Starting and OperatingStarting 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. Your Zero Motorcycle is shipped fully
charged from the factory. If necessary, see “
Charging
the Power Pack”, on page 4-10.
3. Identify and inspect wheels for spoke tension and/ or
damage.
4. Check the tire pressure and adjust to proper
specifications. See “
Tire Inflation”, on page 5-13.
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 its rotation is smooth, and it
returns correctly.
7. Inspect bolts and make sure they are tight. See Bolt
Torque Table on page 5-5
. 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.
