announces a faster and stronger,
2009 ZERO X electric motorcycle
New Upgraded
2009 Zero X is Now Available to Consumers
SANTA CRUZ, Calif. (October 29, 2008) – Zero Motorcycles, the
leading electric motorcycle manufacturer, today announced the company’s
all-new 2009 Zero X electric motorcycle
is now available for purchase at the Zero Motorcycles website.
Modifications to the 09 model have made the bike faster, stronger and
more durable for the most demanding terrain. Upgraded elements include
the drivetrain, frame, suspension, brakes, wheels and tires. With the
overwhelming success of the sold-out 2008 model, the more powerful 09
Zero X is arriving just in time.
The Zero X electric motorcycle is a high performance, zero-compromise
electric dirt bike that utilizes a proprietary lithium-ion power pack,
and a handmade aircraft grade aluminum frame to deliver surprising
power and explosive acceleration. With a 23 horsepower electric motor
and a total weight of 151 pounds, the Zero X can keep pace with
conventional gas off-road motorcycles - without the related noise and
pollution problems. Built from the ground up using the ultimate
electric motorcycle technology and boasting 50 ft-lbs of torque, twice
that of its competition, this stealthy motorcycle races up hills, flies
over jumps, and splashes through streams. And it can all be done
without disturbing nature or neighbors.
“After years of designing electric motorcycles we’re still innovating
to go faster and further. The 09 Zero X is another evolutionary leap
forward. We’ve made several key changes based on suggestions from both
pro riders and our current customers,” said Neal Saiki, inventor and
founder of Zero Motorcycles. “We are definitely the leader in electric
motorcycle technology and we intend to remain out front.”
The 3rd generation of the Zero X is designed to easily tackle the most
challenging off-road environments. Improvements start with a beefier
drivetrain and work their way out from there. For a complete list of

Exceeding all expectations with the 08 model, Zero is ramping up
production and delivery on the 09 version to accommodate the more than
100 units on its waiting list by Christmas. New orders received by the
end of November will ship by year end.
The 2009
Zero X is priced at $7750, with an introductory price of $7450
through December 31, 2008.
Zero Motorcycles is the next step in motorcycle evolution and
represents the ultimate electric motorcycle technology. Unencumbered by
conventional thinking about how we design, manufacture, and sell high
performance electric motorcycles, we’re on a mission to turn heads and
revolutionize our industry by combining the best aspects of a
traditional motorcycle with today’s most advanced technology. The
result is an electric motorcycle line that’s insanely fast, and
environmentally friendly.
