Were you doing it for a long stretch or something? Ill occasionally pull both hands off for a few seconds but never had any issues like that. But yet I saw a guy on a gixxer one time riding down the street no handed for a while on a main road, to the point that he had to have some kind of throttle lock/cruise control based of the distance and sound, but there weren't any cops around to see it.

Hands still in the bars, just standing on the pegs. Stayed at the speed limit. I was probably at it for half a mile.

What was his justification for pulling you over? If standing on a bicycle isn't illegal, then it isn't on a motorcycle either.

He stated that my standing on my pegs was his reason for pulling me over.

There were 4 of us, all on DS bikes late at night.

All he did was ask us where we were headed and asked about our bikes, then told me to keep my butt on the seat. No written warning or citation. I figured it wasn't illegal, but I wasn't going to argue with him.
