Thought I read somewhere that police bikes had a letter in front of the
VIN. A V maybe?

I recently, last fall, purchased a 1974 LAPD, Oct. '73, |

does
not have the siren lever even though it has the bracket on muffler mount
and, two, the fenders are black with a white center stripe and no
pinstriping. I figured mine was not owned by a police department due to
there not being a siren lever and no windshield brackets. Mine showed
11,000
on the clock and tires, though not oridginal, have like new tread but
the
sides are weather checked and the rest of the rubber parts showed little
wear. I figured a police department bike would show a lot more miles and
wear. Mine is in pretty good oridginal condition, runs good but has
timing
chain noise, and the PO had added a Wixom fairing, bags, and top box
witch
made me like it even more. Anyway, sounds as if you have a nice "goose",
have lots of tun fixing it up!
