Zero Motorcycles new electric bikes

Zero Motorcycles unveiled their complete line of 2016 motorcycles. The California-based manufacturer has two new models, a new motor design, faster charging and the highest battery capacity and efficiency to date.

The 2016 announcement began with the introduction of two new motorcycles: the supermoto-inspired Zero FXS for city riders and the Zero DSR for off-road bikers.

“The 2016 line is the culmination of a decade of experience and leverages what we do best: create electric powertrains that deliver a thrilling ride,” said Abe Askenazi, Zero Motorcycles Chief Technology Officer. “The technology is sophisticated, but the way the power is delivered is simple and pure. Ride one, and you’ll understand why we are focused exclusively on electric motorcycles.”

“We set out to transform the two-wheeled experience for transportation and recreation, and a key part of that strategy is to make our motorcycles available to more people,” said Scot Harden, Zero Motorcycles VP of Global Marketing. “Investments in technology, our experience and continued growth allow us to lower the price of two of popular models, the Zero S ZF9.8 streetfighter and Zero DS ZF9.8 dual sport. The thrill of electric is more accessible than ever.”

New models arrive at authorized Zero Motorcycles dealers in November 2015.
