Hi all, I found and bought a chrome fendered Eldo a couple years back. It is going to be restored right after I finish the one I am doing now, so, maybe in four or five years<G> The neat thing is, it has the single sided brake(2LS) just like my other 'early' Eldos. First one like it I ever saw. It has all the police goodies, big saddlebags, key under the seat,etc, but I never looked to see if it had the siren mount. Prolly not. The '74 disk brake Eldo that I bought from the AZ Hiway Patrol DID NOT have the siren mount. So I wouldn't use that as the only basis to distinguish one as a cop bike....The Eldo I am doing now is supposed to have been a Phx police bike, and it has no siren mount, either. I does have some special guages mounted to a special plate on the fairing, and a clip on the fairing for a microphone. It also has the fuse panel wiring relocated to one of the toolboxes, but it has civilian guages and those lllooonnnggg surfboard type floorboards with a long kickstand. There is no limit to the different ways these bikes came outfitted!! All that for under 1k.! The Arizona Kid Tom Short AZ MGNOC Rep Phoenix, AZ |
