Zero FX Stealth Fighter Features and Benefits

The Zero FX boasts more torque and acceleration than any other in the history of Zero Motorcycles. It is the ultimate ‘do anything’ and ‘ride anywhere’ urban motorcycle. At 70 ft-lbs, 44 hp and a low weight of only 275 lbs the Zero FX launches off the line and pulls hard at any RPM.

Capable of molding to any rider’s desires, the performance characteristics of the Zero FX can be tailored to the rider’s specifications via Bluetooth and a compatible mobile device. Built off of the full-sized championship-winning Zero MX platform, it leverages the same off-road suspension to allow thrill-seeking riders to explore both on and off-road terrain. Visually distinct, the Zero FX is available strictly in all black with a subtle and sophisticated graphics package.

The Zero FX features the world’s first truly modular power pack system and is available in two configurations: ZF2.8 (one module), ZF5.7 (two modules). The lockable modules can be individually added or removed, regardless of state of charge, in less than a minute. As with the rest of the 2013 lineup, the Zero FX can be charged to 95% at CHAdeMO charging stations in an hour or less using an optional accessory. Making ownership easy, the sealed Z-Force™ motor, belt drive and highly efficient power pack virtually eliminates all routine powertrain maintenance.
