As implied, the VCPD Wintergreen is based on the civilian [[Wintergreen]], which in turn is based on a [[wp:Harley-Davidson FL#Electra Glide|Harley-Davidson Electra Glide]], true to the usage of the Electra Glide by real-life police officials. The VCPD Wintergreen, however, can be identified by the presensce of red strobe lights, a permanently black paintjob, no top box and lower handlebars. The bike also sports a minor cosmetic difference between the [[PlayStation Portable]] and [[PlayStation 2]] versions of the game, featuring a taller windshield in the PS2 version than in the PSP version. By 1986 in [[GTA: Vice City]],the bike is not used anymore by the VCPD. | As implied, the VCPD Wintergreen is based on the civilian [[Wintergreen]], which in turn is based on a [[wp:Harley-Davidson FL#Electra Glide|Harley-Davidson Electra Glide]], true to the usage of the Electra Glide by real-life police officials.

Sharing a similar body as the Wintergreen, the performance of the VCPD Wintergreen may be considered similar to or better than the Wintergreen's, with good speed and acceleration. Similar in construction to the [[Freeway]], however, the Wintergreen requires moderate use of the brakes to handle sharp corners. Like the [[HPV-1000]] in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas|GTA San Andreas]], the player can [[Drive-By Shooting|shoot forward]] on a VCPD Wintergreen, making the bike ideal for [[Vigilante]] missions so long its tires are not punctured. | Sharing a similar body as the Wintergreen, the performance of the VCPD Wintergreen may be considered similar to or better than the Wintergreen's, with good speed and acceleration.
