I found this book to be full of inaccurate statements and misinformation. Right at the start the NJ State Police “era” is incorrect. Bigtwin H-D fatbob tanks were never used for oil and then gasoline as stated. They were always used for gasoline. Only the 45 utilised one fatbob for oil and the other for fuel. This is just two examples.

This book is an easy-to-read, comprehensive analysis of police and military motorcycles. The author’s research took him around the world, and the coverage in the book is the better for it. A must-read for anyone interested in motorcycles.
