Honestly - yes, it's junk. I started having problems with my 2012 Zero s 200 miles after I bought it. I have been waiting for a replacement motor for 6 MONTHS at this point. The bike has 2,000 miles on it and it's completely unrideable. There is obviously a problem with these motors and Zero is for sure hiding a serious problem with this model and year.  I live in VA - I don't ride in the cold. The bike lurches and loses power every single time I ride it. I was almost run down when trying to make a turn when the bikes power completely stopped when I was going 15 MPH. I have ZERO interest in working with this company anymore and will be selling this POS IF I EVER CAN GET THESE SHADY ASSHATS to ever replace the part thats been defective basically since I bought the bike. Comcast has more scruples than this company.  They have  lied to me for 3 months about when my part is coming in - every month it's just "2 more weeks." Nothing. Then more nothing. Then more nothing. If they had a shred of decency they would refund my money in full. But clearly they have no decency. I will be filing a class action suit soon against the company if they don't completely take this junk back and give me a full refund. Wow it was a great 200 miles then total unadulterated crap.

Flexydude I'm right there with you. I'm being told my bike has a motor issue (at a whopping 2500 miles) and it will take 2-3 months to get a new one in and "tough luck." I'm still under warranty and they seriously think I'm going to live with waiting 2-3 months to get my new motor? How on earth can they take that long to get a new motor for a KNOWN issue with this bike? Are they replacing that many? And if SO then why isn't there a nationwide recall on these bikes? Something smells rotten.

Update: sent Zero an email with the issue Friday. As of today not a word in response. Not exactly jumping right on the issue are they? I'll be picking my "still not working" bike today - pray I don't get killed from a growling motor on the highway while I wait for my "precious" 2012 motor to come in by January. Seriously...?

Gotta say I'm pretty disgusted with my 2012 zero s at this point. I have had i for a year and a half, it has 2500 miles on it and I basically cannot ride it because of the exact problems you mention here. I can't be riding on the highway and have the motor slow down from 70 to 55 in 1 second like happened to me last week. I have had problems with the motor "growling" and lurching 7 consecutive times. Brought it to the dealer and after a full week they basically said zero knows this is an issue, needs to replace the motor but that it will be 2-3 months before they can get a replacement. Basically said "tough luck" until then.

This bike has been treated with the ultimate in kid gloves. Not only has it never been left in the rain - it has never seen a DROP of water on it. I keep it in a garage both at work and home and never ride when there is even a possibility of rain. I wipe it down with a cloth. It has less than 100 miles a month on it.

And now I have to wait 2-3 months for it to be fixed 18 months after I bough it brand new? That my friends is complete crap. I'm going to contact zero directly to express my displeasure but I feel like I paid for a very expensive bike and now I have to wait to ride it after it is barely broken in. It's not right. They need to do a LOT better.
