Spotted: unmarked R1 motorbike

[Mickyy]

Looks like no one on the sunshine coast is getting away...

DAMN!

Nice
Those guys at Alderly have got to be the best in the country
I'm just hoping the officer that rides doesn't wear his reflective vest

[rochedalescan]

You will probably find they will have to and that will be the only letdown / make the bike recognisable at all.

[Mickyy]

No they dont actually.

I was talking to the officer, but he didnt want to be in a photo himself.

He was wearing plain black leathers. His leather jacket had a QPS emblem on the shoulders and his surname was on the collar in dark blue stitching. If this guy rode past you on the road you would not pick him as police at all until he was lit up like a christmas tree.

I was only joking about that. I knew that they were smarter than to wear their vest. There are a few videos of covert bikes on QPS Youtube channel, but these do not have the lights, but have contact with a marked unit to make the stop.

Jesus. Getting so easy to be caught these days

Where about's on the sunshine coast did u see this? Those people in the top right of the photo look awfully rugged up for a Queensland summer
