2020 ZERO SR/F
FIRST LOOK
Z
ero unveiled its all-new
SR/F electric motorcycle.
In a huge step for the
Santa Cruz-based company, the
2020 Zero SR/F claims a mas-
sive 140 lb-ft of torque and 110
horsepower thanks to the new
ZF75-10 motor and ZF14.4 lithi-
um-ion battery, a vastly reduced
charging time and a 200-mile
range with the addition of the
Zero Power Tank.
The 2020 Zero SR/F bat-
tery can be charged to 0-95
percent in one hour—if you use
three separate charging devices.
Zero calls this the Rapid Charge
System. It aims to make more use
of the growing network of Level
2 charge stations around the
country.
As for the electronics, there's
plenty on offer. Zero's fitted the
Bosch MSC (Motorcycle Stability
Control) that works in conjunction
with the new Cypher III operating
system. Cypher III is the bike's
brain and integrates all the systems
in use and lets you alter the four
different riding modes in Street,
Sport, Eco, Rain, with up to 10
2020 Zero
programmable custom modes.
The MSC takes care of ABS and
cornering brake control, traction
control and drag torque control.
One thing Zero is particularly
proud of is the new app. The new
version allows riders to monitor
bike status and alerts, charg-
ing, ride data sharing, system
upgrades and updates for the
