2016 Zero FXS ZF6.5

Whether you’re charging through the inner city supermoto style or indulging in backroad shenanigans, the new Zero FXS is ready to push the limits. Delivering a nearly instantaneous 70 ft-lb of torque, up to 44 hp and weighing less than 300 lbs, the Zero FXS is quick and agile. Suspension and brakes are ideally suited to the rigors of spirited riding, giving the rider greater control. 17-inch wheels and Pirelli Diablo Rosso II tires provide superior grip and corner control…for good reason: the throttle response is simply stunning. The Zero FXS takes supermoto to a new level. Think of it as supermoto on steroids. No ride time is wasted thanks to its maintenance-free powertrain, and each mile covered costs only around a penny in electricity. The Zero FXS features a unique, patented modular power pack system that allows recharging either on or off the bike, making it ideal for the city. With advanced ABS, fully adjustable suspension, dual projector beam headlights, alloy wheels and high performance street tires, it’s ready to hit the supermoto track or turn formerly mundane tasks into thrilling rides.

The Zero FXS features a fully modular power pack system. With slots for two power packs, you can operate the Zero FXS with either one or both slots filled. The modules can be charged either on the motorcycle or elsewhere using optional accessories, giving you the ability to charge without a street-level outlet. The Zero FXS can be purchased with either one module (ZF3.3) or two modules (ZF6.5).

At the heart of the Zero FXS powertrain is a highly efficient and robust motor. The patent-pending Z-Force® interior permanent magnet (IPM) design cools rapidly and offers Zero’s highest thermal capability. This significantly improves performance during hard riding and allows higher sustained top speeds. As with all Z-Force® motors, the IPM design is light, compact and powerful and requires no regular maintenance. When slowing down, the motor generates electricity that is channeled back into the power pack to help extend ride times.

The Zero FXS charging system is integrated into the motorcycle and can be plugged in at any standard outlet. No additional equipment is required for standard charging. This allows you to conveniently charge in your garage, at the office or when you stop at one of your favorite places while enjoying a day out. The Zero FXS power pack modules can be removed from the motorcycle and charged separately using optional accessories. This makes it possible to charge the modules anywhere and thereby eliminates the necessity of a street-level outlet. Charging times can be reduced by up to ~75% by using a scalable off-board charging system.*Requires optional accessories. Please see your Zero Motorcycles dealer.

At the core of the Zero FXS lies a handcrafted aircraft-grade aluminum frame that Zero engineered from the ground up. Its combination of lower weight and higher strength means more responsiveness. In the corners and off the line, this translates into greater acceleration. For added durability, each frame is shot-peened and anodized.
