Default Vintage NYPD bikes..

Friend of mine did some digging through the old negatives at work and came up with these old bike pictures that the NYPD has. Thought some would be enjoyed here. They date back to the early 1900's

First NYPD Motorcycle early 1900's. Notice the Flatiron building in the background which is on 23rd Street/5th Avenue in NYC.

1920's NYPD sidecar

A review of bikes at the old NYPD Headquarters

1926 NYPD Indian
