    I was just driving around town when i seen 2 motorcycle Police with a car pulled over each. They were riding blue Transalps. Something i have never seen before and the tyres were (forgive my naitivity) semi knobbies, so they were obviously doing a bit of bush patrol as well.

    Has anyone else seen this before?

    Most police trail bikes are DRZ’s. Why would they be stupid enough to spend an extra $4000 on something else that does the same job. :laugh:

    So they keep telling me. Funny thing is I ride the same trails at the same pace and turn up at the same locations as everybody else. Must just be my riding talent, or everyone elses lack off. :ohmy: :laugh:

    See them most weekends passing my place on their new Katos. They go dowm trying to catch the kids riding in an area that I used to ride in my younger days. The kids usually stop by if I’m out the front and ask if their in the area and ride off in the other direction if they are.

    Nothing wrong with a banana, blokes! In the hands of a capable rider they are a secret weapon! I would even say they are THE most underrated trailbike out there at the moment, with a TTR250 a close second.

    Have yet to see PC Plod on the trails (riding anyway) at all, but rangers make a regular appearance.

    There are three different commands in this part of town that have different brands. One’s running XR’s (yes, still!), another has bananas and yet another has the green machines (which they say are the duck’s guts).
