In almost every
way, an electric motorcycle is well suited for military applications. They are
quiet, have low heat profiles, emit no exhaust, are simple to operate and
incredibly fast. With this in mind Zero Motorcycles developed a military program
that is specifically designed to meet the needs of the military applications.
Working alongside interested military personnel, Zero Motorcycles is able to
deliver a motorcycle that includes the options and accessories required for a
successful deployment and mission.
Using Zero
Motorcycles’ industry-leading Z-Force® powertrain the Zero MMX features quick
swappable power packs, direct drive gearing and an air cooled motor. With no
transmission, powertrain fluids or gas, the Zero MMX is also easy to transport
and maintain.
The Zero MMX is
designed and built to meet the needs of a wide variety of military applications.
It can be customized with a selection of accessories to tailor the motorcycle
for a specific type of usage and duty cycle.
No exhaust and
exceptionally stealthy, the Zero MMX holds unique tactical advantages over
traditional internal combustion alternatives. The 100% electric powertrain
offers personnel the ability to rapidly move over technical terrain while making
virtually no noise and emitting no smell. Perhaps the most covert form of
two-wheeled transportation, the motorcycle is completely silent when stopped and
can accelerate instantly from 0 rpm.

The 2015 Zero MMX
is based upon Zero’s award winning off-road motorcycle technology and features
many of the same upgrades as the Zero FX.
As with all new
2015 Zero motorcycles, the MMX is fully equipped with Showa suspension.
Close
collaboration between Showa and Zero engineers created a system that provides
excellent small bump compliance, predictable control of bigger impacts, and
exceptionally smooth action in all conditions. Torsional rigidity of the front
end was increased for improved handling, and a hollow front axle reduced
unsprung weight. Suspension settings are customizable to meet the demands of a
wide variety of riders.
Improved braking
systems, enhanced weatherproofing, Pirelli DOT-approved tires, and a new
accessory rear rack are further refinements that elevate the performance of the
MMX while increasing reliability and versatility.
