@mark7seven cool story bro

@mark7seven In most cases if not all motor officer are traffic officers. I don't know what "equipment" it is that you speak of but to me they would need a radar gun, rain gear, flares, their ticket book and of course thiir lunch. I don't how much torque you think is required to haul that much stuff around but it ain't that much. All the lighting equipment and sirens now being electronic are very lightweight so your arguement is mute there also. Calif. Hwy. Patrol has vids on here with Hondas.

@TheByrdFlu FWI, "Ponch" rode a Kawasaki.......

@Towndrunk26er LEO ride what the department they work for says they ride. PERIOD. Many times the economics determine the brand and model that is selected. Will a crotch rocket outrun a HD, Yup, every time it will. Is it a good choice for police work. Not always. A crotch rocket will accelerate and hit high speeds quickly, but don't have the torque the V-twin bikes have and with all the equipment they are required to carry they need the torque. Honda & BMW do have excellent police bikes too

@tirapelli This is an often brought up but moot point. Most police departments don't condone chases at 100 miles per hour or above. Sometimes their limit is less. Their point being that at those speeds, the officers life is in danger as is the rider being chased and the general public.

To this on any motor cycle in in low gear, on a large bick is diffcult. To this on a fully equipped POlice motorcycle is very hard... to this on a Heavy equiped Harley is dam impressive...

@greg5566 actually, if you're on a motorcycle that makes physical contact with another moving vehicle, the size of the bike won't matter much... you're toast! the size advantage helps (a little) to avoid getting hit in the first place.

@whiskeywilliams ur instructor told u a very EXPENSIVE thing that any Idiot can drive fast!! my father also told me that Driving only fast is not driving but driving in CONTROL is driving!! !!
that was incredible... if you listen they barely ever scrape asphalt! for heavy bikes with unforgiving centers of gravity at THAT slow of speed and THAT close to one another? oh yeah.... they are good. this was impressive for sure!
