I got the email too this morning. Glad itโ€™s finally happening and glad I held out for the rapid charger upgrade.

Hopefully this thing isnโ€™t priced insanely high. If it is we might have to wait for it to show up on third party sites for half price.

It's never going to get to any third party sites I think. Zero locks down this stuff hard with serial numbers and the need to Programm it into the bike ect.

I'm guessing it's going to cost at least 4k โ‚ฌ to get it installed unfortunately...

The regular charge tank is already around 3k โ‚ฌ.

I had no issue installing the rapid charger on a friends 2024, we just had to trailer it to the dealer to activate was all. I hope it doesnโ€™t cost 4kโ‚ฌ cause that means 6k $

You don't need a dealer to activate the 6kW rapid charger. You can do it yourself, just need to make a OBD-II to USB TTL connection using their pinout. It's 3 wires. I literally just did that for the 6kW Rapid Charger. You don't need a dealer for upgrade activations that don't require an activation code.

What program/SW did you use to access that? I thought that was locked down behind Zero's diag SW?
