A Cooler, More Colorful Zero Motorcycles Lineup For 2010
- plugbike.com
-
Zero rolled out their 2010 lineup of electric motorcycles. Most noticeable are the bold new graphics on all four models. The blue / black and red / black options are a big improvement on the white and black of 2009 although the Stormtrooper look is still an option. :TAKEAPIC: Spoiler: click to toggle [cleft=red][/cleft] Posted Image The Zero S and DS now have the Z-Force Air Induction system added to the DC motor to keep it running cool and improving power. Some issues with the 2009 models have been addresses by adding higher mirrors to improve reward visibility and a Corbin seat that is sure to keep the cheeks happy. Posted Image
The X and MX also get the bold new graphics treatment for 2010. In addition the front number plate on the dirt models is now flat and more conventionally shaped than last years. The front fender on the MX is also larger to keep flying mud under control and the bars are higher improving ergonomics. source and more into & pics plugbike.com

- Zero Motorcycles
-
If you have any doubts that electric motorcycles have arrived, believe it. They have arrived. Posted Image As one proof of that, Zero Motorcycles today unveiled its new line-up for 2010, with four models aimed for the street (Zero S), dual-sport (Zero DS), motocross (Zero MX), and trails (Zero X).
According to the company, the street-legal models have performance enhancements that allow for higher top speeds and greater acceleration, while the power pack technology is improved on all models.
The performance enhancements produce more horsepower from lighter and more compact motors, and new throttle technology gives riders very precise control over acceleration. For the first time, all models offer color and graphics choices. Corbin-designed seats for more comfort and a performance-oriented ride are another option on the S and DS.
Here are some particulars about the different models. :HHHEREITIS: Spoiler: click to toggle [cleft=blue][/cleft] Zero S The Zero S weighs in at 270 pounds and has a range of 50 miles. Top speed is "GPS verified" at 67 mph. Says the company, "The Zero S is designed for optimal performance off the line, in sharp turns and while navigating obstacles. Instant acceleration and lightweight design enable the Zero S to take on any city street, hill or obstacle, combining exhilaration with efficiency."
This model is priced at $8,995.
Zero DS Suspension and ruggedness are the two characteristics of the Zero DS that distinguish it from the Zero S. "The Zero DS is a fully electric motorcycle that can handle any surface you can throw at it. Navigating obstacles and maintaining control is assured using a specially developed suspension system and a rugged wheel set. During technical maneuvers an optimized direct drive gear system delivers astonishing responsiveness with the twist of your wrist."
The DS is also priced at $8,995.
Zero MX Pushing beyond the DS in suspension, the Zero MX is designed for bigger jumps and smooth landings. The power pack is claimed to be good for two hours of riding, and can be swapped out easily with spares.
The MX is priced at $8,295.
Zero X The lightest of the Zero models at 151 pounds, the Zero X boasts 50 foot-pounds of torque and is built for quick handling and maneuverability. This model also allows for swapping out the power pack. One aspect the company is pitching is that its near-silent operation will allow for use in areas where dirt-bike noise has limited or eliminated riding opportunities.
The Zero X is priced at $7,495.
All models can be purchased online now and will begin shipping at the end of March. Each comes with a 2-year limited warranty. The Zero S and DS models are eligible for a 10 percent federal tax credit and tax rebate. Some states offer additional incentives. Demo rides are available and you can find a dealer close to you at http://www.zeromotorcycles.com/locator/.
