LEAN AND MEAN
Unleash the exhilaration of all-terrain adventure with the Zero FX. Built on our rugged off-road heritage, it's primed for your favorite routes, ready to rocket away when the traffic lights change or the trails call. With its powerful Z-Force® powertrain, resilient suspension, and dual sport capabilities, the Zero FX fearlessly conquers any obstacle in its path. Get ready for an electrifying adventure with unstoppable performance on the Zero FX.
TUNED IN TO YOUR RIDE
Crossing from smooth asphalt to gravel fire roads? All good. Change performance profiles at the press of a button to master any terrain. The Zero FX is pre-programmed with Eco or Sport modes and performance can be fully customized using the Zero Motorcycles NextGen app where you can also see detailed ride stats.
CHARGE SIMPLY
Wake up, ready to ride, with a “full tank” every day — no high-power public charge station required. A simple 110 V household outlet satisfies all the needs of the Zero FX’s 650-watt onboard charger. Every outlet is now a “fueling” station. Crave faster refills? Pick up an accessory Quick Charger to cut charge times by over 60%.
CONTROL THROUGH CONNECTION
By pairing through your smartphone, the FX’s full capabilities are unlocked with the Zero NextGen app. Data driven performance is at the tip of your finger when you can monitor everything about your FX from charge times, speed and regeneration levels, and so much more. Plus, the core architecture of the FX and NextGen app ecosystem are built on the Cypher II operating system so the potential for future feature availability is as wide open as the road ahead.
BATTERY
Zero Motorcycles’ Z-Force® batteries are the most power and energy dense in the EV industry. The Z-Force® 7.2 offers a maximum battery capacity of 7.2 kWh that delivers up to 91 miles of city riding. The battery is designed to last and backed by a five-year, unlimited mile warranty. The Zero FX also features Long Term Storage Mode to optimize the battery’s state of charge and further improve long term battery health when the seasons keep you from riding for months at a time.
ONBOARD CHARGER
The Zero FX’s discreetly accessible 650 W onboard charger can be plugged into any household outlet. When you can refuel your FX from anywhere you can charge your cellphone, charge options per square mile are greater than the density of gas stations anywhere in the world. For when you need even faster recharges, charge times can be slashed by using optional Quick Chargers.
MOTOR
The Zero FX powerplant produces up to 78 ft-lb of torque. The air-cooled Interior Permanent Magnet (IPM) motor delivers impressive performance and fierce acceleration, which works in conjunction with regenerative braking to channel energy back into the battery. No heavy, complicated or expensive liquid cooling. No routine maintenance. No fuss. This is the industry’s most efficient, powerful, and compact motor.
FRAME
The Zero FX’s robust aircraft-grade aluminum frame has been refined for over ten years. A descendant of Zero’s early motocross-style bikes, the frame’s optimized strength-to-weight ratio is the perfect delivery mechanism for the Z-Force® powertrain’s adrenaline pumping acceleration.
BRAKES
The Bosch anti-lock brake system (ABS) delivers confident braking. Tested for just about any situation you can imagine, the system optimizes deceleration under hard braking. The brakes are equipped with adjustable levers for improved ergonomics. And for those who would like, the ABS can be switched on or off at the rider’s discretion.
DASH
The Zero FX comes equipped with a full-color and optically bonded 5” TFT dash. The FX’s dash projects the specs you need: speed, state of charge, power output, selected riding profile, projected recharge time. Sync with your smartphone to turn it into a secondary customizable dash or view detailed ride stats.
SUSPENSION
Custom-tuned by Showa specifically for the power and weight of the Zero FX, this suspension is perfect for anything you find in your path. The FX’s rugged 41mm inverted cartridge front forks and 40mm rear shock are enough to handle jagged ruts and rock-strewn trails, while offering 8.6” of front travel and 8.94” of play at the rear.
WHEELS & TIRES
Rocking through the gnarly bits on a large 21-inch front wheel and capable 18-inch wheel in the back means this mullet is all party, all the time. Wrapped in high-performance Pirelli Scorpion MT-90 rubber, the Zero FX adeptly traverses dirt, rocks, or asphalt.
BELT DRIVE
Strip away clutches, gears, shifting, chains and all their weighty complexities. Seamlessly accelerate with pure efficiency as energy quietly transforms into propulsion. The Zero FX is direct drive, and its state-of-the-art motor connects directly to the rear wheel using a carbon fiber belt from Gates Carbon.
FACE
The Zero FX’s distinctive face features twin projector beam headlamps and an integrated fly screen, leading the way with a visual style matched to the bike’s sharp attitude.
