First off, when you get lit up, pull to the right. Sounds like common sense, but I've had all types just slam on their brakes, pull to the right and some just slow down waiting for me to go around them.

When you pull over, turn off the bike. If you're on a bike with loud pipes, I can't hear what you're saying and you can't hear what I'm saying. If you have ear plugs in, take them out. Same goes for an Ipod.

If you're wearing a 3/4 or ful face helmet, I prefer if you take it off. If you're wearing shades, take them off initially. It shows me that you are not trying to hide your eyes because you're drunk or high.

Now for the imprtant part. Keep your hands visible. Don't go making any fast moves to the inside of your jacket. If you're wearing a jacket and it covers your waistband, don't make any quick moves toward your back pocket to retrieve your wallet. You may find yourself dumped off your bike ery quickly. Either keep your hands on your lap or on your handle bars.

Here's another thing. When an officer walks up to you, don't say,"Why'd you pull me over" or "What did I do wrong"? Just gets us off on the wrong foot. The officer will tell you what you did wrong.

Be smart. Don't be a smart ass. That's almost a guarantee for you to get cited. There are officers out there that give attitude tickets.

Use common sense and don't try to BS us. We can read it a mile away.

Hope this helps, both of us.
