Lipo that's a nice tip but does somebody know a high quality pot that fits?
Would be nice if so we could share the type/brand/number ;)

I hadn't heard of this distinction between losing power while at a stop vs. while riding. When I first brought my bike home it was losing power when I came to a stop (nothing happened when twisting the throttle upon attempting to start again). I assumed this was the 'glitch' that others were talking about. A software update fixed this - it only happened once in the two years after that update.
BUT - I just took my bike to the dealership for the most recent 'update' - which didn't appear to do anything as far as improved performance or range..., but now it has this 'glitch' while riding!
Just after the update the motor would just cut off during acceleration at around 55 or 60 MPH. Ive had to pull over and restart the bike to get home - serveral times.
This is one reason (the other being the range) the bike is at the Zero factory right now. I dropped it off two weeks ago - still waiting to hear what they find.

BSDThw,

Unfortunately not. I did not have to change mine yet...CTS makes a good option -specs wise- but I have no idea if it will fit our throttle enclosure...

There has been some discussion about this subject, unfortunately I did not follow it.

I contacted Zero and spoke to one of the Ryan at the Zero office. He sais my motor and MBB are updated and they will send them back.

I really wish that the problems will be solved as well !

They realigned the encoder and sealed it and made the last firmware update on the MBB.
