The '''Police Bike''' is a [[LCPD in GTA IV Era|Liberty City Police Department]] [[Motor Officer|police motorcycle]] | The '''Police Bike''' is a [[LCPD in GTA IV Era|Liberty City Police Department]] [[Motor Officer|police motorcycle]] normally featured only in [[The Ballad of Gay Tony]]'s [[Multiplayer in The Ballad of Gay Tony|multiplayer]]. | ||
== Design == | |||
Based off a [[wp:Harley-Davidson Electra Glide Ultra Classic#Electra Glide|Harley-Davidson Electra Glide]], the Police Bike is styled as a police-adopted touring motorcycle in LCPD's white-and-blue livery. The bike is also prominently equipped with a fairing, side and back-mounted panniers/boxes. | |||
Despite most motorbikes being able to seat two people, however, the Police Bike can only seat one person as a box has occupied the area where the rear seat should be. In addition, while the Police Bike is additionally equipped with strobe lights and a siren, activating them will not force any traffic ahead to make way. The bike also lacks an [[Emergency Vehicle Radio|emergency radio]], featuring a standard radio in its place, the only law enforcement vehicle to allow players to listen to standard radio stations. | |||
Like the [[Police Stinger]] and [[Buffalo]]-based [[Police Buffalo|Police Cruiser]], the bike is neither ridden by any NPC police officer nor seen in The Ballad of Gay Tony's single player mode. The only conventional means of finding and obtaining the vehicle is via specific multiplayer modes, such as [[Free Mode]]. | |||
