2018 Zero Motorcycles S ZF13.0 + Power Tank

Features

• PURE PERFORMANCE: Pure stealth. Propelled by the industry’s most advanced tech, the Z-Force® powertrain slingshots you forward. No shifting. All torque. Just smooth acceleration at the twist of a throttle. The Zero S strips away the noise, fumes and vibration so all you feel is the uninterrupted flow of the ride. Looking for the highest torque and fastest accelerating street bike in the Zero lineup? Step up to the asphalt ripping the Zero SR.
• CHARGING. MEET HOUSEHOLD OUTLET: No special charging equipment required. Your standard household outlets just became “fueling” stations that deliver daily rides at a fraction of the cost of gasoline. Plug in at night and start every day with a full “tank.”
• RIDE MORE. MAINTAIN LESS: Goodbye costly powertrain maintenance and stale waiting room donuts. Sophisticated. Simple. The Z-Force® powertrain eliminates the greasy mess of fossil burners. No oil, spark plugs, clutches, filters, chain adjustments or expensive tune-ups. Instead, a carbon fiber belt directly connects the rear wheel to a motor that uses a single moving part to deliver torque at levels beyond conventional superbikes. Always advancing. Code for the Z-Force® powertrain is constantly refined to deliver improved performance. The Zero App easily delivers the upgrades using your mobile device.
• LONGEST RANGE ELECTRIC MOTORCYCLE: The Zero S is our farthest traveling model (and the longest-range production electric motorcycle on earth). At its core is the highest power and energy density battery in the EV industry. The higher the battery capacity, the more range. Select the battery size that works for you. Ride over 200 miles city / 100 miles highway using the highest capacity ZF14.4 battery coupled with the Power Tank accessory (adds an additional 3.6 kWh). Or, shed weight and gain storage space with the ZF7.2.
• BATTERY: Zero Motorcycles' Z-Force® battery is the most power and energy dense in the EV industry. The Zero S battery is available in three sizes: ZF7.2, ZF13.0, ZF14.4 (Zero SR only). The battery is designed to last and backed by a five-year, unlimited mileage warranty.
• MOTOR: The impressive Z-Force® motor produces smooth power and up to 116 ft. lb. with a design so efficient it only requires passive air-cooling. Roll on the throttle for massive acceleration. Roll of the throttle to progressively channel energy back into the battery. No heavy, complicated or expensive liquid cooling. No fuss. No routine maintenance. This is the industry's most efficient, powerful, and compact brushless motor.
• DASH: Minimalist. Cool blue LDC. The Zero 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: Zero collaborated with Showa to develop smooth suspension with superior small bump compliance and predictable control of bigger impacts. The entire suspension system can be fully and easily adjusted to glide over any city street or rip down your favorite twisty roads.
• WHEELS AND TIRES: Corner with confidence. Pirelli Diablo Rosso II tires are mounted on stylish alloy wheels to form a system that delivers maximum grip. A hollow front axle shaves unsprung weight to improve handling.
• BRAKES: The Bosch anti-lock brake system (ABS) delivers confident braking. Tested for just about any situation you can imagine, the system optimizes deceleration when you hit your brakes hard. Braking is actuated via levers that can be adjusted for improved ergonomics. ABS can be switched on or off by the rider.
• DIRECT DRIVE: Strip away clutches, gears, shifting, chains and all their weighty complexities. Seamlessly rocket to speeds in excess of 100 mph with pure efficiency as energy quietly transforms into propulsion. The Zero S is direct drive. Its state-of-the-art motor connects directly to the rear wheel using a carbon fiber belt.
• STANDARD CHARGE PORT: Simple. Subtle. The standard charge port is discrete. A lightweight cable easily connects the onboard charger to any standard household outlet. No additional charging equipment required.
• THE TANK: No motorcycle "tank" on earth is more versatile. The standard Zero S tank is equipped with spacious lockable storage. Interested in faster charging or greater range? Swap the standard tank for either the Charge Tank or the Power Tank accessory.
• GOVERNMENT INCENTIVES: There are many reasons to ride a Zero: no gasoline, penny-per-mile “fuel” costs, ultra-low maintenance and a sensation that’s a magic carpet. Select states, regions and cities add incentives to that list. While not all have discounts or rebates, many are exploring the idea. Zero works with organizations around the world to gain exposure for electric motorcycles and to ensure that they are incorporated into key policy decisions.
