THE BIKE OF TOMORROW. AVAILABLE TODAY.

Advanced design inspired by the concept build by huge design in san francisco. Designed to advance the way we think of transportation. Affordable luxury has never offered such an uncompromising combination of performance and style. 

DESIGN

Zero partners with Bill Webb in 2018 on a Custom build of the Zero FXS. Ultimately we wanted to utilize the build to inspire elements of future Zero motorcycles. Many concept builds push the envelope so far it doesn’t translate to the reality of riding and functionality. Bill Webb took a different approach. He set out to create something that pushed the boundary but relatable and something that could be come a reality. We were not surprised when the Motorcycle industry loved the bike. This enthusiasm went well beyond the our industry.

TECHNOLOGY

Built on the foundation of the revolutionary Zero ZF 75-5 powertrain and Cypher II operating system, the road before the FXE is always bright thanks to new LED head and tail lights as well as a full color and bonded TFT dash to literally outshine motorcycles well above its station. Brains and brawn.

PERFORMANCE PROFILE

Transform performance profiles with the press of a button to perfectly conquer city streets or your local supermoto track. The Zero FXE is pre-programmed with Eco or Sport modes. Connect using your mobile device to customize performance or get stats on your ride.

EXPERIENCE

The FXE is lighter than any motorcycle with this much power, has no gears and clutch, and an upright riding position making it the most user-friendly vehicle on the road. This bike truly becomes a seamless extension of the rider. Gliding effortlessly through traffic has never been so fun. The FXE is the motorcycle rides as smooth as it looks.

FRAME

The Zero FXE’s precision-built aircraft-grade aluminum frame is an exercise in efficiency. When fully built the minimalist Zero FXE tips the scales at 298 pounds.

DASH

Full-color and bonded 5” TFT dash. The Zero FXE 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.

MOTOR

The Zero FXE 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.

SUSPENSION

The Zero FXE’s Showa suspension offers outstanding articulation and full adjustability. With nearly 9 inches of rear travel, the Zero FXE offers superior damping to smooth out the road’s imperfections.

WHEELS AND TIRES

The Zero FXE’s responsive handling matches its lean, mean looks. Pirelli Diablo Rosso II tires are mounted on stylish cast 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 under hard braking. 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 accelerate with pure efficiency as energy quietly transforms into propulsion. The Zero FXE is direct drive. Its state-of-the-art motor connects directly to the rear wheel using a carbon fiber belt.

ONBOARD CHARGER

The Zero FXE’s discreetly accessible 650 W onboard charger can be plugged into any household outlet. Charge times can be slashed by using optional Quick Chargers.
