Do you have a power tank Brian?  For me, granny speed is eco mode on an SR, and maybe because Im spoiled by sport mode  ;)  So sadly the SR can only carry my 245lb ass for 65 miles highway at 70mph before Im down to single digits on the battery.  Im told payload doesnt matter so much as motor RPMs, but the extra weight has to create extra load thereby impacting range.  Im probably not very aerodynamic so that hurts my range as well.  I posted a pic of my National Cycle Street Shield EX in the windscreen topic...   (Adding Politically correct disclaimer) I do not mean to disparage Zero at all, I love my SR!!!  ;D

That's the range I get too, 65 miles from 100% to 2% on a 2016 SR in ECO mode at max throttle 70mph with large Givi bag loaded up and me at 200lbs.
