2011 Victory Cross Country Police
Growing up, I thought being a police officer was a super cool job. And the coolest of the cool jobs was to be a California Highway Patrolman, AKA a CHiP. Every morning before I trotted off to attempt my luck at penetrating the many social hierarchies of middle school, I took in an episode of CHiPs. Erik Estrada was my …
2009 Buell XB12XP Ulysses Police
For years, Harley-Davidson dominated the American police cruiser market. Though BMW, Kawasaki, and other manufacturers are now also making motorcycles you’re constantly scanning for when you’re on the road, Harley also offered a police variant of the Buell Ulysses called the XB12XP which offered better ergonomics and the potential for easier patrolling on fire roads or rough surfaces. This example …

Start a Fleet – 16 California Police Motorcycles
The very first police motorcycle was used in 1908. Since then, police departments have phased out units on horseback in favor of units on horses of the iron variety. Police fleets often include dual-sports and other specialty scoots, but the bulk of police motorcycles are large fully-dressed tourers that are ideal for long hours in the saddle. Harley-Davidson was the …
CSR? 1965 Matchless G80 Rhodesian Police
When it comes to the Matchless brand, the CSR acronym is typically associated with the G12. But the seller of this G80 claims to have 1 of 20 G80 GSRs built as a special order for the Rhodesian High Commission for their police force. I can’t find any independent verification of this and the reader who submitted this to me …
Olympian – 1984 Kawasaki KLT 250-P1 Police
In 1984, Kawasaki apparently pulled 300 KLT 250’s off the production line and converted them into Police trikes. Of those 300, 50 were donated to the LA Olympics Games Planning Committee to help patrol the Olympic grounds. This bike comes with a certificate stating that it was originally provided for the Olympic police force.
Restored Eldo Police – 1973 Moto Guzzi Eldorado
View Post591 Miles – 1981 Moto Guzzi G5 V1000 Police
I’m a sucker for police bikes, which means this Moto Guzzi G5 V1000 Police caught my eye – not to mention it only had about 600 miles of service in Haiti before coming to the US.
CHP – 1938 Harley-Davidson Patrol Bike
I adore police bikes, and this classic Harley is a beautiful example of an ex-California Highway Patrol motorcycle. Too bad the pictures are all so tiny.

Here’s a rare, all original FLH Police Bike. Originally ordered for the police force of Elizabethtown, New Jersey, it was put into service and painted with the ’67 scheme to match the rest of the fleet. After being decommissioned, the bike was sold at auction and then put in storage for years. Now it’s back up for sale after having …

This Moto Guzzi Eldorado Police is an excellent example of MG’s pride and joy – though this is one of the many Police variants, which competed with …
Police Project – 1969 Honda CB450 Police Special
I have a weakness for older ‘service’ bikes, like a previously featured Honda Dream Fire Bike and this Honda CB450 Police Special, which may have also been officially called the Honda CP450. According to the AMA, just 25 were imported to the US to pilot an entrance into the police motorcycle market.
1964 Honda Dream Police
I always thought the Dream was an ugly bike, particularly due to the square headlight and front fender. With that said, its impact on Honda is undeniable, and this Honda Dream Police variant is just too cool not to share.
