Default How to find a police bike taken out of duty and export to Germany

Hi together,
I would like to buy an original Harley Police bike which has been taken out of duty from a Police Department. As I am going to export it to Ggermany, I want to keep all decals, special lights and sirene on.

Can anyone tell me, how I can find dealers who sell returned police bikes.

I will be in Las Vegas and in Florida in the next months.
If you are aware of dealers or privat persons in these areas who sell a bike, let me know.
Thanks in advance !

Usually, when PD's retire vehicles, all of the lights, siren, and decals are removed. Most states prohibit people from buying vehicles with official emblems/stickers and emergency equipment. I see few every so often that are police models, but were never actually used as LEO bikes.

When I was considering one, I found the majority of them in Texas, California, and South Florida. I saw many of them on cycle trader.com by searching "road king police". Most of the retired LEO bikes were either all white, black and white, or green and white.

Good luck with your search.

Ray Price HD in Raleigh, NC usually has a few police bikes in stock. My uncle bought one from there. They must remove the colored lenses, siren and badging before selling to the general public.
