More power. More Torque. Max Adventure...

The Zero DSR is an amped-up version of the Zero DS, bringing unprecedented levels of power and torque to the world’s most versatile electric motorcycle. For the dual sport rider demanding more, the Zero DSR delivers 56% more torque and 25% more power. A 660 amp controller is paired with a Z-Force® motor that contains higher temperature magnets to ensure better performance during extended durations at higher speeds. The result is exhilarating acceleration and even greater prowess off-road.

With a 0-60 time of 3.9 seconds and 106 ft-lbs of torque on demand, the Zero DSR may be civilized but is by no means subdued. With custom tuned Showa suspension and Bosch ABS, it is equally at home on pavement and dirt. The Zero DSR is more than ready for maximum adventure…whether it’s in the city or places beyond.


A refined powertrain integrated with an off-road heritage

The Zero DS and Zero DSR share much of the DNA found in the Zero S but also incorporate technology that makes them ideally suited for a wider range of conditions. In the dirt or on the street, the Pirelli dual sport tires maintain a tight grip, and the specially engineered Showa suspension system absorbs the bumps. The result is a dual sport motorcycle that is ready for any surface you throw at it.

Fail. Electric motorcycles will not be competition for real motorcycles until we see highway ranges of 150+ miles and a recharge time of about 5 minutes, or however long it takes to fill a gas tank. The battery technology just isn't here yet.

Also $16-18k? What the hell is up with that? I'm not going to pay that much for anything that doesn't outperform a top-tier supersport.

Expensive yes but over the life of the bike would the low recharge cost make up for it? If your use was commuting it would work.

I guess it's viable if you only use it for commutes/transportation. I can't imagine an enthusiast having this as their only bike, since it's too difficult to tour with, given the logistics of charging. If you're a commuter, fine, but is it actually good for the environment over the operational lifetime of the bike? Consider that that battery manufacturing and disposal aren't exactly environmentally friendly.

If it had a solar powered charger so it kept charging as you go it would be awesome.

Can't agree. While not much use as an long distance tourer or an all day ride, I can see its merits as a commuting bike. Yes pricey up front, but it should average out on the per mile cost. I would actually consider one as a daily commuter.
Always ask why.

It seems to me to be a matter of time before these are faster than gasoline powered engines. The Tesla is flat out faster than almost any car from a dead stop. I think the range is probably well above the daily miles the average rider would put on a bike. Yes touring is still a far off dream for these, but I'm interested to see how they tackle that.

I won't see one under the tree, but I am going to test drive one in the spring.

Merry Christmas to Mike, Andrea and all my fellow riders.
Jock

Ok. Even in the context of commuter bikes, it's still a flat out fail because it costs literally 4x as much as a purpose built commuter bike should. If it's a commuter bike, where are the heated grips? Where's the windscreen? Where are the luggage options?

Besides, who only uses their bike for commuting and nothing else?
