Aussie Police FJR'S

[Thug]

Here are a couple of pics sent to me by a mate of mine who ride's with the NSW POLICE TOG (or Toggies) Transport Operations Group) at least that was their name a few years back.

Bikes being prept

As you can see some bits and pieces to go in and on it yet (See floor near rear tyre)

I'll keep you updated....

I need that rear seat conversion!! dats cool!

 

[Thug]

Yeah it looks very cool indeed Maybe try and get me hands on one of them?

 

[FJRBluesman]

Nice shots. Cool bikes.

Looks like they farkled the side fairings for heat around the leg / boot area.

Since your the resident Aussie its your responsibility to get the info on that case Thug! Damn it!

I like the crash bars. They gotta be better than sliders. And the siren would be cool too.

 

[FJstaR]

Noticed the large feet fairings, windshield and crash bars. Not impressed with the seat conversion /trunk

and giant mirrors...

Those used to be available through Yamaha accessories. They seem to be gone from the list, though.

Isn't that the Corbin Smuggler?

 

[brazos parker]

Never thought I'd like a white FJR...but, I likee that one!

Nice crash bars too...probably work better than my Moko's in a get-off.

 

[Wicked Webby]

Don't think thats the Corbin.. Much larger.. Pretty cool setup!

 

[Janet]

I agree on the crash bars. I would just like to have the rear set to protect the bags. Very cool. We need someone Down Under to scope it out for us.

Thug, if you could get info on the crash bars - that would be huge!!

Thanks !!

It looks like a plate attaches using the cap screw that's under the adjustable side vent.

The bar attaches to that plate and other attach point is the usual GenII slider attach point.

That would be a lot stronger than a slider and a highway pegs would be an easy add-on.

Compare those to the cop bikes in the Netherlands. Dale Franks' link: Various police agencies

G'Day Thug, Excellent work, bringing us information on the Aussie Police FJR's. Like the others, I am interested to find out the availability of the rear seat conversion and the crashbars. Perhaps a Group Buy if they're available to the civilian population?

Off Topic: Thug, is there a Bike Rental Agency in Melbourne, or elsewhere in Victoria State, that you could recommend to me?

I finally got to go to exploring in New Zealand for two weeks this March, but I have not yet had the chance to see beautiful OZ!

I want to celebrate my 62nd birthday in 2010 by motoring around Australia. Any suggestions for Sydney, Darwin or Perth? DS

You are aware that they drive on the wrong side of the road down there? :blink:

Do they rent bikes with right hand drive?

Good Morning Hal, Thanks for the advice. I drove Kiwiland just fine ten weeks ago and Gibraltar in 2006. No worries mate!
