Yes that's the one. Note it has the darker blue paint on the windshield, making it different from the earlier version. I am close to being up to date with all of the Police bikes now. I just need one version that should be on it;s way soon. Once I have them all I will do an updated photo.

I know I am piggy-backing on this thread, but the coincidence of a recent gift from Gordon (Playmofire) was too good to pass up.  So didn't think you all would mind the sharing of the following photo.  These two motorcycles (and vintage rider) arrived a few days ago.  I just love them and the refrain Born to be wild . . .  keeps running through my head.   :lol:

i'm about to get my hands on a 5795 set with that yellow striped bike, but also still need that one.
A deal on the SWAT carry-on set went sour lately. Somehow items from Ebay out of the USA always have some issues.
I love that bike in that 4218 carry case :-)

I'm still looking for the following bikes:
3489,3623,4086,5013,5795,9974
The rest i allready bought, but are in transit ;-)



What i'd like to know:

the highway patrol bikes 7681 and 7692 (DS issued), are they exactly the same ones as the originals? (3983 and 86)
What do the licenseplates on the back look like?

Same question i have for the action sets 4086, 5013 and 9974. Do these bikes carry the actual setnr on the licenseplates or are they simply the original bikes added to the sets with that nr's?

Are those customs? I recognize the left one as the 3303, but the stickers and klicky don't match. The right one looks to be from set 3478, correct?

Here's the chopper variation which was available through the DS catalogue a few years ago, 7294.
It comes from the same mold as Martin's (3831), just different colours and printed pattern on the seating area. 8-)

There was no figure included in this set, just the bike and the helmet. :)




Not necessarily! ;)
But if you're going to post pics of real bikes then they should also include their real riders. ;D

actually Sylvia, this motorcycle was from set 3014, the Shell gas-station and later re-issued through DS.
I have the entire set. Only looking for that klicky WITH the Tiger-head sticker on his back. My sticker has been lost....  :o :'(
