Zero Motorcycles Forum | 2013+ / Re: No IPM motor on 2016 FX! ... FXS or FX ??
« on: December 04, 2016, 09:00:38 AM »
2016 FX Motor Specs:Z-Force 75-5 passively air-cooled, high efficiency, radial flux permanent magnet, brushless motor
2016 FX High efficiency, 420 amp, 3-phase brushless controller with regenerative deceleration
2017 FX Motor Specs:Z-Force 75-5 passively air-cooled, high efficiency magnet, brushless motor
2017 FX Magnet Configuration: Radial flux interior permanent
2017 Controller: High efficiency, 550 amp, 3-phase brushless controller with regenerative deceleration
I think it is - also the controller got upgraded.. might be time to trade/sell my 2013 FX 5.7

« on: December 04, 2016, 08:46:31 AM »Motor overheating only happens when you've got the throttle pinned open for long periods of time. This mainly happens on the freeways and is extremely unlikely to happen off road.
I have never had any overheating issues even after a few freeway trips. I don't think the difference is great enough to justify modifying an FXS back to an FX just to avoid overheating on off road conditions.
Or when dragging a deer sled with fresh kill on it.. (happened to me in deep snow here in Virginia)

Tesla should buy them and integrate their product into their supercharger network. Game, Set, Match!

I have a 2013 FX with 650 miles on it. Tonight took it on the highway and got it up to 90 ish MPH, after about ten minutes at that sustained speed the temp sensor went light came on. I slowed down to 75 MPH and it turned off. Ambient temperatures tonight were around 59 degrees F - can't imagine what it's going to be like in summer at 110 degrees F and same situation? Is this normal?

hybrid Pedals in Arlington would be a good one. They specialize in electric bikes (I bought 3 PEDEGO's from them this year) and they really understand the technology. They even sell the B-52.

I paid $5395 for my 2013 with 98 miles on it from a dealer - just a couple a months ago. That is excessively overpriced. Look at ebaymotors.com and do a search on all years completed sales of FX's no 2013's have sold for more than $6300....
Run away from that deal - If you want a 2013 for that much I'll sell you mine for that price and it has new batteries, new motor, LED Dot approved headlight, off road LED Rigid Industries lights, hand guard protectors, two high speed chargers and all LED lights (brake, signal etc).
