Galactica 1980 is a short-run sequel sci-fi series of the original television series Battlestar Galactica (1978). In the episode "The Super Scouts, Part I" (aired on March 16, 1980) two Colonial warriors escape two CHP (note that they don't have correct CHP badge, shoulder patch and helmet winged wheel) motor officers (who look very much like Ponch and Jon bad copies) by using flying motorcycles. One of the two motor officers refers to "CHiPs" complaining to his partner: "How come this never happens to those two guys on TV?".

The CHP motor officers (from different camera angles of the same pursuit scene) ride four different bikes, three of which tested by the CHP in those years: a Kawasaki 900, a Suzuki 850 and a Honda 750 four (note the higher frontal red lights). The fourth motorcycle is a Moto Guzzi but it's not the Moto Guzzi Eldorado tested by CHP.
