Police using 1200GS's

[JAY]

Riding through Birmingham today I was passed by a couple of police bikes twice. First one was a Pan euro with blue flashing light and siren and closely following him was another copper on a silver/grey 1200GS. No police markings on it. Strange!

Good choice WMP

'Bout time the West Mids Police picked a decent bike.

Dare say they need it cause of the pot holes on the Pershore road

Saw an R1 in Warwickshire the other week, also unmarked just throwover panniers and the copper had "police" in about inch high letters on his crash hat (note I avoided saying helmet [fnar fnar])

How do you know the one behind was a copper and not a cheeky twat (like me) taking advantage of the clear space behind him? It works a treat until he starts exceeding the speed limit or goes through a red light...

The yellow flouro jacket with "POLICE" written on it was probably the giveaway....

I saw the same upholder of the law last week with three of his pals, and they were going at a pace round pump island.

I couldn't help but notice the big grin on his face.

Pair of R1's

Interestingly i saw a pair of Yam R1's, fully marked up in police colours, but without blues down in North London today....
