Contact you state motorcycle reps. Some states have ABATE - American Bikers Aimed Toward Education, or some other type of motorcycle voice. What makes these stops illegal is that they do focus only on motorcycles and not the driving public. Any stops you may have experienced as a truck driver may have been through DOT which is different then the average cop doing the stops. Here in Indiana our ABATE has advised us to refuse to have our saddlebags and belongings searched and to contact out ABATE legal rep. GoFur looking at your picture there, I'd say you live in Texas and I know they have a motorcycle group like ABATE. I remember years ago when the helmit law was going to be law. I remember watching from outside of work hundreds of bikes making the final loop around the 610 loop before heading to Austin.
