    New wheels for Rastus and demotion to 4 wheels

    http://www.visordown.com/motorcycle-...ion/25090.html


    So what is this 350bhp Honda engine they speak of and if that's a "highly-impactive engagement vehicle" whats a superbike?

    Oh and where can I get some
    Hella pursuit lights.

    Hhhmmmm not a lot of ground clearance. Not the first time the brit cops have used high speed motors.
    Not sure if I'd want to spend too much time in it, safety wise and murphys law and all...

    If Rastus pulls up at the Blue Duck or Little River cafe in one of those, I'm stopping for a chat.

    Try Hella? You may find certain colours are restricted for sale, usual story for any beacons/flashing lights etc.

    I want to see them using it when it's raining

    1800 v-tech Honda.

    Comes in a turbo version that if it were possible to get enough traction, would see the needle pass 100kph in less than two seconds.

    Does not strike me as the best vehicle for a police officer to be in chasing a evil bastard in a large 4WD .............

    Ah 4WD v Atom that is groin height ........... how the heck is the Atom going to pull over the big arse 2 tonn plus 4WD? Maybe drive past it at 250 and hope the wake of air causes the 4WD to lose control

    It's hardly going to be effective in pushing the 4WD off the road

    It's a wank. A very cool wank though
