Strange choice- Dont think Sting does much these days with the boys. But seriously why not, but dont reckon you rise to the two wheel squad quite so easy as that
Interesting choice of bikes Panigale V2 - 153 bhp and a supersport 950 s - 111 bhp Panigale certainly looks a lot better, nice to see it’s more about safety. They talk about anything of note?
Obviously just a Bikesafe promotional thing. Police in Scotland were running unmarked sports bikes, Fireblades I think, a few years back in popular biking areas to clamp down on dangerous riding. On the Bikesafe course I did years ago the coppers were on full dress patrol bikes, Beemers IIRC.
They're not your mates, they'd nick you in a heartbeat for even the most petty things, in the Police, points make prizes-for them.
Looking good on that bike, @Bikerman! I've never seen motorcycle cops on anything remotely like those Ducatis here in Arizona. So....what's "Bike Safe'?
Society we live in. On one hand society wants the Police to be this approachable entity and on the other not happy when the Police are seen using any form of force. People forget other emergency services are there purely to help Police don’t always fall into that category. The French tiered Police system have it right.
That's really interesting, Bikerman. It seems like a very good idea although I've no idea if the execution of it works. I haven't heard of anything like it in the U.S. We have beginner, intermediate, and advanced riding classes but I'm sure that's also the case in the UK. BikeSafe seems to address motorcycle safety in a unique fashion.
They had a stand at Spilsby Bike Night last night - I read their blurb and considered it, but decided not to just now - if I had realised how cheap it is I would have had a chat.
