going with a 700 in.lb (79NM) rear spring from Hyperco.

Has anyone swapped out there rear shock spring? I do quite a bit of two up and loaded riding so would like a bit more stiffness.

Any info would be great!

I still have quite a few parts for sale off my FX as well if anyone is interested!

Cheers  ;)
