As far as Milwaukee, Wi, I don't think you will see Indian motorcycles on patrol.

I find it interesting to read the motorcycle testing and evaluation reports that law enforcement does.

Last fall I met two LEO's that ride Harley's in their off-time.
Wifey and I were in Rock Hill, SC at lunch time. We were going to pull into Wendy's parking lot when some guy on the Left got tired of waiting for right turning traffic, so he cut in front of me. I just counter-steered toward him and flipped the bike to the right down another entrance way. We circled around and went on into Wendy's.

Those two LEO's were sitting there eating and they introduced themselves to us as fellow Harley riders.
One of them said, "that was some fine bike handling out there."
I asked, "oh you saw that, huh"?
LEO said, 'Yeah, if I'd been able to get out there, he'd had himself a ticket'.
We sat there and talked for a while about where we were headed and where all we rode in SC since we were from NC. Really nice guys.

Ya I have seen a few cop Harley's here on the East Coast of Canada. Most seem to be riding Honda's.
