Default sportster police bike
Hi Guys, Just got back from Washington DC. and I couldn't belive my eyes. There was a sportster police bike being used for controling the traffic. Ive never seen that before. By the time I got the camera ready he had already drove away. Just thought id throw that out there

It was probably one of these. HD has been making a Sportster Police bike for a long time.

That is a cool looking Sportster. I still would not want a ticket from the officer on it though.

Major improvement over those damn Honda Rebels they’ve been riding for years. Cringe every time I see one.

Most of the cops that ride around here are on police scooters. Inner city college campus patrols. I would much rather be pulled over by a sporty. Or a go cart. Just not a scooter.
