Hello everyone,

Is there a way to check battery health with the app? My 2015 DS 9.4 doesn't seem to be getting the range it use to. It has a little over 8800 miles. On the instrument panel I use the range and trip 2. I am wondering if the instrument panel is goofy. Today I left with 100% and rode 7.6 miles which used 12% according to the instrument panel. Around town I would normally use about 1% per mile and the range would be 100 miles or so and now it is close to 80. The trip odometer on the app said I rode 14 miles, which I did not. The really odd thing is it charged back up in about 20 minutes which normally would take closer to an hour. The app also says it needs a firmware update. It has been sitting in the garage where it has been getting as low as 40 degrees but it was low 60's when I left today. It has been like this the last few times I rode it.
I am hoping to sell it but don't want to with a bad battery.

Thanks!

How do you know it is a token effort? I realize that riding an electric motorcycle is not going to save Earth. It is just one of many things I do to try to lessen my impact on the planet. All combined I hope I am making a difference. As a bonus, riding my Zero is the most fun I have ever had on a motorcycle.

I like the size of the Zeros. I am a fairly big guy 6'3" and after riding bigger bikes, (last one was a Triumph Tiger 1050) I find the lighter quicker handing 2015 Zero DS that I ride more fun than the bigger bikes. Of course I mostly use it around town.  I would be happy with basically the same bike with more range, faster charging and a better seat. I am looking at getting a DSR when the 2020 models come out. I would like to set it up with side boxes and a good windshield for longer trips and get a Corbin seat and hit the road.

I just emailed 2X2 cycles and was told they do make a bicycle rack for Zeros. He said you need a zero luggage rack on your bike and that's it. He said he sent out 4 or 5 in the last month. I had never heard of them before. I am going to check it out. Thanks for the info!

I have a 2015 DS. I will plan on going there next Wednesday around 10:30. I am retired so I have plenty of time and would like to help out on this.

I noticed that digiNow chargers are not on the Hollywood Electrics webpage. Does anyone know if they will be available again?
