The 2024 Zero DSR has 3 recalls, the most serious being a front brake hose that can twist and wear through, leaking brake fluid and causing a significant drop in braking pressure that raises the risk of a crash.
The brake hose issue is the same underlying defect and should be treated as one problem: a damaged hose reduces the rider's ability to slow or stop the motorcycle, particularly in an emergency. Separately, the key switch signal wiring may be routed in a way that allows the wires to chafe and break over time. When that happens, the motorcycle can lose drive power unexpectedly while riding, leaving the rider with no throttle response and the potential to be caught off guard in traffic.
