Get a Suzuki Patroller
(March 5, 2021)
Unique police model
Here's something you definitely won't see every day, a 1976 police variant of the Suzuki GT750 'waterbottle'.
Some are believed to have seen service in Europe and Australia, though most are thought to have been sent into service across Asia and Africa.
Suzuki also built a GT500 Patroller.
Apart from the obvious bodywork, lights and solo seat, it was fitted with a more finely calibrated than standard speedo (by Nippon Denso) with a pointer stop to record the top speed of whoever the cop was chasing.
Located in Germany, this looks like an exceptional example. It will be interesting to see what it fetches.
Cop bikes don't necessarily attract big prices, despite their compariticve rarity and the effort that goes into restoring them. See the auction here.
