The '''HPV-1000''' is a [[police]] motorcycle in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]].


== Description ==
== Description ==
The HPV-1000 is a [[police]] motorcycle ridden by [[San Andreas Police Department]] [[Motor Officer|police bikers]]. It is very fast and agile (below higher end models such as the [[FCR-900]] and [[NRG-500]]), although the player can fall off easily if they have minimal "bike skill". Unless the [[Rhino]] or [[Hunter]] is available, this bike is a good choice for completing the [[Vigilante]] side mission - mainly because the player can [[Drive-By Shooting|fire a submachine gun straight ahead]], allowing them to take out the opponent easily. Although its siren is no longer effective in prompting oncoming vehicles to move out of the way, its compact motorcycle design allows it to navigate around traffic far better than full-sized cars.

The HPV-1000 makes an important appearance in "[[Cop Wheels]]", in where [[Protagonist|protagonist]] [[Carl Johnson]] needs to steal four HPV-1000s in various places around [[Las Venturas]] for the [[Breaking the Bank at Caligula's|heist]] and needs to deliver it to a moving [[Packer]].

* In a [[Content Changes|prerelease]] screenshot of the game, "911" was written on the rear and used to display the text "POLICE" instead of "SAPD" in the final build.<ref>[http://www.gtasanandreas.net/screenshots/gallery.php?image=25 Prerelease screenshot of the HPV-1000]</ref> In another prerelease screenshot, "[[LSPD in GTA III Era|LSPD]]" was displayed on the rear of it,<ref>[http://www.gtasanandreas.net/screenshots/gallery.php?image=89 Prerelease screenshot of the HPV-1000]</ref> implying that there would be a city-specific version of each HPV-1000, rather than a state-wide version.
