Zero One
This resurrection took place in Soltau.
We’re not talking about the undead, which we know about from various zombie films. Many people believe that reincarnation is a re-birth, where one carries over many things from a previous life. Ideally that means that all the good things are kept & all the not so perfect ones are eliminated, which is what has happened with the Zero One. What started as just a broken speedo, some
peeling chrome and a minor service turned into a full blown customization job.
Ok, the bike wasn’t completely dead when the owner came to us at Lottermann´s Bikes in Soltau, but it was obvious that many things needed to be changed. As the customer was already interested in a complete re-build, the way was set for a radical custom project. There was not one screw that was untouched or a component that remained on the frame. Even the electrical system needed serious attention, as the standard of wiring and routing left a lot to be desired and far from what Lottermann would class as perfect.
Once fully stripped the frame received attention, all welds were smoothed down and a front spoiler was welded on. The 40° Rake and 8" higher steering head form the basis of this chopper and were inherited from it’s first incarnation. Combined with 8 inch longer Ness forks with Ness fork trees, these elements are integrated into the fine design.
A Twin Cam® powerplant sits in the frame & has been fully stripped down for polishing. The block and gearbox have been painted in Imola yellow. Naturally new parts have also been fitted, the motor having a set of Zero Down pipes fitted. The wheels and brakes were intensively addressed, after the frame had the Zero One single swing arm fitted to it, indeed this was it’s debut.
A suitable Zero Cool® rear wheel was manufactured, with impressive 10.5” x 18” dimensions. To free up the view of the wheel centre and provide braking, the Zero Cool® brake system, fitted with a Braking Wave brake disc, was mounted on the left hand side. A special highlight is the "Spinner" on the rear wheel, also in Zero Cool® design, which still rotates even after the bike comes to a stop.
A Zero Cool® wheel is fitted at the front, which in contrast to the 300 rear rubber, has rather more modest 4.5” x 18” dimensions.
The fenders covering the wheels come from the reincarnation department and consist of a Tribal fender at the front and a modified Stiletto rear fender with a welded on tongue and recessed seat mounting. There is an Airtail suspension system at the rear which enables the bike to be lowered or raised some centimetres as required. The CCE forward controls, Zero Cool® handlebars with integrated risers and Nubuck leather saddle with tribal stitching ensure a comfortable riding position, as do the Ness grips and hand controls. After the frame had been drilled to internally route the electrics, the area around the swing arm lengthened and the tank stretched and fitted to it, the airbrushers work could begin. Airworxx Attack and Lottermann worked out a design using a yellow base coat as the starting point. The brave decision to combine candy yellow, with violet, orange and grey, then to cover it with numerous skulls, gave the bike a real personal touch, with unmistakable individuality.
So not only is the bike unique, but following it’s resurrection there aren’t many similarities left with the machine that the customer originally dropped off at Lottermann´s.
