The DSR / X works in concert with the Zero Motorcycles mobile app and our Cellular Connectivity Module ( CCM ) to allow owners to control a nearly limitless amount of ride characteristics from speed to torque as well as battery performance and regen functions . When away from the motorcycle , the app can notify users about charging status , help them find their bike or alert them to tip-over events from anywhere in the world .
The motorcycle itself offers a collection of new parts and accessories to outfit riders for any adventure . Riders can find customized DSR / X accessories such as saddle bags , skid plate , windscreens , covers , top and side cases , and more . The DSR / X can also trade a portion of its onboard storage capacity for either a Power Tank to increase the battery capacity to nearly 21 kWh or an additional Rapid Charge Module that will double the charging speed and reduce the minimum charge time to approximately one hour .

To elevate every possible aspect of the riding experience , the company is also fostering industry partnerships .

This partnership highlights the growing infrastructure of public EV charge stations along proven ADV routes and builds a foundation for future infrastructure planning by identifying open service points along new routes currently under development . The most immediate benefits of this partnership will include a library of attainable , achievable , and available routes to follow on electric motorcycles from coast to coast .
