    This is old news, but still amazing to watch the skill these Japanese motorcops have.

    I have to say, given how twitchy the VFR is at low RPMs in first gear, these guys have some serious skill in throttle/clutch control.

    Those are mad skills but look at the handle bars, they come almost to the top of the wind screen making it much easier to do those manuevers.

    That is some hard core riding even with the advantages of the high bars. Check out the size of the crash guards!

    I think that I would rather not attempt these maneuvers on my VFR.........or any bike for that matter.

    For all the technology they have, they still use a bunch of straw tied to a stick as a broom.

    I saw a video of an American cop rider doing a course like that on his cop issued Harley. The course was wider, and wasnt going as fast, but to throw an 800+lb bike (that handles like shit) around like that was impressive.

    those crash guards serve multy purpose. A lot of their emergency equipment will be mounted there. That is why most police vehilces have a so called "push bar". More for equipment than to push vehicles, albeit that is done too.

    I know I know!
    When the ad comes on the tele, I have a hard time keeping a straight face, especially with my children in the room.

    But Honestly, who doesn't have a shedding pussy in their house? Christ, I have five of the damn things! I need a schticky in every room.....

    I'm surprised the ad hasn't been pulled yet.

    Tried one of those shticky things. You can use it once, then rinse, then it's a pain in the ass to dry it. You MUST have a microfiber towel to dry it, or it picks up lint off the towel. It also doesn't grab anywhere near as well as the tape lint rollers. Basically a waste of money.

    Back on topic. Looks like they did custom top triples by drilling stockers. I still like my version better. :cool:
