I tell you what, there's something very hypnotic and relaxing about that sound after a while. I think the increased ambient noise brings something too.

Man this thing sounds like something from the year 2180

I can feel the acceleration even on my phone.

"I believe in reducing time exposed to danger. ." *Threads like a goddamn maniac*

Zero FXS given ^^

I love that little warbly sound when it accelerates, sounds soo futuristic

12:35 "what's the brand?" About 50 miles byyeeeee

I don’t know how people can stand to commute in cars in that traffic.

4:44 - 5:15 It is actually more entertaining to watch a video where RJ is making engine sounds and whistling. xD

I commute 42 miles a day in & out of London 22 days a month. Commuting puts a heavy strain on my bike. I'm fed up with constantly servicing my chain, oil changes & services every 4 months, 1 clutch change and lastly the latest fuel price hikes. Even still I'd never get on public transport for love the freedom and to be disease free. This bike is exactly what I'm looking for. Just booked a demo. Thanks RJ.

Who knew RJ whistled whilst riding Never was able to hear that with his bikes 4:44 - 5:24

One gear and lots of torque . No combustion engine can beat an electric in acceleration and through the city acceleration is what counts . Great video RJ .

Like a Bat Out of Hell ;)

4:43 Got me haha. Actually looked for another bike in your side mirror

These electric motorcycles are like ASMR in videos. Sleep inducing sound.

10:35 "No petrol , AHAHAH " and just zips off while laughing is my fav part xd

My commute currently is from Reading to London, I think as soon as I get the chance to live a bit closer I will DEFINITELY be getting one of these. Bikers to save the planet :-)

I had the chance to work in London for 5 weeks around 2010. Your video reminds me how this city is so fantastic. And what a nice ride, a real treat. Thanks for sharing.

It's so nice to see RJ ride places we don't see often ! loved it !!

7.14 Idiot on a scooter....but what a great bike RJ. Had a Tesla over a weekend and was staggered by the instant power of that. Electric vehicles are the future, just need prices to drop.

Was wondering if the lack of sound would make you bored and you'd start making your own. I laughed out loud with the vrooms and the whistling. Nice to see a good sense of humor. Keep these excellent videos coming sir.

The way he dials in the power. Stunning control over bike

I agree with that! I test rode one - absolutely amazing, the torque, nipping through traffic has never been as good as this - it's the best. 100%!!!

The sound it makes reminds me of the Jetsons.

The thing I missed most on the FXS was the interaction with people from revving to comunicate with other bikes or nice cars. But People did ask is that electric though. My other gripe was range since I do all highway. But its a great city bike if you dont get on the highway at all. Or if you have a consistent 9-5 and can charge at work. But even then you wont be able to ride out with your buddies after work and ride for 5 hours. All ya can really do it ride back home because it will take too long to charge back up. I love the bike but they need to get the batteries to be lighter, charge faster, last longer, and lastly come down on price.

I've been eyeing that bike for some time now, my 25 years old XT 600E needs a replacement. I've watched some of your videos before and know that you have quite some experience with bikes in the city, so this video pretty much seals the deal for me. Thanks!

Well played. I enjoyed that nearly as much as you did. Sidenote-- you have near flawless commuting skills.

Still my favorite zero so far. And i have tested them all : O

Nice shot of an old cortina. Saw one with a 302 v8 back in the 80s and it went like hell.

It's so good i just watched a 20m motovlog with 0 petrol engine sound and it felt amazing !! Great Bike, Great Video

This is so satisfying to watch. And that sound, so nice.

The lack of noise & cost to purchase is my real reservation. As a technology & future of the "motorcycle" it's a no brainer. Electric is the key.

If it's good for RJ it's THE FUTURE for all of us ⛽❌. 🔌✔ More manufacturers,More competition👍

You're livin in the future man!! What a ride, wow.

This is one of the best video tours of London I've seen! please consider doing the same type of videos around famous sights.

Man, is those sound comes from the future? What a future-evil-electric sound 😈😈😈

love this bike!

Brilliant! A pleasure to watch your video as usual but this one is especially intriguing to me. Have been wondering just what the Zero FXS is all about and now I certainly know. Thanks

What a tidy little Bike! Great to see more Electric Bikes!

Hahaa! You made your own motor sound XD

The lack of typical motorcycle sound is pretty haunting to me

Excellent review and demo RJ, this really is EVolution in action. I made my own 1kW ebike and love riding it so much it's like I never want to arrive. Simply the best way of getting around a city - clean, green and mean and the fuel is effectively free, especially when you can charge it from home with solar panels.

Fantastic! Love the entire concept of these bikes. If I could own two bikes....one for longer trips and this in town.... oh baby!

It needs a speaker with sounds from the Nuda.

The acceleration looks good . Don't be in such a hurry ! It's better to be late than to not reach at all.

Loving the coverage on these electrics!

Tested the FXE yesterday in Paris. It was the first ride on an electric bike and I was blown away. Best and fastest commuter bike ever! It was hard getting on my new Triumph after!

I actually like how that bike sounds . So futuristic .. ,🤖

People not keen on the road Rj:*Whistles* Horn: Am i a joke to you.!! lol

Love that sound this bike makes!

thhis acceleration sound is such a satisfaction ... eargasm i love ebikes...

W A N T !

Future is so damn close !!

Love your vids! These bikes are the future I'm certain of it!

I got my full Akra System installed the other day on my bike. Goes from a 4, 2,1 with a carbon fibre tip and full titanium. Not insanely loud as im a cb650 so naked and a honda, known to be quite but it adds that extra bit of growl to it and personally the best part is I can actually hear an exhaust note instead of just my engine revving. Also 100% makes the bike, carbon tip matches the bits of carbon trim the bike has near the fuel tank. Now just to get some better levers, mirrors and a windshield for travel.

It sounds like a Tram.

That instant torque must be amazing for passing cars. Still too expensive for me though. I hope the market stabilizes soon and the overpricing stops.

If you work PR for Zero your going to be pretty happy about now. Getting an unreserved thumbs up from RJ is a massive thing.

Thank you. I am convinced and hope my wife will be too. I hope to get one soon.

Check for insurance quotes first when I tried last year I got a big fat zero from them All good things tho

Whistling from inside a closed helmet to try to warn peds. Honestly, why don't the manufacturers of bikes put some sort of electrically-powered audible warning device where you just press a button, and it makes a loud noise to let people know you are there? Seems like a real oversight to me. Yes, I am being sarcastic.

It pulls really well I'm impressed well done rj.

Only Rj can make an electric bike sound so awesome. Listen to it in good quality headphones. Wish they actually sounded like that out loud- people would go nuts!!!

did RJ whistle while riding??

so sorry, but those audi bangs tho !!!

I like it, if RJ were to ride it and be in all of his videos I wouldn't mind. I think if this is the replacement for what we currently have, it would be ok.

My first bike in the moto driving school. Loved it!

This filtering was amazing. I can't decide if it's amazing skill or utterly wreckless. Whipping through those gaps and around vehicles was fun to watch. Overtaking slow traffic on a single lane with oncoming traffic was a bit sketchy. But at no point did I see him in any danger. Unlike that scooter in the cycle lane cutting up that audi. My only concern is that none of these drivers heard you coming.

The sound isn't too far off from the Ghost from Halo.

That sound is dope. That instant torque is amazing.

Seems like a great bike. I want one! Nice video.

Good commuter bike but you will need a second motorcycle for those weekend rides into the country side.

Is it wrong that I like the fact it sounds like a milk float 😂

The sound is also very awesome

I.., I just love your vids keep going you’re amazing!!!

This bike seems great for someone like RJ who rides in a big congested city, but I don't think it'd work for me. I live 15 miles from the nearest town, so I'd be constantly worried about range while out and about for the day. They look fun as all hell with the instant torque, but I just couldn't live with one until the range is higher.

All bike seats should be flat, just like they used to be

Wow incredible opinion, looking forward to test ride one in Milan! Ciao!

Well this clip make me wanna get one.Great vid!

Since this is an electric bike and has no engine displacement, it therefor doesn’t have a CC, which means it should be available to ride on all bike licenses

While you were having that tremendous amount of fun, has it ever crossed your mind that you were doing it without contributing to the pollution levels in London, RJ? ; ) After watching this video, all your other bikes look sooooooooooo slow! XD

Looks and pulls like the Nuda 9, its so quiet would love to have one. I presently have a 2016 Z1 and a 2017 Super Duke R, this would be a pleasure to drive. Thanks for the ride, be safe, take care, greetings from the Philippines

I love the idea I just feel the noise is an important part of commuting where they can hear you before see you!!

10:36 "No petrol 🤣🤣🤣

10:14 Left mirror... :) lol

Thanks for the review..im seriously considering getting one.

Actually one of the most informative electric bike vids. London man, sheesh.

This sounds like something that would be programmed to kill humans I love it

Is there an akrapovic for this? The sound is not RJ like

WOW - awesome review RJ

Awesome torque. Nothing can beat electric for power and economy excellent footage.Thank you.

Man.. This bike needs an Akrapovic exhaust!

$20k cheaper than an overpriced harley! 👍🏻

Looks really good. Thanks a lot for the video.

It sounds so clean. I want that

I ride, so this is not a cager rant. That 's pretty risky threading. I can understand the argument for lane-splitting, when done with care, but this guy is a maniac. Cross lane jogging at stops, long forays in to oncoming lanes....with nary a beep of alert. Does Zero really want their name on this?

I bet in some situations you really had to hold yourself back from trying to rev it to make yourself heard. Thats the thing I dont like most about e-bikes. You have to rely on people just seeing you.

That was a really interesting video. Looks like it has plenty of poke.

Reminds me of the Underground... Nice bike and review RJ.🙂👍🏻
