When it made its debut in 2019, the SR/F was considered by Zero to be the “halo model” of its electric naked bike lineup. The SR/F has nice streetfighter-type styling (hence the model designation “SR/F—StReetFighter”) that rivals any gasoline-powered motorcycle, which is something that can’t be said for many electric bikes. The Zero’s bodywork and lines flow together nicely, with a stacked LED headlight framed by “opalescent light-pipes” on each side that also help with side visibility upfront, blending into a very streetfighter-esque stylishly stubby tailsection out back. But the SR/F is much more than just flair; in order to be designated a flagship of Zero’s lineup, the company made sure it was packed with technology and performance that properly reflected Zero’s manufacturing capabilities and EV motorcycle development.
To that end, the SR/F carries the latest 17.3kWh battery and 6.6kW integrated charger, meaning just a little over an hour to charge to 95 percent using a Level 2 charging station, and a combined city/highway range of 117 miles. A Z-Force 75-10 interior permanent magnet motor uses that energy to produce 140 lb.-ft. of torque and peak of 111 hp at 5,600 rpm, able to propel the SR/F to a top speed of 124 mph. Suspension is the same as the other S models, with a fully adjustable (spring preload, rebound and compression damping) Showa 43mm BP-SFF fork upfront and a similarly adjustable Showa 40mm-piston piggyback rear shock. The Cypher III+ operating system offers five riding modes: Rain, Eco, Standard, Sport, and Canyon; Canyon differs from Sport by its usage of higher Neutral and Brake regen levels.
The 2024 Zero SR/F is available in Aileron/Coral or Thermal/Black starting at $20,495.
