Police Bike in FiveM: spawn code, top speed and engine sound

The Police Bike spawns with policeb. Below: its handling numbers explained and ranked against the Emergency class, ready Lua spawn code, the three forms of its hash, how to use its sound on an add-on car, and its mod kit, colour and light ids.

Read from the game files of GTA V Legacy build 1.0.3889.0 on November 8, 2026. It already exists in game build 3258, the build many FiveM servers enforce. By the FiveMRides team.

How the Police Bike drives, in numbers

• Rear-wheel drive: fDriveBiasFront is 0.0, so all of the drive force goes to the rear wheels. It has 4 forward gears.
• Top-gear limit: about 162 km/h (101 mph), from fInitialDriveMaxFlatVel 135 x 1.2. 26 of the 35 Emergency vehicles in the game files have a higher limit; the class median is 172 km/h.
• Drive force per tonne: 1.08 (fInitialDriveForce 0.27 on 250 kg). That is 656% more than the Emergency median of 0.143; it is a handling index for how hard it pulls for its weight, not horsepower.
• Brakes: fBrakeForce 1.1 with 65% of the braking on the front axle (class median 0.8).
• Grip: peak traction 1.9 and sliding traction 1.8 (fTractionCurveMax / Min). The gap of 0.1 is how much grip it loses once the tyres slide; 47% of the grip sits on the front axle.
• Weight: 250 kg, 87% lighter than the Emergency median of 1,860 kg.

Against all 35 Emergency vehicles in the game files

The bar runs from the lowest to the highest value in the class, the filled part ends at the Police Bike, the light tick is the class median. Hover a row for the numbers. Stock values without upgrades.

Spawn the Police Bike in FiveM

Client script (spawns it where the player stands and seats them in it):

local model = `policeb` -- 0xFDEFAEC3
RequestModel(model)
while not HasModelLoaded(model) do Wait(0) end
local ped = PlayerPedId()
local pos = GetEntityCoords(ped)
local veh = CreateVehicle(model, pos.x, pos.y, pos.z, GetEntityHeading(ped), true, false)
SetPedIntoVehicle(ped, veh, -1)
SetModelAsNoLongerNeeded(model)

Server script (OneSync, the server owns the entity; admin only through the ACE restriction):

RegisterCommand('spawnpoliceb', function(source)
    local ped = GetPlayerPed(source)
    local pos = GetEntityCoords(ped)
    local veh = CreateVehicleServerSetter(`policeb`, 'bike', pos.x, pos.y, pos.z, GetEntityHeading(ped))
    while not DoesEntityExist(veh) do Wait(0) end
    SetPedIntoVehicle(ped, veh, -1)
end, true)

• vMenu: Vehicle Spawner, then Spawn Vehicle By Model Name, type policeb.
• txAdmin: in-game menu, Spawn Vehicle, type policeb.
• QBCore / ESX: /car policeb for admins.
• The second argument of CreateVehicleServerSetter is the vehicle type; for the Police Bike it is bike. A wrong type makes the server entity fail.

An add-on car that does not appear is a different problem (stream folder, data_file lines, model name): see FiveM car not spawning. All vanilla codes in one table: FiveM spawn codes list.

Hashes

All three are the same number: the joaat (Jenkins one-at-a-time) hash of the lower case name, which is what GetHashKey('policeb') and the Lua backtick form `policeb` return.

Use the Police Bike engine sound on your car

The game has a car audio object named after this model, so one line in the vehicles.meta of an add-on car makes it use the Police Bike sound set:

<audioNameHash>policeb</audioNameHash>

• Engine audio type: granular. Recorded engine samples blended by engine speed, the type most modern GTA cars use.
• The audio object sets rev limiter pops.
• This object also holds siren sounds. Server owners usually keep emergency audio on emergency vehicles.
• The audio object is the whole vehicle sound: engine, horn, doors and radio genre change together. How it sounds on your car also depends on that car's gears and top speed.

Want a recorded engine instead of a GTA one? FiveM engine sounds lists 102 packs and the Soundpack Maker builds the resource.

Mod kit, colours and lights

• 1 factory colour combinations in carvariations.meta.
• carvariations lightSettings 12: the headlight and taillight preset it reads from carcols.
• sirenSettings 6: the siren light setup it uses. An add-on that reuses this id shares that setup.
• Plates: rear only.
• Stock wheel category at the mod shop: Bike.
• Seat layout LAYOUT_BIKE_POLICE, 1 seats.

vehicles.meta flags

In plain words: no boot; counts as a police vehicle; cannot be resprayed; never placed as a parked car by the game.

All 8 flags

• FLAG_NO_BOOT
• FLAG_LAW_ENFORCEMENT
• FLAG_NO_RESPRAY
• FLAG_IGNORE_ON_SIDE_CHECK
• FLAG_DONT_SPAWN_IN_CARGEN
• FLAG_HEADLIGHTS_USE_ACTUAL_BONE_POS

Questions

What is the spawn code for the Police Bike in GTA 5 and FiveM?

The spawn code (model name) is policeb. Its joaat hash is 0xFDEFAEC3 (4260343491 as an unsigned number). Admin menus such as vMenu, txAdmin and the /car command of QBCore or ESX take the model name as it is.

How fast is the Police Bike in GTA 5?

Its handling gives a top-gear limit of about 162 km/h (101 mph): fInitialDriveMaxFlatVel 135 x 1.2, the value GetVehicleModelEstimatedMaxSpeed returns for ordinary handling values. Drag and upgrades change what a driver sees. It is RWD with 4 gears and weighs 250 kg.

Can I give an add-on car the Police Bike engine sound?

Yes. Put <audioNameHash>policeb</audioNameHash> in the add-on car's vehicles.meta. The game then uses the Police Bike audio object, which is the whole vehicle sound: engine, horn, doors and radio genre change together. This object also holds siren sounds.
