bikers beware
 
this is news right from my old mans mouth, for those who do not know me my father is an officer and while on patrol today noticed that the state police now have sports bike units, on top of that they are hyabusas, they are just like the crown vics white with a black stripe and strobe lights, so for those of you tst'rs that ride bikes look out for them i will try to get some pics so u can see what they look like, also they only have 2 of them at the moment

edit...
nah im just gonna fly the flag and keep calling bs.

im with jspek. While i think its a cool idea I dont think they'd ever do it. Whats the point? To catch some bikes that run? The danger to an officers life while on a 150mph chase it just too high for a couple of fleeing and evading charges. Even if the officer caught up, you cant pit a bike, and especially not while on a bike.

thats awesome honestly this confirms the rumor a friend of my told me from the 25th.

totally agree with him

den9 08-24-2008 09:11 PM

its bs, a 600 would be quick enough, most cops are old and have no skill on bikes, and they cant lean down with bullet proof vest, if u ever watch them ride harleys their backs are straight and stiff as a board.

if it is true im just waiting for a cop to kill himself on a bike.

like i said im gonna try to get pics, i dont think my old man would lie to me about it and i see enough state troopers at my job im sure i can ask one tomorrow and get a confirmation

Outlawstar98 08-24-2008 11:27 PM

Im also calling BS on this one.....

Oh and Vypurr, i read the article in your sig, i got some lulz out of it.

Erik 08-24-2008 11:32 PM

hm..i dont really understand the point of cops being on bikes to begin with. Yea they can hide a little more...but they cant do anything if you run except wait for a car to join in.

Rey The Great 08-24-2008 11:36 PM

i want pictures.

Did you actually think about that post, or did you just take a dump on the keyboard and hit submit reply? Cuz that basically just a huge pile of ignorance and stupidity.

600s are way to small to put all the gear on, plus ride a 600 all day then ride a Busa all day and tell me which one you would rather have your ass on all day.

The most cops are old and have no motorcycle experience is such an obvious pile of dog **** I dont even need to post anything for that.

Cant lean because of a vest? This isnt MotoGP they are doing its highway patrol, a cops not going to drag knee to try and apprehend a suspect hes going to call it off way before that and just call the plate in. I use to ride with a full crash vest and spine protector and had zero problems dragging knee and bulletproof vests are lighter and allow more movement.

im pretty sure i saw some BMW dual sports in the cop garage in jersey.... anythings possible. anythings better than harleys LOL

This takes the "Dumb posting by a TST member of teh Day" award.

Some of the state's riding programs are pretty intense, cop learn the proper way on laying down a bike BY DOING IT, and alot of other sick maneuvers.
