Zero X Electric Motorcycle

Product Description

Product Description A full-sized, high-performance electric motorcycle, the Zero X is built from the ground up using revolutionary electric motorcycle technology. Boasting 50 pounds of torque, the proprietary Z-Force drive train supplies the raw power needed to stealthily race up hills, fly over jumps, and plunge through streams. Elimination of combustion noise makes aggressive riding possible without the disruption of nature or neighbors. The Z-Force drive train and specially-engineered, aircraft-grade aluminum frame combine to form a motorcycle that is fast, light, and clean. An exceptional power-to-weight ratio and spontaneous acceleration make the Zero X stand out in the dirt.

Frame Welded by hand by highly-skilled aluminum welders, the Zero X features double pass welds in critical areas and other techniques to ensure against failures. After welding, the entire frame is heat treated to restore the strength around the weld areas. The heat treatment process involves heating the frame in a furnace and then solution-bath quenching the hot metal. Finally, critical areas such as pivots, brake mounts, and chain-guide mounts are re-milled for absolute accuracy.

• Hydroformed top tub for increased strength and reduced weight
• Massive swingarm for increased strength and torsional rigidity (better cornering and tracking)
• Large cylindrical swingarm cross tube for increased stiffness and suspension response
• Thru-axle rear hub for exponentially increased strength and rigidity
• Entire frame is shot-peened and anodized for resistance to corrosion and abrasion
• Organic frame gusseting for increased strength and smoother body lines

Motor and Energy The Fast Charger will fully recharge your battery in less than two hours. The power packs deliver 300 amps of current without overheating, offering a strong power-to-weight ratio. Zero's magnet electric motor delivers over 20 horsepower and requires very little maintenance. Zero only uses safe second-generation lithium ion cells to ensure against thermal runaway (fire). The power packs also feature an intelligent monitoring system that constantly tracks the voltage and temperature of each and every cell. Additionally, the power packs deliver 300 amps of current without overheating, offering a strong power-to-weight ratio. Zero's permanent magnet electric motor delivers over 20 horsepower and requires very little maintenance.

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

• Hardened steel 420 Chain
• Front and rear accompanying 420 Sprockets
• Larger rear sprocket mounting/bolt pattern for increased durability and better management of high torque acceleration

Suspension The Zero suspension system is tough enough to handle monstrous jumps and includes custom-built, fully-adjustable hydraulic front forks. The rear suspension is a unique double diamond swingarm and adjustable coil-spring rear shock.

Handling To take full advantage of the Zero X's spontaneous acceleration, the handling was refined based on the comments of pro riders. The result is that this electric dirt bike provides the control you need for quick handling in tight situations.

• Direct mount (to fork crown) double clam stem for increased rigidity and control
• Increased rise and reduced reach stem for better control and stability
• Wider, taller, and stronger full sized dirt bike handlebar
• Higher strength hardened race headset for longer life and smoother turning

Brakes

• 6 pot calipers front and rear
• Larger 9-inch rotor in front
• Increased reservoir size for more responsive braking under high strain
• High thermal mass rear rotor for improved heat transfer

Instrument Panel and System Upgrades A quick look at the instrument panel tells you everything you need to know on the Zero X. All the important dials and switches are centrally located. The accompanying wiring system is also designed for increased safety and electrical system longevity. The Zero X also comes with a keyed ignition.

• Easy access to gauges and switches with "quick look" clustered instrumentation
• Light for increased awareness and safety
• Key switch with solenoid for added safety, peace of mind, security and ease of use
• Flush mounted rockers switches for speed settings (easy/sport and 30/50mph)
• Integrated battery power connector for ease of use and durability
• Integrated battery fuse for added safety in handling and adverse circumstances

Rear Wheel and Tire The Zero X comes with a beefy wheel setup on the rear for increased traction and durability. This means quicker acceleration, faster hill climbs, and more fun.

• Tall knobbed and grippy full size rear tire measuring 17 x 3.5 inches
• Large lugged high strength rear rim 17 x 2.5 inches
• Thicker 12g spokes
• Custom oversized and reinforced hub

Speed Controller The ZERO X Speed Controller features the ability to customize both the speed and acceleration. With a flip of the switch you can limit the top speed to a motorized bicycle legal limit of 30 miles per hour. Another switch sets the acceleration from beginner-friendly "easy" mode to a wheelie poppin' "sport" mode.

Zero X and the Environment The Zero X includes a Fast Charger that is automatic and will fully recharge your battery in less than 2 hours. The charger plugs into any standard 110 or 220 volt outlet. It is fully sealed, vibration-proof, and waterproof. A Zero motorcycle will produce less than one-tenth the pollution at the power plant than a gas powered motorcycle.

Zero uses a revolutionary lithium-ion technology that is non-toxic. The Zero power pack does not contain toxic metals such as cobalt, nickel, lead, or mercury. They are rated for land-fill disposal in the US, Canada, and Europe are also completely recyclable.

Zero's permanent magnet electric motor delivers over 20 horsepower and requires very little maintenance. The motor uses considerably less steel and copper of other DC motors and delivers a strong power-to-size ratio.

Age Recommendation Zero Motorcycles recommends that riders be of legal driving age (16 years) or older and that they have an M1 license.

This review is from: Zero X Electric Motorcycle (Sports)
I have had the Zero X for several months and I think it is awesome. The electric torque and acceleration are outstanding. Neighbors who see me stop and want to know about the bike. The best part is the reaction from my grown kids. They refused to let me get a Vespa, said it was not cool, but the Zero X passes the kid test. I've had lots of motorcycles, both on and off road, and this is the most fun of them all and the quickest off the line. I'm in Nevada and getting the bike made street legal so I can commute with it. The best part though, is off road on tight trails and over small jumps. The acceleration off jumps is great. I'm very happy with this this bike and enjoy talking with the people at Zero.
