Days after Delhi government made helmets mandatory for women pillion drivers, two-wheeler manufacturer Yamaha Motor India Monday launched its helmets range for women and children starting from Rs.990.
"The Delhi Government's mandate for woman to wear helmets even as pillion riders; is indeed a welcome move," said Roy Kurian, vice president - sales and marketing, Yamaha Motor India.
"On day one of this move, we could see many women riders being fined and most of the women riders came up with excuses such as non-availability of helmets exclusively for women. Gauging the requirements, we are happy to introduce our new range of helmets meant exclusively for women."
According to the company, the new helmet products will be available at all Yamaha dealerships across the country with a price range between Rs.990 and Rs.1,380.
