UNSPSC 25174605: Motorcycle seat

A saddle that is made in materials of leather, synthetic resin, urethane foam and others to sit on the motorcycle.

UNSPSC 25174605 Motorcycle seat, a Commodity code, addresses law enforcement motorcycles and related support services in recent state and local solicitations, though the code's literal scope diverges markedly from what is actually being procured. State and local buyers under this code are issuing Invitations for Bid and Requests for Proposals for fully equipped police pursuit motorcycles—including vehicles, repair services, parts supply, diagnostics, training, and technical support—rather than seats alone. The issuing bodies include state comptroller offices (Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts), cities (Atlanta, Phoenix, St. Cloud), counties (represented in Sourcewell cooperative procurement), state departments (Nevada Department of Public Safety), and regional cooperative purchasing vehicles (Illinois Department of Central Management Services, Sourcewell). Police departments and public works agencies are the primary customers. Brand preferences have emerged: jurisdictions specify BMW R 1300 RT-P models, Harley-Davidson Police platforms (FLHTP), or manufacturer equivalents meeting law enforcement specifications including 1300cc to 1500cc engine displacement, anti-lock braking, emergency lighting systems with programmable LEDs, and integrated mounts for weapons and radar equipment. Contracts typically carry initial terms of three to five years with renewal options extending up to ten years, and pricing is firm and all-inclusive, incorporating delivery, pre-delivery service, freight, registration, and manufacturer's literature.

Recent activity spans Texas, Illinois, Georgia, Florida, Arizona, Mississippi, and Nevada. The Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts issued IFB 304T-26-071A1 for 12 law enforcement motorcycles for the Texas Department of Public Safety, with sealed bids due May 19, 2026. The Illinois Department of Central Management Services issued IFB 27-416CMS-BOSS4-B-52578 for a joint purchase master contract for police pursuit motorcycles available to multiple governmental units statewide, with bids due July 2, 2026.
