2021 DSR saddle bag pricing

Brother I don't know what kinda crack the good people at Zero are smoking but the full set of boxes plus racks for a DSR is 3000 fucking dollars. For that much I feel like I could hire someone privately to design and plastic mold them.

Does anyone have a good soft material saddle bag they like that I can throw on the back of a DSR and potentially remove overnight while on a longer road trip? the standard soft zero ones seem really small.

any help would be much appreciated!!

Low quality luggage from SW-Motech and poor customer service from Zero

On 10/14/25 I purchased a set of SW-Motech Ion boxes and hardware--the ones shown on the Zero website that is custom made for the Zero DSR. I’ve put over 6500 miles on these boxes and all has been fine until 5/12/26 when the top box snapped off of its mounts while I was on a bumpy dirt road.

I was under the impression that this gear was suitable for adventure bike use. I don't take my bike "off-road" but I have ridden on dirt roads, sometimes very bumpy ones. There's a forest service road right by my cabin that is like a washboard. I don't ride it hard, but it jostles as you go over it. Anyway, that's where the box fell off. And for the record, the box wasn’t heavily loaded—all I had in it was a lunch and a jacket.

I figured with a company like SW-Motech it'd be a cinch to get warranty support. I was wrong. They told me that "Unfortunately, this luggage rack is an OEM Zero product. While we did manufacture this part, we are not able to offer customers warranty coverage for it. You will need to go directly through Zero for this."

So no help from them, even though their name is all over the gear.

And Zero? They haven't even responded to my emails to ownersupport@zeromotorcycles.com. Their phone service no longer welcomes owner support requests, so I can't even get anyone to talk to me.

Honestly, at this point, I'd be perfectly happy just buying the broken brackets if I could find someone who'd sell them to me for a reasonable price. But I won't pay $510 for a whole new rack assembly. I just need two brackets.

It looks like I may have to weld them myself for a repair. In the meantime, my top box is sitting uselessly on my bench in my garage.

I could not recommend anyone to buy SW-Motech gear and I'm afraid to say that my enthusiasm for Zero has just dropped by a bunch.

Still, I love the bike. It's a great motorcycle, even if the company has blown me off.

Luggage rack mounts 22 zero sr/f

I would like to get side and tail luggage mounts. I’m annoyed zero doesn’t sell direct to consumer, and AF1 is no longer a dealer. Would hate to have to go the custom route. I’m open to used if anyone has them.

Battery Log Reading assistance

I went to look at a 16 SR yesterday, and it looks like its in great shape, but I don't think i'm understanding how to read the battery logs. Bike has about 8500 on the odometer.

Edit: I uploaded the full log here: https://github.com/tzts44znt6-art/16-zero-SR-log/tree/main

Zero SR battery question

Hi all, I have a 2022 Zero SR 14.4+ which has had the upgrades unlocked, and I have a question about the battery

I read that the capacity with the fully unlocked battery is 17.3KWh, similar to the SR/f - i assume achieved through the 10% extended range and 10% extra battery capacity unlocks, adding 20% to the previously ‘locked’ 14.4KWh.

My question is, will charging the bike to 110% through the extended battery charging feature give me a similar SoC than charging an SR/f to 100%? The reason why I ask is that the SR/f has the 17.3KWh as standard but also has the unlockable 10% extended range feature. I assume the batteries are the same in both models, just software locked on the SR. This is a little confusing, and if I am wrong about any of the above please correct me as I am trying to understand how this all works.

Thanks

Future FXS purchase

I'm looking at purchasing a 2019-2021 because I specifically like the supermotard look of these bikes but I know they've been discontinued. Does anyone have any experience with this exact model?

Motorcycle in the bed

Not a lot of information out there about putting a ramp on the MultiPro tailgate other than reading somewhere not to put it on the insert. There is also a YT video putting a 550# adventure bike in the back of a gas truck with the same tailgate.

First time for me so I walked it up from the side since the MultiPro will support 350#. You definitely can’t be trepidatious with 7.5 ft ramps; commit to it or don’t. Longer ramps or a hill/curb/loading platform would make it easier.

Zero FX

I have a 2016 zero FX and only one good battery. Does anyone know if these are sold separately. Is getting just one battery worth it or do i need to replace both. Range is limited Right now to commuting around town. Are there any aftermarket options that will increase range?

Bike nearly killed me

My bike was in sport mode and the ground was wet. I was exiting a roundabout and got on the throttle.

The bikes rear end snaked and how i was not thrown off i cant understand.

My left and right ankles were whacked by the footpegs, my right wrist hurt by being thrown forward up wayyyy off the seat, also got whiplash in my left shoulder.

Basically im in agony in 4 parts of my body and shaken up.

Been riding for 20 years and had the zero since 2024. Worst and scary moment of my biking life.

Has anyone else had scary tankslapping moments in the wet?

I forget my 2022 zero does not have TC and the torque in sport mode is incredible.

DSR 15.6+ 2024 What do the battery capacity numbers mean?

I'm currently in the midst of purchasing a Zero DSR 2024 and it's unclear for me what the battery capacity numbers actually mean. The salesperson said to me, the bike has already an "upgraded" battery with 15.6kwh. However, in the offer he suggests a further 10% upgrade. Which capacity will I get if I purchase the bike without upgrade? The listed 13.6kwh or a battery with 15.6 kwh? Sorry, I'm confused.

Oh, and what does the '+' stand for in DSR 15.6+?

Just got my hands on a power tank

Hoping i could use it with my fx, but it doesnt work, with either of the batteries or a loopback plug. I didn't think it would need any programming?

edit: 2015 modular FX, power tank is a take off from an 2024 SR

Electrical Spray

2022 Zero Srs

What is the best electrical spray. Might as well coat everything while I have everything off.

Also, after 13 days it’s still showing code 43 (isolation) and code 31 (battery module ineligible) but the motor finally kicked back on and it will actually move now???

2024 Zero SR: Drive belt snapped at 4,000 km – Is pulley replacement normal? Warranty experiences?

I’m looking for some advice regarding my 2024 Zero SR. I’ve only put about 4,000 km (approx. 2,500 miles) on it, but the drive belt snapped unexpectedly while I was riding last week.

The bike is currently at the workshop, and they told me they need to replace both belt pulleys along with the new belt.

I have two main questions for the community:

  1. Is this normal? Should a belt—and especially the pulleys—really be failing or needing replacement after only 4,000 km? I mostly do street riding and haven't encountered any major debris.

  2. Warranty Experiences: Has anyone dealt with Zero’s warranty regarding the drivetrain? Since the belt is technically a "wear item," I’m worried they might fight it, but 4,000 km feels like a defect or an alignment issue rather than standard wear and tear.

Has anyone else had a similar experience with the 2024 models? I’d appreciate any insights before I move forward with the repair.

Thanks in advance!

'23 Zero S for $5300 with 1100mi on it. Should I buy?

I love to ride motorcycles but I've never though to shop for an electric bike even though I kind of want one because I assumed they were all too expensive. I ran across this one and thought that it's not a bad deal but I don't really know. After a bit of research, I find that it only has a range of maybe 80mi and charge time of 5 hours, is that correct? Well, that's going to make me think if I really need it now. Does that seem like a good deal?

Also what about spare parts? Batteries? Is there an actual aftermarket ecosystem to buy spares?

Thanks for the info everyone.

Replaced 12v but bike is still not charging.

After being able to get my bike out of storage it didn't want to charge or turn on. Some research later It seemed likely it was the 12v battery having issues.

I went ahead and ordered a new 12v and installed it.

The bike turns on, but the SOC is at 0% and doesn't take to the charger.

When I plug the charger in, the dash flashes on like its supposed to, but then it turns off and doesn't charge.

Thought i'd ask here first about a fix before I call the dealer tomorrow to ask about it.

Edit: The bike is a 2021 SR/S

Zero dsr 2018 charge tank question

Just bought a used 2018 dsr with a charge tank, and in my area we have usually two options for type-2 charging.

1-phase 230v 32A and 3-phase 400v 32A.

Can I use the 3-phase stations or do I have to stick to the 1-phase ones?

2022 srs

I have an error code 43 isolation fault and a 31 battery module inelignoble. This happened after a heavy rain over 10 days ago. I’ve dried it with a blow dryer, I’ve followed instructions, I’ve reset…..codes will not go away……I was excited about this bike! I’ve only had it for 2 months! Plus, it is my only transportation currently. Just got a great job and I’ve had to uber for over a week now…..that is expensive. Can someone please help! The nearest dealer is over 5 hours away!
