Complaints by model year
Newer model years have had less time on the road, so they naturally have fewer complaints. Compare a year against its neighbors rather than against brand-new models.

Zero SR recalls
Risk: A loose caliper may reduce braking, increasing the risk of a crash.
Risk: The incorrect rear brake pads may not work as intended, increasing the risk of a crash.
Risk: The DC-DC converter can shut off when its power capacity is exceeded, shutting off the ABS, instruments, and lights, increasing the risk of a crash.
Risk: If the affected 2018 motorcycles are ever subject to a recall, the owner may not realize the safety risk because of the misstated model year.
Risk: If the converter power output is insufficient, during an ABS activated event, the ABS and all vehicle lights would temporarily stop functioning, increasing the risk of a crash.
Risk: If the rotor contacts the stator, the motor could seize, locking up the rear wheel which could increase the risk of a crash.
