The motorcycle Bodie and Doyle are pushing is my 1974 Harley-Davidson FLH 1200 Electra Glide, UK registration HGC 47N. At the time of filming it was owned by Jim Dowdall, a very successful UK movie stuntman and stunt coordinator - see his filmography in the IMDB: http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0235695/. Jim had the machine repainted from the original metallic blue to police birch white some time after these images were taken. The Harley was used in at least two episodes of 'The Professionals', and appeared in several 'Top of the Pops', 'Red Dwarf (see this website), 'Hart to Hart', in movies including 'The Wall', 'The Aerodrome', and also magazine ads. I bought the motorcycle from Jim around 10 years ago, and have repainted it US police black and white since.
