I have mad respect for most 2-wheeled cops, they can control those 700lb beats like scooters

They're actually really easy to ride (I own a police bike, a BMW RT-P). It's much easier to ride at anything less than track speeds than my 600 (F4). The geometry of the bike plays a huge role in how it carries itself and the designers understand that you need to be able to manage the bike at a huge variety of speeds.... as opposed to your racer replicas, which really compromise a lot of low speed manueverability and competance to handle track appropriate tasks.
