When the contactor is open (key is switched off) and the low power fuse removed, there schould not be any power on the bike ,the battery is then completely isolated from the rest of the bike. On the 2013 models there where two fuses on the original batteries, but on most bikes the original battery has been replaced by a 2015 one ( with only one fuse)
The MBB and the dc-dc converter are hot wired via this fuse, and it protects the bms in the event of a short in the hot wired parts and cables.
If you still have voltage with contact off and low power fuse removed, you have to find out where it comes from. Make sure the contactor is open (could be welded) Check if the high voltage pins on the dc-dc also receive 110v. You could unplug the battery (very hard to reach, especially on a 2013 )
I wouln d install a new MBB before you know where this voltage comes from and this is corrected.
Good luck

I live in Belgium and ride my 2017 SR almost every day, even iwhen it snows. I made a rear fender to keep the mud off my back, and I kwow people that are happy with the zero mudguard, so that is not realy an issue. About loosing the rear, since I know no ICE bike that is as smooth on the throttle as a zero, that shouldn t be a problem either, if you have any experience on a motorcycle. If you select eco on rainy rides, there isn t much torque left.

I think you have to take out your motor. The sprocket is fixed with loctite, so you better heat it up to melt the loctite. Do not use a hammer, because you might ruin the adjusment of the position sensor on the other end of the shaft. I think there is info about this in the unofficial maintenance manual

I used a one wheel trailer when I went on vacation with my guzzi. I had my girlfriend on the back and a trailer was much better than loading everything on the bike. Only when accelerating and braking you felt the weight. Even on the highway in germany at 160 km/h everything was stable as if there was no trailer at all. Mine was a "freebird",made in the netherlands. I believe they still make them. It had a small wheel with highspeed tire on it. Maybe you can look it up to give you an idea how to make one, or buy one like it (I think they are expensive though.

My "big tank" is made of glassfiber. It is a slightly modified part of the tank I made for my first zero full fairing in 2016. Back then I had a 2013S with a " handbagg" in the tank. So I made a new tank with 17L capacity and a hard cover (zero didn t have that yet). Now I can put them in original tanks.

I had the same idea long ago.

You have to do the opposite of moto training:  Hold the rear brake hard.  Smash it, hard and fast.  The faster the better.  Because you want it to lock.

If it doesn't lock, the brakes will heat up and fail.  If they lock, then they lose heat and you win.

Doesn't matter the motor type.

How can you lock your brake while riding on a bike with ABS ?

On a s or sr the passenger footpeg is the same as the riders footpeg
