I see a lot of used cop bikes on the road here in SoCal, with a lot of wannabe (I guess) cop riders. I really do not like having one in my mirror and then seeing it's just some asshat that wants to freak out motorists and bikers. I guess there must be some motivation, but I fail to see it. Not many people have good experiences with cops on bikes, me included. Good luck.

I concur with BlkSheep.

FFFH- club thing, don't worry bout it.
if it causes some of the asshats around here to drive like they have a double digit iq's- then it'll serve its purpose.

You got some dirty laundry on top of the washer dryer set, and take your trash out.

Whatever floats your boat - your bike, your money - if you like it, do it.

Personally, I think it's a hideous abomination. The Honda CB750 I bought in high school had a similar fairing on it (windjammer) and that was the first thing to come off the bike, even though the stock plastic headlight bucket that I had to put back on had a big *** crack in it. Just absolutely not to my liking.

Ride safe!

So, you really DO get off on intimidating people on the road? On a motorcycle?

You guys ARE asshats. As I figured. Seems obvious who has the double digit IQ.

Hope your life insurance is paid up.

you guys? what the f*ck are you gettin at there? I like the way the old dyna defenders and fxr-p's look, was kinda going for that. If it causes the other motorists or some jackass with a diamond on his cut to pucker up a bit, f*ck them. My life insurance, its paid for. how about cutting out the bullshit and saying what you really mean?

Well I've got to give him credit for stepping outside of the box, and his F-you attitude as well. I'll bet it was a time consuming PITA mounting that Fairing & Bags. And it worked, he accomplished his goal of making it resemble a police bike. In fact IMO it resembles an FXRP. So I think it's pretty cool to see something so unique posted here.

Kudos to you Tree, now paint that b!tch black!

What I really mean, is that people don't like seeing cops in their mirrors, even worse, a fake cop. Why imitate that behavior? People shoot at cops here in SoCal, you want to be a target?

We have enough to worry about on the road, without some weird vigilante attitude. Just ride defensively and keep a good Zen.

That's all I really mean. It's weird and uncool to me if that is your mission with this bike. You asked for input, you got it.

Hopefully you are not following too close to the lady on the phone and using her rear mirror to do her makeup while drinking coffee. Suddenly she sees your fake cop bike and slams on the brakes out of fear.
