But I do like the look of the ones Specialist Firearms Command (SO19) anti terror police use here in the U.K..

The military used to use Harley Davidson MT350.

I can see why counter-terrorism police would use those bikes. I’m not a bike person either, but I like the look of the Hondas best of the ones you showed.

The Hondas are ideal for the SEG as they are low, you can see them for visuals of what they want you to do, and they have all round visibility.

I prefer the white of the SEG but the metallic red looks good.
