You'll save some going down the hills though also. Anyway I don't think it'd make it. I would thing a SR would go around 70 miles. Plan to maybe pull over and charge somewhere. Does it have the charge tank? If you not you'll have to find some kind of outlet and it's take FOREVER to charge.
So only one thread for electrics huh. Well I just bought one. A 2016 Zero SR ZF 13.0.
I am gonna pick it up from the guy in Santa Cruz this week. Do you think it can make it from Santa Cruz to Oakland? The specs say brand new it will do 90+ miles highway. What do you think? How about if I take 35 or HWY1? Is that more efficient?
I don't think so. To increase your odds of making it, go slow, like 60mph.
What is the status of the battery after 4 years? That may have an impact on this as well, right?
Catch a draft on the way back. Or come back during rush hour for that slower riding economy
You're saying that based on personal experience? Zero rated the ZF13 pack at 108 miles range at 55. Actual distance is 81 miles. If he does 2-lane roads for half the trip he'll make it with 20% to spare.
Grats HadesOmega.Podium finish for every race I entered. The Light Bee got second in GPC and Adult Mini Supermoto. People could not believe how fast that little electric bike was haha!
And wait around ten hours or so!If you don't have the charge tank you will have to look for 110V outlets.

But not really always true. I charge my 2017 Zero SR with power tank (NOT charge tank) at 6.3 KWs while on the road. From J-1772, or a Tesla Destination charge station or even a 240 VAC outlet. See my Zero SR charging here, with my chargers. There I am charging from 120 VAC and 240 VAC at the same time. 120 VAC going to the OBC.
I bring two Elcon 2.5 KW chargers, one in each side bag. I wire them to the motor controller battery connections and also use the OBC for a total of 6.3 KW. I charge as fast as 8.4 KWs at home, by adding in two Delta-Q chargers using a Tesla Tap for the entire 8.4 KW from my 12 KW Tesla Wall Connector.
