Zero Motorcycles

Zero Motorcycles is the next step in motorcycle evolution and represents the ultimate electric motorcycle technology. Unencumbered by conventional thinking about how we design, manufacture, and sell high

performance electric motorcycles, we’re on a mission to turn heads and revolutionize our industry by com-bining the best aspects of a traditional motorcycle with today’s most advanced technology. The result is an electric motorcycle line that’s insanely fast, and environmentally friendly.

Since inception, Zero Motorcycles, Inc. (Formerly Electricross) has been dedicated to developing the very best in electric motorcycle technology. Built for both experienced and entry-level riders our premium motor-cycle line offers blistering acceleration and speed with optional settings for the less aggressive. What sepa-rates us from our competition is performance, quality and reliability of each bike.

Commitment to Quality

Our motorcycles are designed and manufactured with the highest quality standards. Each of our bikes are assembled and meticulously checked at our facilities in Scotts Valley California. We warranty our frames to be free from defects for one full year from date of purchase.

Aircraft grade aluminum is exclusively used in the con-struction of the lightweight and rigid Zero S. twin spar

frame. One look at the frame and it speaks for itself. It is aggressive, strong and one of the main reasons that the Zero S. can take on anything in an urban environment. Designed to have a low center of gravity, the Zero S. is highly maneu-verable and responsive. The body is completed using custom injected molded plastics to give it aerodynamics and aggres-sive supermoto styling.

Imagine instant torque and power from a stand-still. Imagine smooth acceleration as you race

out of turns. Then, imagine never needing to stop at the gas station.

Developed to aggressively take on urban envi-ronments and encourage the occasional detour, the Zero S. integrates revolutionary technology with innovative motorcycle design. Using Zero Motorcycles’ proprietary Z-Force power pack and aircraft grade alloy frame, the Zero S. features an industry leading power-to-weight ratio that increases its range and maneuverability.

Instant acceleration and a lightweight design en-able the Zero S. to take on any city street, hill or obstacle. Whether accelerating onto the highway or out of the turns, the Zero S. is designed for performance.

The Zero DS wheels are engineered to minimize unsprung weight and reduce rotating mass. Designed specifically for the Zero DS, the lightweight construction includes custom hubs, spokes, and rotors. To maximize overall wheel strength the hub is configured to use straight pull spokes. The resulting wheel is lighter, stronger and more responsive.

The dash is designed by Zero to quickly and accurately provide information on speed, charge and motor temperature. In the evening the dash lights up with the flip of a switch and is accompanied by a high intensity headlight. * Digital and analog speed display * Motor temperature

A compact and powerful motor drives the Zero DS. The new Z-Force Air Induction system allows the Zero DS to output more power from the motor by efficiently moving air through its core. Mounted low on the frame to increase maneuverability, the highly efficient motor lowers the center of gravity while providing high torque and acceleration.

The Zero DS combines innovation with passion to deliver the world’s most versatile electric

motorcycle. Designed to be agile in the dirt and quick on the street, the Zero DS represents a new kind of freedom.

Bypass the ordinary. Blast down a gravel road or a dusty trail. When you’re ready, silently pass from the sublime to the civilized as you arrive at your destination. The Zero DS is tough when you de-mand it and distinguished when required. Its edgy, yet sophisticated, appearance is highlighted by an eye catching twin spar frame that is both rigid and lightweight.

Powered by the most advanced drive train in the industry, the Zero DS is a fully electric motorcycle that can handle any surface you can throw at it. Navigating obstacles and maintaining control is ac-complished using a specially developed suspension system and a rugged wheel set. During technical maneuvers an optimized direct drive gear system delivers astonishing responsiveness with the twist of your wrist.

Once you’re in the air, it’s all about the landing.

The Zero MX takes our revolution-ary electric motorcycle technology

to the track. Incredibly tough and light-weight, the Zero MX uses our newly developed suspension system to absorb aggressive terrain and give you an edge. Combined with our state-of-the-art Z-Force™ technology and ultra-light frame design, the Zero MX is agile and fast where it counts.

By developing a custom suspension system we have made the Zero MX highly responsive while maintaining an industry leading power-to-weight ratio. During aggressive riding the advanced suspension system and alloy wheels take the hits while smoothly maintaining control. Intensity combines with silence to open up a new world of riding pos-

We’ve found a way of rapidly flowing more energy out of our power pack than any of our competitors. This means more acceleration and more fun.

At the core of the Zero MX lies the ultimate dirt bike frame that we’ve engineered from the ground up and hand crafted us-ing aircraft grade aluminum. The resulting combination of lower weight and higher strength means more responsiveness. In the turns and off the line this translates into greater acceleration. To make the frame even more durable each one is shot-peened and anodized.

To accommodate the Zero MX’s increased traction and ability to accelerate in the dirt we use a hardened steel 420 chain and direct drive gearing. The result is a stronger and more durable drivetrain that puts the power from the throttle directly into the dirt.

We want you to be able to take full advantage of the rapid acceleration the Zero MX has to offer. To do this we’ve taken our riders’ handling wish list and built in the features. The result, this electric dirt bike gives you the control you need to for the accel-eration you want.

Because you’ll be going faster and harder on our electric dirt bike we’ve added a few things to help slow you down. The 2010 Zero MX electric motorcycle features beefier brakes all around.

Driven by Zero Motorcycles’ revo-lutionary Z-Force™ technology, our motorcycles are designed to be high performance and lightweight. When combined with our proprietary lith-ium ion power pack, a Zero electric motor delivers more horsepower and greater acceleration. With an elec-tric motor you get 100% torque at all times for instantaneous throttle response and incredible off-the-line performance.

Cleanest FAST CHARGING AND ONE

TENTH THE POLLUTION

Years of development in our proprietary Z-Force™ technology make Zero Mo-

torcycles a leader in acceleration, range and longevity. Our fast chargers are completely automatic and use a specially developed charge profile to optimize charge times. You can leave your battery on the charger for hours, days, even months (if you are away from home). It’s ready to go when you are and plugs into any standard 110 or 220 volt outlet.

Electricity is a very clean and efficient form of energy. Although there is some pollution associated with the production of electricity, a Zero motorcycle will produce less than one-eighth of the CO2 pollution per mile at the power plant than a gas powered motorcycle. It will also produce 1/100th of the smog causing nitrous oxides.

Cleanest Created by Neal Saiki (a world renowned and award winning designer) Zero Motorcycles’

frames are engineered to combine high strength with low weight. Each frame is made using 100% aircraft grade aluminum. Developed using cutting edge computer aided design software, the entire Zero X frame weighs only 13 pounds and the Zero S. weighs only 18 pounds. Zero Motorcycles frames are welded by the world’s most highly skilled aluminum welders. Critical areas are ensured against failure using double pass welds and other techniques After welding, the entire frame is heat treated to restore the strength around the weld areas. The treatment process involves heating the frame in a furnace and then submerging it in a solution-bath to quench the hot metal.Finally, critical areas such as pivots, brake mounts, and chain-guide mounts are re-milled for absolute accuracy.

SUSPENSIONZero Motorcycles’ suspension systems are engi-neered by the industry’s leaders to meet the needs of our powerful, yet lightweight, electric motorcycle technology. Each motorcycle includes a custom-built, adjustable front fork and rigid double dia-mond rear swing arm.
