2013 Zero Police/Security bikes
Electric motorcycle manufacturer Zero has launched its 2013 range of law enforcement bikes.
Both available models - the Zero S Police/Security and Zero DS Police/Security - come with LED emergency lighting, a siren, battery and frame protection bars, a public address system with microphone and a choice of black or white paint finishes.
Users will also be able to specify various options. These include panniers, a selection of top boxes, a rear-mounted telescoping pole light, a windscreen, aluminium hand guards and the CHAdeMO system that recharges the battery pack to 95 percent in around an hour.

With the higher-capacity ZF11.4 lithium-ion battery fitted, the Zero S-based version has a range of 132 miles (212 kilometres) in the city or 83 miles (134 kilometres) when cruising at 55 mph (88 km/h). For the dual-sport DS, those figures reduce slightly to 121 miles (195 kilometres) and 74 miles (119 kilometres) respectively.
Power comes from the latest Z-Force 75-7 brushless motor that produces 54 bhp (40 kW / 55 PS) and 92 Nm (68 lb/ft) of torque. That’s enough to take the bikes up to 95 mph (153 km/h), although Zero quotes a ‘sustained’ top speed of 80 mph (129 km/h).

Commenting on the new arrivals, John Lloyd, Vice President of Global Sales for Zero Motorcycles, said: “After seeing the success the 2012 model had in the field, we decided to expand our 2013 police and security offerings.
“To have the support of so many different law enforcement agencies and security organizations is an incredible honour. As we stated last year, police officers put their lives on the line every day to protect and serve, so it’s imperative that we give them all the tools necessary to allow them to be successful. The 2013 Police and Security line-up does that exceptionally well.”
