Zero SR/S
Just a few weeks after the publication of the first teaser, a new model has been unveiled. Zero Motorcycles rolled out the new Zero SR/S 2020, which is the company’s first electric bike with a fairing. The premiere was originally scheduled for Feb. 24, but Zero had to accelerate due to a leaked video.
The Zero SR/S 2020 is, as expected, a sporty touring bike. It has a more relaxed fit than the SR/F. This was achieved at the expense of a higher handlebar, low footpegs, and an additional windbreaker. The saddle height is 787 mm, and the electric bike weight is 229 kg (standard model) and 234 kg (premium model).
The updated geometry should guarantee comfort in the saddle, especially for taller riders. Thanks to aerodynamics, the range on the freeway increased by 13 percent. The passenger was not forgotten either. The large saddle and low footrests should not create discomfort.
The Zero SR/S 2020 is powered by a Neuked powertrain: a ZF75-10 electric motor with a ZF14.4 battery pack. The cruising range is expected to be 260 km in the city and 132 km on the highway. If you install a “Power Tank,” you can increase the range to 165 km on the highway. The top speed is 200 km/h.
Charging up to 95 percent takes 1 hour with a special charger for 6 kW or 4 hours with a standard charger for 3 kW. Other features include the Bosch directional stability system, cornering ABS, and 14 modes. The Zero Cypher III operating system is used for control.
