    So when is Rastuscat getting his?

    It's a phased replacement, not all happening at once, so the oldest BMWs get replaced first.

    He's the boss tho, so maybe he'll ... acquire it

    That said, I wasn't aware Honda had an authority model, nor was it "manufactured" and rather was retro-fitted. There are less than a handful of manufacturers with actual factory authority models.

    No pics in the article either

    Especially given the heading says "New Police motorcycles launched (+photos)" and the URL includes the e photos.

    Article does say lights etc integrate at manufacture stage


    Stupid phone / Tapatalk, apologies in advance.

    He murmured something about them coming on here a few months ago.

    Pretty sure those side cases have heat lamps to keep the doughnuts warm

    I liked the comment

    "In about two-thirds (66 percent) of motorcycle crashes involving a collision with another vehicle, the other vehicle bears the primary responsibility."

    So our acc levy's will be coming down

    I liked it, too. But wrong thread.

    Looking forward to a ride report on the factory fitted ST's. Can't beat factory fitted IMHO.

    Well, how many bikes have gone up in smoke (and lots of flames) in the last 5 years?

    On the other hand, 50% of their "fleet" is being upgraded. Counties gets none... (but Counties did just get a new BMW last year? maybe the previous year...)
