Overview¶
This describes the Zero SDS Platform and includes as many service tasks not described (or incompletely described) in the Official Owners Manual as customers have identified.
Relevant Models: S Model, DS Model, SR Model, and DSR Model.
Some information might be hearsay or not completely communicated, but attempts have been made to verify as much as possible.
As with anything in a wiki environment, whatever you undertake with this as a guide is your own responsibility.
Platform¶
Zero motorcycles benefit from some commonality around the powertrain. The motor, controller, BMS and MBB are more or less shared across all models, along with handlebars and controls.
The Gen2 SDS Platform follows the Gen1 S Platform, building on a single evolving frame design around a compartment sized for a full battery power pack (the Monolith), but also featuring a 3-Brick battery or a Longbrick battery for lower entry-cost models.
