Carbon strong
Zero Motorcycles 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 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.
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 155 miles 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 charge system
Zero Motorcycles' Rapid Charge System is customizable to multiple charging levels. The DSR stock 3.3 kW charge configuration can be upgraded to 6.6 kW. To gain even faster charging, riders can purchase and install through a local dealer the 6kW Rapid Charging Module accessory to add an additional 6kW of charge capacity. Regardless of the onboard charging capacity and configuration, you can always use the included EVSE cord to charge the Zero DSR from any standard wall outlet for an overnight charge.
Z-Force 75-10X
The Z-Force 75-10X direct drive motor is specially tuned for the rigors of navigating rough terrain. It 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 delivers 140 lb-ft of torque and 80 hp of immediate power stock, with upgrades available up to 169 ft-lb and 100 hp.
Chassis
The Zero DSR uses the same geometry and design of the steel-trellis frame found on Zero Motorcycles' 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 situated differently to optimize for adventure by providing a category-leading 9.7” 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 Advanced 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 J.Juan front and rear brakes simultaneously, providing added control when climbing or descending steep, loose terrain.
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 focus on, clearly legible on the full-color 5” TFT display. Multi-mode navigation enables on-the-fly ride mode switching, cruise-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 7.4 inches 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. 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.
