There are lots of police bike glimpses in most S1 eps, but never good enough to capture. As I went through the eps, I thought I'd wait until a good one appeared. And I waited. And waited. Finally in the 12th ep of 13, this very brief glimpse. So here it is, on behalf of all the other blurry, brief and/or part-seen examples. BMW RT-Series Ep 3.01, 00-39, 1 - another BMW??

R80RT or R100RT from 1982+..? BMW R80/R100 TIC (Police spec) as built from 1978 (R80) or 1980 (R100) to 1985 The RS has a much lower fairing, the RT has a higher windscreen and more upright rider position and a TIC is an RT adapted to police specs any conclusion on the engine size, 800cc vs. 1000cc..?

I am not convinced that the UK police ever used a R100RT, in my experience they always used the R80RT This is a mockup, when the aircooled boxers were active the livery used orange whereas here they are using the later fluorescent green. The stripe appeared on the lower part of the upper fairing and not as here in line with the headlight. Also look at those big air bubbles in the transfer. Also where are the optional front driving lights ? The police crown should be where the green stripe is placed.

Déjà, c'était possible mais assez peu vraisemblable. La Gendarmerie a toujours été trop radine pour équiper ses pandores en vraies R 100. Mais le plus souvent en R 60 ou R 80 déguisées... Ici, iol s'agit de R 80, reconnaisables au carter de filtre à air (visible au-dessus des carburateurs... Là, pourtant, c'est facile, non?) en plastique noir. Typique des moteurs des dernières 800 BMX... Lesdits carburateurs étant des Bing à membrane (et non à guillotine!), c'est donc une paire de R 80 RT gendarmisées. Les vraies d'origine et tout et tout avaient une selle monoplace...

Sheesh! I could be about 20 cc's off. I used to like these, and I was kind of disappointed that they didn't change over to square headlights.

It's misterious BMW... Brake caliper is behind the tube and cylinder head cover is bare aluminum. From these points, it's R65 from 1978. But this big-shield 'RT' model are sold only R100RT & R80RT. There are two possibilities. One is "these BMW R65 are real police bike" (police R65 with RT shield are actually exists) Two is "fake police bike based on R65" I can only say it's BMW R65 (1978-). Les dernières R 80 RT/1 ont été commercialisées avec le même type d'étriers de freins que les R 65/S. Et étaient de plus des modèles très demandés par les polices européennes... et j'en ai vu passer beaucoup à l'atelier où je travaillais alors... Donc, pour moi, BMW R 80 RT/1, pour autant que je puisse voir (modèles 87/88...) Je rectifie: après avoir comparé avec /vehicle_37425-Rover-3500-SD1.html , on distingue les étriers de freins ancien modèle, typiques de la série R 80/7 de 1977, de même que le petit cache latéral sous la selle de la série 7: donc R 80 RT ou R 100 RT (1977) Oh, Thank you it matchs perfectly. http://bmw.mc.no/bmw/r80rt.html A force de mettre mes doigts dans les vieux flat-twin BMW, je commence à les connaître un peu... (mais je ne suis pas au bout de mes surprises... il m'en reste beaucoup à apprendre!))

Looks BMW-ish. Could be. It has a round badge visible here. Police bikes in the UK mostly used to be Nortons. I have no idea what the badge of a Norton (Or indeed a Norton itself) looks like which prevented me from posting as BMW Unknown.

Here's hoping that everything in the main is the same. And that everything else posted on this page is also the same ... Ep2.05 1* background Ep2.09 - early chase scene (so should be one bike throughout) ... then a depot shot ... then road shots of a pair ... and a night shot to finish this batch. Either: /vehicles_make-BMW_model-K+75+RT.html or: /vehicles_make-BMW_model-K+100+RT.html Alors que les BMW de la photo principale sont vraisemblablement des R80RT. Indeed, just noticed the main image was a different type. But all the thumbs are K75/K100.

OK - noted. I may rearrange the police BMW pages later when I've finished series 3 if there's a better way of grouping these and any others I find.
