Z-FORCE 15.6 BATTERY PACK

The Z-FORCE 15.6 kWh lithium-ion battery requires no maintenance or upkeep and makes the DSR capable of 249 km of city range. Riders can extend their range even farther with the available Power Tank accessory (dealer install required). The battery’s industry-leading power and energy density combined with an aluminum heat-sink housing and thermal transfer interface ensure consistent cell cooling and maximum long-term powertrain performance.

RAPID CHARGING SYSTEM

Our Rapid Charge System is customizable for various charging levels but the baseline for the Zero DSR is a powerful 3.3 kW charger. To get even faster charging you can elect to install the available Rapid Charging Cypher accessory and boost your onboard charging power. Alternatively, you can use the included EVSE cord to charge the Zero DSR from any standard wall outlet for an overnight charge.

Z-FORCE 75-10X

The 2024 DSR uses the Z-Force 75-10X direct drive motor variant which utilizes an internal permanent magnet, brushless architecture, and a passively air-cooled, compact design delivers class-leading performance and efficiency with virtually no maintenance required. This motor is specially tuned for the rigors of navigating rough terrain. This motor delivers 170 N-m of torque and 52 kW of immediate power stock, with upgrades available up to 195 N-m of torque and 60 kW following achievement of local licensing requirements and a deal-installed firmware update.

CHASSIS

The Zero DSR uses the same geometry and design of the same steel-trellis frame found on Zero’s Street Motorcycles but is reinforced for the rigors of challenging terrain. The powertrain is perfectly distributed, resulting in a weight-optimized/mass-centralized design. The Zero DSR componentry is also situated differently to optimize for adventure by providing a category-leading 24.6 cm of ground clearance. Paired with a coaxial power-pivot swingarm which has also been reinforced to handle greater loads under harsher conditions, the architecture of the bike and Showa’s adventure suspension delivers a nimble and controlled riding experience.

LINKED BRAKING

The DSR features a linked braking system. Controlled by the integrated Bosch Motorcycle Stability Control System, it activates instantly upon sensing a loss of traction or any slippage. The system immediately applies the right amount of braking to the front and rear brakes simultaneously, providing added control when climbing or descending steep, loose terrain. The Zero DSR is equipped with J. Juan radial 4-piston calipers with radial master cylinders to clench down on dual 320x5 mm disc brakes up front and another J. Juan pair of 2x25 mm pistons biting down on a 265x4.5 mm disc in the rear.

SEE CLEARLY

Customize your dash or simply let the industry’s gold standard in auto-contrasting light sensing do all the work for you. Data fields abound when you choose the bike info you want to be displayed and read it clearly on the optically bonded, full-color 12.7 cm TFT display. Multi-mode navigation enables on-the-fly ride mode switching, cruise-control, heated grip control, and much more.

DIALED SUSPENSION

The DSR delivers a smooth ride fit for any terrain or load with enhanced suspension for your ADV outings. A 47-mm Showa fork offers 18.7 cm of travel and full adjustability. Also, the convenient dial for hand-adjusting preload on the new Showa shock also offers the perfect accommodation for a pillion rider or fully-loaded optional TRAX ADV cases (sold separately).

RUBBER SIDE DOWN

The DSR can navigate virtually any obstacle in its way thanks to its incredibly light and durable cast wheels, 19” up front and 17” in the rear. These come wrapped in Pirelli Scorpion Trail II tires for uniformly excellent performance on all surface types. However, the indomitable Pirelli Scorpion Rally STR tires are available for those riders who want to upgrade their DSR into a fully trail-rated off-road monster.

CARBON STRONG

Zero collaborated with Gates Carbon Belt Drive, the leader in belt-driven powersport technologies, to develop an entirely new belt drive system for the DSR. Wider, stronger, and more capable than ever, the Gates Carbon Drive Moto X9™ belt is paired to the Mudport Wheel Sprocket with larger, ported sprockets to reduce bend angles and eliminate debris from the drive train. This combination results in the most durable drive system that is found on any electric motorcycle.
*Chain Kit option available as accessory purchase

LIGHT THE WAY

See the road ahead like never before and ensure it always sees you with the custom-made full LED headlight and LED taillight with opalescent light-pipe for unrivaled lateral visibility. The 2024 DSR can be upgraded with optional LED turn and hazard indicators so you can be confident your intentions are broadcast as far as possible in any low light situations.

ROOM TO SPARE

The DSR comes stock with 28L of onboard storage volume in various storage compartments. From the covert stash spots on the motorcycle to the voluminous tank assembly storage sometimes referred to as a “frunk,” the DSR is delivered with thoughtful storage options that complement your favorite ADV riding gear. Also, the DSR can be equipped with dozens of bespoke storage cases from some of the most trusted names in Adventure Riding.

    Max capacity:
    Maximum capacity tends to be the electric vehicle industry’s choice for reporting the maximum amount of energy that can be stored in a vehicle’s power pack. About kWh : Where gasoline vehicles use gallons, electric vehicles frequently use kilowatt hours (kWh) to measure the total possible ‘fuel’ or energy storage capacity. The Formula: Maximum kWh = (# of cells) * (cell Amp-hour capacity rating) * (cell max voltage rating)
    15.6 kWh
    Nominal capacity:
    Nominal capacity is the most accurate measure of the amount of usable energy that can be stored in a vehicle’s power pack. It differs from maximum capacity because it is calculated using an average voltage that is more often ‘the norm’ rather than a maximum which is rarely seen. About kWh: Where gasoline vehicles use gallons, electric vehicles frequently use kilowatt hours (kWh) to measure the total possible ‘fuel’ or energy storage capacity. The Formula: Nominal kWh = (# of cells) * (cell Amp-hour capacity rating) * (cell nominal voltage rating)

    ECONOMY
  • Equivalent fuel economy (city):
    Electric vehicle fuel economy is measured in Miles Per Gallon equivalent (MPGe) which indicates, via an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) prescribed formula, how far an electric vehicle can go using the same amount of energy as is contained in one gallon of gasoline. Electric vehicles are much more efficient than their internal combustion engine (ICE) counterparts. An electric vehicle powertrain can turn above 90% of the energy supplied to it into usable motive power. An ICE powertrain can only turn about 25-30% of its supplied energy into motive power. The result is that an electric vehicle powertrain can operate at over three times the efficiency of its ICE counterparts. The Formula: Equivalent Fuel Economy, City = (EPA UDDS range) / (Power Pack nominal capacity) x 33.7 (EPA kWh per gallon of gasoline)
    398 MPGe (0.59 l/100 km)
    Typical cost to recharge:
    This indicates the average cost to recharge a fully drained power pack. More often, riders will be charging a partially drained power pack and will have a lower cost of recharge. The actual cost of recharging will always be dictated by the amount of charge put into the power pack and the cost of electricity flowing from the particular outlet. The Formula: Typical cost to recharge = (Average consumer cost per KWh) X (Power Pack nominal capacity) / (charging efficiency). Charging efficiency is 0.94 for all 2013-later models.
