Yamaha is planning to launch a new variant of FZ but not for common people. This time Yamaha is preparing a model for our very own police force.

Although this plan is in its initial stages and nothing has been finalized, this exciting model is in the pipeline. The technical specs of the bike would remain the same but there would be some changes made to the bike considering the needs of the police force.

As can be seen in the image the bike would be equipped with red and blue beacons and might have some gadgets to fit the needs of the police.

Although the finished product might have been frozen in as soon as the planning phase is complete, Yamaha would be taking constant inputs from the police in case they find something not suitable.

This is really a great news.
In delhi, you can spot the cops on white pulsars which look very cool.
Earlier we had Yellow Enfield Bullets.

I am disappointed. Why yamaha bikes ? Pulsars were great.
First of all there are hardly some cops who ride well.
And moreover to meet the bikes needs these people will just go challaning around.[frustration]

I wonder why these bikes have been specially designed (read:made ugly) for the police.
In Punjab, the police uses stock Bajaj Pulsar 180 Black

Good for India to move in the right direction. Our COPS need that extra muscle bikes to chase people and this is a real good move. In other countries super cops drive lambo's & porsche's atleast in India they are starting with Yamaha.

Here in Kerala ,I see only Royal Enfield "decorated" Police Motorcycles. :)
@Topic: My Feeling is ,FZ-series Bikes are Expensive for the Money You Buy it For.Better a Modified Pulsar220 or RTR180.Pricewise and Maintance wise these Bikes are Not World Apart from Yamaha.
PS:I have nothing against Yamaha.Me ,A RD/RX fan ;)

OT: Are you talking about this?It looks really wierd!

Honestly, who is the world thought about painting the bike in those cheetah costume. Sounds extremely dumb and resource wasting.

Cheers,

As if the cops are going to chase anyone! We need good cop cars quite frankly! Our cops drive around in Boleros and the ever so faithful Gypsy!
We've got this strangely coloured (Blue Camouflage) Boleros patrolling the city or taking the cops shopping.[lol!]

The FZ is a good move. It'll be able to catch up but not take down the suspect!
