Zero Motorcycles Dsr
The Zero Motorcycles Dsr has a top speed of 167 km/h, produces 70 hp and weighs 207 kg. Motoryk rates it 7.5/10.
De Zero DSR werd rond 2016 door Zero Motorcycles geïntroduceerd als een dual-sportvariant van hun assortiment elektrische motorfietsen, voortbouwend op het fundament van het eerdere DS-model. Hij werd gepositioneerd als een krachtigere, avontuurlijke elektrische fiets die zowel geschikt is voor woon-werkverkeer in de stad als voor licht offroad-gebruik, met een grotere Z-Force-motor en verbeterde batterijtechnologie. De DSR werd bekend als een van de meest capabele en actieradiusconcurrerende elektrische avonturenmotorfietsen op de markt, waardoor Zero een toonaangevende naam werd in het segment van elektrische motorfietsen.

Wat kopers moeten weten
Battery Longevity Matters
The Z-Force lithium battery is rated for over 2,000 charge cycles before significant degradation, but buyers should verify the battery health report on used models as replacements cost $3,000–$5,000+.
Minimal Mechanical Upkeep
With no oil changes, no clutch, no air filter, and fewer moving parts than combustion bikes, the DSR's maintenance costs are dramatically lower — typically under $100/year in routine service.
Steep Depreciation Curve
Zero DSRs depreciate quickly in the first 2–3 years due to rapid EV technology improvements, making used models a strong value buy — but reselling later can be challenging as newer models offer significantly more range.

Beoordeling van gebruikte kopers
"Brilliant urban weapon if battery health checks out clean."
$8,000-$14,000 usedThe DSR is genuinely impressive tech stuffed into a middleweight adventure-ish package. Torque delivery is instant and addictive — twist and you're gone, no drama, no hesitation. Around town it's genuinely brilliant, and the low center of gravity makes it feel lighter than the specs suggest. Used examples from 2016 onward are worth considering, but battery health is your biggest concern. Always ask for the charge history and push for a full charge test before handing over cash. Cells degrade, and replacement packs aren't cheap. Before buying, check the firmware version and whether the previous owner used a rapid charger obsessively — that hammers battery longevity faster than anything. The Cypher III models from 2020 onward got meaningful software improvements and better range. Older bikes can feel limited past 70mph, and wind exposure is real on longer runs. Parts support from Zero is decent but dealer networks are still thin in rural areas. Budget for a home charging setup too — it's basically mandatory.
