Z-FORCE 75-7
The all-new Z-Force 75-7 motor is Zero’s latest in a long line of enhanced thermal efficiency, passively air-cooled, interior permanent magnet AC motors. The 2024 Z-Force 75-7 shares the exterior motor hardware of the DSR/X, the pinnacle of the Zero dual sport line, to shed heat fast but utilizes different internal architecture to maximize power and drastically reduce weight. The result is overall cost savings for an 11kW category killer in the dual sport electric class.
POWER PIVOT
Just like the best electric dual sport motorcycle in the world, the Zero DSR/X, the 2024 DS features the proprietary and reinforced concentric motor and swingarm pivot design. This provides optimal architecture to ensure constant drive-belt tension and maximum torque delivery to the rear wheel. A custom-designed, large-bearing swingarm pivot allows ample space for the high-performance motor while allowing a slim chassis waist to enhance rider ergonomics and bike maneuverability either through traffic or through rutted-out back country.
EFFORTLESS CONTROL
The 2024 Zero DS is updated with Zero’s latest Cypher III+ operating system with a suite of standard performance features. Bosch Motorcycle Stability Control (MSC), including the Offroad MSC that is also found on the DSR/X, is equal parts brawn and brains. Effortless power is paired with intuitive control, creating the new standard for premium performance at an incredibly attainable price point. The Zero DS is an adaptable motorcycle and powertrain combination that navigates diverse road terrain and conditions, effortlessly.
CYPHER III+
The absolute gold standard for electric motorcycle operating systems, Cypher III+ is the conductor behind an orchestra of instruments propelling the Zero DS. The Zero DS is infinitely customizable and comes with the ability to add new Cypher Features through the NextGen app. Elevate your ride with the ultimate riding experience.
ARSENAL OF RIDE MODES
The Zero DS's arsenal of ride modes allows the rider to customize the bike's performance through Zero’s intuitive NextGen app and dash interface. The DS navigates the road no matter the conditions with Rain, Eco, Standard, Sport, and Canyon modes pre-loaded along with a virtually infinite number of custom-tuned mode adjustments available. Plus, these adjustments can be made in each ride mode and saved for use during both on and off-road conditions.
EFFORTLESS CONNECTION
The Zero DS is not just connected, but truly "smart" with the Cypher III+ operating system and available over-the-air (OTA) updates. Customize the dash, access the NextGen app with standard features, and enjoy limitless possibilities. Futureproof intelligence and unmatched power make the DS the ultimate ride with seamless connection in every detail.
THE CONNECTED BIKE
The Zero DS is connected through cellular networks, transmitting info to the NextGen app at all times. The app offers access to a host of ride information including current bike status and location that are always available. This connectivity gives the rider the ability to monitor the bike in four main areas: Bike Status & Alerts, Charging, Ride Data Sharing, and OTA System Updates.
ADVANCED APP
Zero’s NextGen app works with the dash and Cypher III+ to create a feature-rich ecosystem with access to new Cypher Features where upgrades can be selected with the tap of a finger. Faster Charging, On-Dash Navigation, and Parking Mode are just a few of the features available for you to choose from. Other features already included for free within the app include ride mode selection and creation, personalized dash options, scheduled and target-based charging, and so much more.
