=Overview=
This describes the Zero [[FST Platform]] and includes as many service tasks not described (or incompletely described) in the [[Official Owners Manual]] as customers have identified.
: Relevant Models: [[SRF Model]] and [[SRS Model]].
: Some information might be hearsay or not completely communicated, but attempts have been made to verify as much as possible.
: As with anything in a wiki environment, whatever you undertake with this as a guide is your own responsibility.
__TOC__
==[[FST Platform|Platform]]==
Zero motorcycles benefit from some commonality around the powertrain. The [[#Motor|motor]], [[#Controller|controller]], [[#Battery_Management_System|BMS]] and [[#Main_Bike_Board|MBB]] are more or less shared across all models, along with handlebars and controls.
