Starting And Operating
First Time Set-Up
If your motorcycle was direct-shipped you will need to
perform the following:
1.
Remove the motorcycle from its shipping crate.
See Unpacking Your Zero Motorcycle on page 4-2.
2.
You must charge the power pack before riding the
motorcycle. See Charging The Power Pack on
page 4-10.
3.
Identify and inspect wheels for spoke tension and/
or damage (DS only).
4. Check the tire pressure and adjust to proper
specifications. See Tire Inflation on page 5-10.
5. Inspect the hydraulic brake system. Follow the
hydraulic line from the reservoirs to the calipers
and verify that there are no leaks or damage to
the brake lines. Verify that the brakes function
properly.
6. Make sure the motorcycle key switch is OFF, then
twist the throttle to make sure it’s rotation is
smooth, and it returns correctly.
7. Inspect bolts and make sure they are tight. See
Bolt Torque Table on page 5-2. Double check the
fork, wheel, and brake bolts.
8. Insert the key in the key switch and turn the key to
the ON position. The gauge will perform a self
test sweep. The charge indicator should read fully
charged.
