Zero DS (2019 onwards)
The Zero DS is a dual-sport version of the basic model of the motorcycle, the Zero S, which is a lightweight street bike with a smaller battery. The DS, on the other hand, is a much bigger and heavier motorcycle that has a longer battery range and that is aimed at adventure riders.
The motorcycle comes with two different battery options (ZF14.4 / ZF7.2). Each of the batteries has different range and specifications. The ZF7.2 battery version (lower capacity) has a 80 miles range and is 43 kg lighter than the ZF14.4 version (higher capacity), which has a range around 105 miles.
The bike comes with an ABS and fully adjustable suspension. The torque output of the motorcycle is phenomenal. In fact, is it so powerful that you will get a better acceleration with this bike than with much bigger gas-powered dual-sport bikes such as the KTM Superduke.
So, the Zero DS is a super fun motorcycle to ride and it is one of the best dual-sport electric bikes. You can either use it for riding around cities or take it out for some country road trips. It is comfortable for longer rides and it has a lot of power to offer. Unfortunately, there is no traction control, which is one of the very few downsides of the bike.
