The resulting combination of light weight and great strength offers enhanced responsiveness. In the corners and off the straights, this translates into better acceleration. For longer life, each chassis is shot-blasted and anodized.
showa suspension
zero Motorcycles worked closely with Showa to develop the suspension systems. These handle small bumps perfectly, control larger impacts predictably and smooth out the action in all conditions. The rigid torsion of the front end offers improved handling, while the hollow front axle reduces unsprung weight. Suspension settings are fully customizable to meet the requirements of most riders.
bosch anti-lock braking system (ABS)
