I am retired from law enforcement, but I cannot think of a job I'd LOVE more than a motor officer in Beverly Hills! Weather. Riding. Getting paid to do it. Weather. Uniform. Benefits. Places and things to do. Oh, did I mention weather? lol. What a blast!!
"All units on all frequencies standby". Does anyone remember that broadcast put out by LAPD Communications Division before the "Link" took over a pursuit?
Because leather sucks for any other environment except circuit. It's heavy, it doesn't breathe well, it keeps the rider hot and it absorb moisture in (sweat or rain) . Modern synthetic fabric is better in every way, but for circuit, leather is still no1.
My only regret in staying in the federal sector of law enforcement is that there are hardly any federal agencies running motor units. And those that are, generally don't get out much. At least my job pays enough to afford my own bikes...
Yeah, I would be smiling too, look at the nice neighborhoods you get to ride through on your beamer, no ghettos. Still, great video, and yes, best job.
It would be interesting to see if the K1600GT would be able to make it through pattern 3 which is commonly refereed to as the eliminator. For those that don"t know you enter the pattern travel a short distance and lock the steering to the left do a 180 degree turn, travel a short distance turn right 180 degrees, travel a short distance and turn to the left 180 degrees and exit the pattern. When conducting each turn you are turning the handle bars to the steering lock on the frame in some instances leaning the bike is required to to navigate the turn. I have never ridden the K1600GT in out patterns but I have test ridden one before buying my personal R1200RT. The K1600Gt has a long wheel base.
K1600GT is definitely a freeway rocket, even compared to the R1250RT. But, as Gene said, the longer wheelbase (and heavier wet weight) make it less effective for police use. I think the new R1250RTs are up around 120hp now. I test-rode one last year, and the fuel management system is crazy; if you turn the throttle to WFO, it pulls as if you downshifted a gear, the fuel system just gives it everything it's got. The K- and R- bikes are loaded with the latest motorcycle tech. I think I might look at a new R-RT in a few years, even if I have to sell both my Concours14 and R1150RTP.
They've been standard issue for years... the open faced helmet is obviously the best choice for their work... telling idiots commands and being more useful. I rode sheriff's patrol with open face and never had an issue -- most head injuries are from no helmet, usually to the back of the head or side -- close face are too confining for their work.
hi sir good afternoon, can i ask you some favor, im new here in UA-cam can i re-uploaded your video on my channel? i love story about using motorcycle thanks
I’d rather have police who feel like serving and protecting the community is their calling or passion. Not some dude who’s a cop because he wants to ride a motorcycle. That’s why there’s more crappy police officers than anyone would like to admit. People who join for many reasons that have nothing to do with actual passion in police work.
Proportionality yeah I guess so as you have a lot of high end sports cars there as we do here in London..... thanks for the offer but il stay here!! 😉😎
It's not about speed at all. It's reliability, braking ability, maneuverability and operating the bike for 10 hours a day in relative comfort. The BMW is a "turn-key" police bike meaning it comes with all of the emergency equipment. Other bikes have to have custom set-ups and the equipment has to be purchased through third parties. The BMW is also cool and quiet, which decreases fatigue. More fatigue decreases alertness, riding ability and overall safety. The HD's will be around forever, but the BMW is the only police bike made from the ground up.
Most of his praise for BMW police motorcycle has to do with appearance and image. Appearance and image is something Harley Davidson Road King and Electra Glide has over all other police motorcycles. They should be riding Harley's! And don't reply with myths about Harley Davidson motorcycles leaking oil or being unreliable. Harley Davidson makes a solid and reliable police motorcycle that has been serving police departments for over 100 years.
Naw the BMW is the best looking police bike out there. Harleys aren’t as time less as their owners like to think they are. They are definitely showing their age. Product of a dying company.

German bikes, just like their German ideology that they ascribe to: The Monopoly on Violence. "The monopoly of the legitimate use of physical force, also known as the monopoly on violence (German: Gewaltmonopol des Staates), is a core concept of modern public law, which goes back to Jean Bodin's 1576 work Les Six livres de la République and Thomas Hobbes' 1651 book Leviathan.[citation needed] As the defining conception of the state, it was first described in sociology by Max Weber in his essay Politics as a Vocation (1919).[1] Weber claims that the state is the "only human Gemeinschaft which lays claim to the monopoly on the legitimated use of physical force. However, this monopoly is limited to a certain geographical area, and in fact this limitation to a particular area is one of the things that defines a state."[2] In other words, Weber describes the state as any organization that succeeds in holding the exclusive right to use, threaten, or authorize physical force against residents of its territory. Such a monopoly, according to Weber, must occur via a process of legitimation. Max Weber wrote in Politics as a Vocation that a fundamental characteristic of statehood is the claim of such a monopoly, His expanded definition was that something is "a 'state' if and insofar as its administrative staff successfully upholds a claim on the 'monopoly of the legitimate use of physical force' (German: das Monopol legitimen physischen Zwanges) in the enforcement of its order."[3][4] Weber's concept has been formalized to show that the exclusive policing power of the state benefits social welfare via private property, provided the state acts benevolently in the interest of its citizens.["5] According to Weber, the state is that "human community that (successfully) claims the monopoly of the legitimate use of violence within a given territory." The public police and military are its main instruments, but private security might also be considered to have "the 'right' to use violence" so long as the sole source of this perceived right is state sanction. Weber applied several caveats to his discussion of the state's monopoly of violence: This obviously contradicts directly with enlightenment principles of individual sovereignty that delegates power to the state by consent, and concepts of natural law that hold that individual rights deriving from sapient self-ownership preexist the state and are only recognised and guaranteed by the state which may be restricted from limiting them by constitutional law" -wiki
So why aren't your Motor Officers wear appropriate motorcycle gear...? Come on- Horsey riding boots from 1930's, Open face vs Modular helmets, No jackets with safety armor....?
Beverly Hills one of the best cities or one of the richest? What can you say about a police department that's more concerned about having a classy bike than fighting crime? Buy American!
Never worked for BHPD. Did spend several years during my law enforcement career working a "Tom" unit, an accident investigation car. One person "TL" in quiet divisions, and a two officer "T" unit in the hotter areas. Beverly Hills PD was, when I was working , one of the most professional police departments on the west side of Los Angeles. Later, as a detective sergeant, when I had opportunity to visit their state of the art new facility, well I as too close to retirement to consider a transfer. Totally support BHPD
"what more could you ask for?" I could ask you to uphold the 7th amendment. All trials by jury must be examined under the rules of common law. Common law states there must be a victim in order for there to have been a crime.
Well you can't be convicted a "crime" in a constitutionally compliant court preceding unless you can bring a victim. A crime requires there to have been a victim. That's the standard a crime has to meet in order for it to be a crime. The purpose of that is to prevent arbitrary laws from being enacted and maintain freedom. The court and jury is suppose to be the finders of FACTS. Facts are what has happened and what is happening, NOT what could have happened. Better ban alcohol, cause you might beat your wife. Better ban guns cause you could murder people with them. These are all examples of extra constitutional legal proceedings. They'll try to tell you this is only for civil court blah blah blah, whatever, the 7th amendment actually has two orders relating to each other but not exclusive to each other. READ IT CAREFULLY and you will see the "And". The fact is they have no constitutional standing and thus can't produce a victim or a jury for many of these charges. Any crime of infamy which refers to where you're required to serve more than 1 day in jail/ could tarnish your public image requires a trial by jury. "and no fact tried by a jury shall be otherwise reexamined in any Court of the United States, than according to the rules of common law". These standards are here to prevent the erosion of freedom through the inaction of arbitrary laws. Now it is possible that you could be arrested for being drunk. But being drunk is not a crime. And that's because THERE ISN'T, IN FACT, A VICTIM. What they do with you the next day, when you're sober, cannot include a court preceding and charge unless they can bring a victim and produce a jury and have them examine the facts under the rules of common law to arrive at a conviction. This is how it's suppose to operate in America. Not: officer: "oH I seen him done it!" judge:"offf with his head!".
@@JB-mo8rs possession of methamphetamine is not an action that creates a victim, thus is not a crime under the constitution. Being under the influence is also not an action that creates a victim. However that doesn't negate historical precedence for overnight jailing to sober people up who are causing a disturbance and creating victims, blocking travel threatening people, breaking stuff etc. Want to send them to Prison or hang them: bring in the victim.
@@miltechmoto Well, you like to use a lot of legalese, but you’re wrong. The seventh amendment has to do with civil cases. I’m a So Cal LEO. I’ve arrested plenty of people for possession of a controlled substance, possession for sales, under the influence of a controlled substance, drunk in public, DUI and even urinating in public. I’ve written lots of stop sign and speeding tickets and even parking tickets too. None of those crimes had a victim. All constitutionally legal stops and arrests. You see a judge for all arrests even for infractions at traffic court.

Question: why don't motor officers where leather jackets anymore, the leather jackets at one time was part of the motorcycle officers uniform.
Because leather sucks for any other environment except circuit. It's heavy, it doesn't breathe well, it keeps the rider hot and it absorb moisture in (sweat or rain) . Modern synthetic fabric is better in every way, but for circuit, leather is still no1.

Imagine properly trained BMW S100RR cops....
Don't much you can do with a bike governed at 130 when the CBR 1000 is governed at 181.
There's literally nowhere in Beverly hills where someone is going to be able to go 186 mph and not hit something and die.
Stealth Bobber, I doubt that.
wouldn't a s1000r be better? cheaper to repair, somewhat better handling
Do you see what gear they're carrying? There's a full size AR15 and a few storage boxes of random shit, not much you can put on an s1000r
The BMW has everything you want minus top ended and horse power..
At Least it's not going to break down half a mile on.
It has low end torque and that is what counts on the street. And that is where every motor cop in southern California spends his/her day.
