Established in 1992 Okazaki City, Japan, Zero Engineering is one of the foremost names in the custom motorcycle industry. Known throughout the world for the uncompromising style, beauty, and attention details, the master mechanics and fabricators create a very limited quantity of custom motorcycles each year.
The "Zero Style" is the creation of famed bike builder Shinya Kimura, and it includes the use of low-positioned gooseneck frames to emphasizing the engine. This choice is subtly artistic, representing the change from the older, vintage styling to the more modern.
Each part was produced one-off with copper and brass to fit organically into the overall design. This choice is appealing to Japanese sensibilities and lifestyle, but the machine is based on S&S V-Twin engines ensure the strength of its long history of both quality and reliability.
Combining form and function with minimal frills, gadgets and chrome, each bike is meticulously built by hand taking several months to complete. The “ZERO STYLE” has become synonymous with vintage, old school style featuring gooseneck rigid frames and springer front forks. This style has often been imitated but seldom duplicated successfully.
ZERO Engineering and PLOT Inc, one of the largest names in the motorcycle industry in Japan, teamed up to start a production version of the Zero style in 2002. In business since 1981, PLOT Inc has established itself as a leader in the manufacture and distribution of aftermarket motorcycle parts. In an attempt to allow more enthusiasts the opportunity to own their own “ZERO” choppers, Zero Engineering and PLOT Inc collaborated to develop a production version of Zero’s award winning motorcycles.
