Zero Motorcycles Unveils 2010 Bikes in Daytona

Electric bike manufacturer Zero Motorcycles revealed its highly-anticipated 2010 product line of electric motorcycles during this year’s Daytona Bike Week. The entire line of models will be available for demo rides and viewing at the booth and demo course at the Cycle World International Motorcycle Show inside the Ocean Center.

The 2010 Zero model line upgrades includes the Z-Force Air Induction System on the S and DS models, a platform that allows the bikes to produce more horsepower from lighter and more compact motors by increasing the airflow through the heart of the motor.

Zero is also introducing a new throttle technology that modulates the increased power to provide riders with exacting control over the acceleration. All 2010 motorcycles are powered using Z-Force power pack technology for a longer power pack life, more power, greater acceleration off the line and superior handling.

In addition, consumers will have the chance to choose between various color graphic packages, allowing for personalized styling. New seat configurations are also an option for the 2010 Zero S and DS.

Specially designed by Corbin, the new seats provide a more comfortable ride, while those interested in reducing the stand over height of the motorcycle can now select a Corbin low seat option.

Moreover, the Zero S and DS models are eligible for a 10 percent federal tax credit and tax rebate.

"Daytona Bike Week is the ideal location to showcase how Zero Motorcycles is quickly integrating itself into the mainstream motorcycle community,"
said Gene Banman, CEO of Zero Motorcycles, in a release.

"With the sheer number of people attending the event, Zero Motorcycles will be able to reach consumers that have never before experienced electric motorcycles,"
Banman further added, "Traditional motorcycle enthusiasts will get to see for themselves that a high performance and technologically-advanced motorcycle can exist without gas."
