The Zero DSR is an electric beast. It's 14.4 KwH battery and 775 amp controller put out a whopping 116 ft lbs of torque and 70 horsepower. The DSR suspended by adjustable Showa suspension and Bosch ABS brakes. It is a legit full-size motorcycle weighing in a 419 pounds. Zero claims a range of 122 when riding the motorcycle in mixed highway/city conditions. The Zero DSR can be configured with either a Charge Tank or Power Tank. The Charge Tank allows the DSR to benefit from rapid charging at a level 2 charge station, allowing it to charge in under 2 hours. The Power Tank adds more range, allowing for an extra claimed 30 miles of range. Check out bit.ly/ZeroMotorcycle

I like ABS for Forest Service roads like what you’re riding where you can go at a pretty good clip and you may find yourself facing a jeep or other vehicle coming around a blind mountain corner. I’ve tried both and unless your locking up the rear wheel to slide corners the ABS is definitely beneficial on a 300 lbs plus bike. On my light dirt bikes, under 300 lbs I don’t need ABS.

Your 450 is way more of a precision off-road machine and will hands down outperform the DSR when the going gets rough. On the flip side, as a mixed use bike, you're absolutely right the DSR a very fun motorcycle to ride and provides a pretty unique experience. Hope you get to try one out soon 👍

Thanks for making this video. The offroad part wasn't really offroad at all but more of a washed out unsealed road.

Thanks Tucker. I was not aware of the off road app so I download it. Cool that it lists some off road areas I didn't know about near me!!! I've been more of a street rider and although I've ridden some off road with my DSR I was anxious to hear your view of how you feel it handles. Thanks for your views. The roads you tested are EXACTLY the types of roads I ride. I'm using a more aggressive off road tire than the Pirelli's and they handle well on tarmac too. I'll be doing some longer rides next week and as you've stated I preferred to buy mine with the Charge Tank. Enough time to stop, take a piss grab some chow and hit the road. Because I've owned my Sur Ron for over 3 years, having the DSR gives me the best of both worlds for two wheel EVs. A light single track bike and a real motorcycle that's an EV. Just right for me. Looking forward to more of your videos on the Zero.

I went from driving various petrol cars to driving a Tesla and it was "neat" at first but eventually became my "normal". Until I went back to a petrol car (rental) and I was reminded of the profound difference in driver experience. Some time has passed since you shot this - have you gotten back on your petrol bikes? What was it like returning to them after riding a Zero? Did you notice anything new about them that you had become accustomed to because it was all you'd experienced?

Your Dsr definitely has Bluetooth connectivity. Put the key in and turn to ON. Make sure engine switch is off. Hold down the mode button on the bike for 5 seconds and you will see a little Bluetooth icon flash on the lower left corner of the gauge cluster. Now you're ready to pair with the app. Make sure to get the right zero app. There is a next gen and normal. DSR uses the normal version.

I've been riding for 40-plus years and I'm really tempted to get one of these bikes. But there is still a lot of mysteries and unanswered questions. About battery life and what happens when you do have one bad cell. How much for charging stations. Even dealers in my general area really don't have much information or many answers.
@andrewt9204
@andrewt9204 2 жыл бұрын
I'll just add some of my insight here in case you want it... The fastest way to degrade a battery (in an EV or any li-ion batt) is to have the charge levels below 10% and above 90%, keeping it between will really increase the number of charge cycles. (defined as 0-100% charge sessions. Charging from 0-50, riding 50-0, then charging 0-50% again would be 1 cycle). I keep my EV between 20-80%, which increases the expected cycles from 500-700, to well over 1500, to maybe even 2000. Keeping this bike between 10-90 should get you easily 100-120K+ miles before battery capacity reaches 80% of original. Bumping that charge margin to 15-85% should get you over 150K. Even then, the bike won't be junk, your range will just slowly keep on decreasing. I can't speak to what happens when a Zero has a bad cell, I haven't seen one torn down. I know in Tesla, each of the 4000+ cells are individually fused, so if one goes really bad, the fuse should break and not bring down the whole pack and instead only lose 0.02% capacity. Something to look out for on a Zero if your range suddenly decreases in the same conditions. Best to get it serviced right away. As for charging cost, electricity wise, you'd only pay $1.80 to go from 0-100% at $0.12kWh. Not bad for 120+ miles of possible range. If you buy the charge tank with the J1772 connector, charge station (EVSE) costs can vary wildly. You can get a cheap chinese brand EVSE from scamazon for about $200. You'd need a 240V outlet in your garage to really make use of an EVSE though. If not, add in somewhere between $300-1200 for a 240V receptacle install. Even if you could just run some 12ga wire somewhere to a wall mounted unit or a NEMA 6-20 outlet to get 3.8kW of power, you could 0-100% recharge this in 3-4hrs. A good EVSE will cost around $400-600 for something like a Chargepoint, Clipper creek, Grizzl-E, Juicebox, etc. I really like the Grizzl-E, it's very robust, and they have a mini version coming out that's reasonably portable. Hope that helps, was bit long winded...

You can't add both the power tank and the charge tank. 80% charge in 1 hour with charge tank. Average range is going to be less than 100 miles range. The S model has the charge tank option available and with the charge tank option is $3000 less than the dsr model without the charge tank option.

The DSR is a great bike. However, I'm happy with my Surron Storm Bee (Enduro version). It's a motocross bike with street legal parts. However, I ride it almost only off-road because I live off-road in the mountains of Mongolia. On house electricity (240v), it takes 3 hours to charge from 0-100% but I rarely use more than 50%. Most of my rides are 1-3 hours in the mountains. We have very low electricity prices so it costs next to nothing to run. It's got a chain so it's noisier but I wouldn't want a belt in my riding territory with loose rocks. I'm now a fan of electric bikes. I've also got an electric mountain bike and one cheap ICE motorcycle for when I need to take a passenger or go further than the Surron would allow. I could take the charger for a top up from a friendly homeowner but I haven't done that yet. Or put it in my truck along with a generator for multiple day trips from a base camp.

I have the prototype (pre-production) version. Reliability is not as good as my Surron Ultra Bee which was a full production bike. Sometimes the electric system just shuts down and displays some errors which even Surron doesn't want to do anything about. Parts are available from China directly but it's not a well supported after market like the LBX and then the Ultra Bee is somewhere in the middle. I think the production version would be a better proposition and hopefully they got the bugs out since the pre-production model that I have.@@shastamite2

Congratulations, magnificent video with a superb panorama and this motorcycle attracts me more and more because I have a Bomber that I assembled as a Kit, certainly much lighter which weighs only 80 kg with a nominal 8 Kw wheel motor and 12 Kw at peak and with my 77 kg it goes up to 100 km/h in 9 to 10 seconds but the autonomy of my battery which I had made to measure by a French specialist which is a 72 Volt 53 Ah does not gives only 65 km of maximum autonomy, the bms is a 100 A discharge and 50 A charge, when the controller is a Sabvoton of 150 A nominal and 350 A peak. I adjusted the engine brake in the advanced settings and it is really effective compared to this DSR where it is practically non-existent, it is one of the things to improve, and its price is much too high compared to the quality of its equipment . As I said to myself at ZERO, they should use much lighter and more powerful MOLICEL cells and directly incorporate a fast charger that does not take the place of the trunk in the false tank, this motorcycle for this high price should have better benefits. For information here is my Bomber: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jK-Hnpx4qKiXd5s.html Félicitations, magnifique vidéo avec un superbe panorama et cette moto m'attire de plus en plus car j'ai un Bomber que je me suis monté en Kit, certes beaucoup plus léger qui fait seulement 80 kg avec un moteur roue de 8 Kw nominal et 12 Kw en crête et avec mes 77 kg il monte maximum à 100 km/h en 9 à 10 secondes mais l'autonomie de ma batterie que j'ai fait fabriquer sur mesures par un spécialiste Français qui est une 72 Volts 53 Ah ne me donne que 65 km d'autonomie maximum, le bms est un 100 A en décharge et 50 A en charge, quand au contrôleur c'est un Sabvoton de 150 A nominal et 350 A en crête. j'ai réglé le frein moteur dans les paramètres avancés et il est vraiment efficace par rapport à cette DSR où il est pratiquement inexistant, ça fait partie des choses à améliorer, et son prix est beaucoup trop élevé par rapport à la qualité de son équipement. Comme je m'ai dit a ZERO, ils devraient utiliser des cellules MOLICEL bien moins lourdes et plus puissantes et y incorporer directement un chargeur rapide qui ne prenne pas la place du coffre dans le faux réservoir, cette moto pour ce prix élevé devrait avoir de meilleures prestations.

Didn't do any single track and you went around the puddles. Get 400 lbs.tipped over on a steep hill and you might not pick it up. At least it's not hot,burning your leg, flooding the carb and dumping gas out. What about rain,snow,,mud,river crossings? How's the battery in freezing cold or desert heat?

@@adam_riley his comment was valid. Here in America, especially on a motorcycle, you're going to be doing over 50 a LOT and range is very poor. No one said it wasn't a good commuter or asked what the average daily commute is. His comment about the range and charge time however was extremely reasonable considering that it's ONLY good for commuting and not for taking out on pleasure/leisure rides or long distances. I don't know many people that don't mind taking hour to 2-hour long breaks during their ride.

Nice vid...thanks. Since there are some off-road newbies on this channel, let me make one point clear. Turning off your ABS completely is generally a bad idea. If you can turn off the rear, that can be helpful when steering the rear or in certain steep & rocky descents, however, for us mere mortals, there is never a reason to turn off the front ABS. If it is a both off or none off choice (unless you and Chris Birch ride together regularly) leave it on. If you don't know Chris Birch and you are interested in big bikes off-road you might enjoy this: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aaeUodWayLOad2Q.html Thanks again for the video..subed

​@@dudea3378 Yeah, I built a 3kw road bike, 100 NM of torque supposedly. But I'll tell you straight there's no way the dinky chain is holding that much, it slips gears. I've gapped Groms until ~35 mph, but it's the responsiveness to wheelies that makes it fun, not the raw power when it's that damn light. Go check a Zero dyno video to get some idea of the losses lol

Why do motorcyclists feel the need to get insanely close to cars to pass by and around them? (11:30) Would you like it if a car did that to you? Passed double yellow lines to do it too. Motorcyclists treat the road like a playground, and get really pissed at cars that aren't "considerate" to them. Sorry, just tired of bikers doing that to me on the one lane highway I live near. Bikers give me anxiety when they drive up on my taillight like that. Stay the hell back off of people please. Nice bike though.

"Do a very quick charge on it"? C'mon man first of all 2 hours is not very quick. Anything that's going to get you reasonable range isn't even quick if you decide to just do a partial charge. Add on top that it's advertised at 2 hours and is really more like 2.5 and you have a "very long charge" lol. What are you going to be doing for all those hour long recharges after getting MAX 100 miles out of it @ freeway speeds. I didn't care for that comment. My own two cents for those out there that have less experience with these and honestly I don't think you should've said it. Do you work for Zero? A lot of the comments sound like marketing and not ownership, real world experience. Shill? Not a good reviewer but good intentions? IDK.

@M J Normal 110 outlet charge time is approximately 10 hours. When utilizing a J charger, it's 2 hours. 8 hours difference. When talking about the electric motorcycles we review, yeah, that is quick. Compared to filling up a fuel tank? No, it's not quick. I am speaking in context of what we're reviewing on this channel: Electric Motorcycles. No, I don't work for Zero and no they didn't pay for anything in this video. If you don't like the review, luckily you don't have to watch it again! Take care.
