My Zero DS has 2000km behind the wheels now without any problems.
I run it every day to work and back about 600km a week.
last week I drove it in the wet and everything went fine until I parked at home.
I put the standard plug in for charging and when I put it the home 230V socket I saw a small electric spark skip over.
I looked if the bike was charged by looking at the display but it was dead even after turning the ignition key.
The bike was fixed by the dealer and He stated that the MBB module had been replaced.
Can anyone explain what that is and what the function is, I am still a petrolhead without much knowledge of electic bikes.
But I love to ride the Zero and am happy with 2 years of warranty!!!

MBB = master (or main) bike board. It's essentially the brain of the bike. My MBB apparently failed twice. And then the third one needed to be reprogrammed. It's either a software error that's causing these components to fail or there are some serious manufacturing defects in several of these boards. (Or maybe they weren't engineered well)

Let me guess: You live in the Netherlands?
Somehow Dutch rain kills electric motorcycles. :)

Yes I live in the Netherlands but I don't know if it was the rain causing the problem.
I have driven a total of 5000 km now in much worse circumstances and the DS is doing fine.
Still driving it with a big :)
