I talked to the motor officer and they are excited to have this bike, both for downtown and especially for use in the city parks. The strobes on this are amazing and light up the world from every angle.
I want one!
Earlier this month Sioux Falls Police began using a Triumph Tiger XR, a multi-purpose motorcycle with an 800 cubic centimeter engine designed for use both on road and off-road.
“Pretty much every day it’s going to be in use in the parks service – parks, the bike trail and things like that,” said Lt. Jeff Garden.
The Triumph Tiger, decked out with all the bells and whistles that the department’s seven Harley-Davidsons are equipped with, is expected to give officers better access to areas of the city that are difficult to get to. Garden said during a recent missing child case at Great Bear, officers on scene determined they couldn’t adequately hunt for the child using their motorcycles and had to run back to the public safety headquarters in downtown Sioux Falls to get the department’s four-wheelers to continue the search.
