What's the moral of this story??
Don't stop for police? Don't ride wheelies? Not sure but makes interesting conversation

Moral is that you have to stick with the speed limit when driving on the rear wheel 
I love troopers in US and their cowboy way to get out of their car with the gun in the hand...

The poor little flower. Did the nasty policeman scare him?
He was riding like a twat and deserved to be pulled over. The cop pulled his gun cos the rider was backing up & could have fled the scene. OK he was out of uniform, but the identity issue was sorted out quickly enough.
Then he lied that he was recording the encounter (probably in the hope that the vid showing his previous squidlyness wouldn't be used in evidence).
Raiding his house & confiscating all his stuff was maybe a little OTT, but if they were looking for more evidence of dangerous riding I can understand it.
And he got off with a ticket!! Bikers over here in the UK have been sent to prison for those kind of shenanigans at that speed (126MPH). He has nothing to complain about at all.

I couldn't watch the vid cuz I'm on an iPad right now, but if it's the one i think it is, the guy on the bike is looking at 16 years in prison for breaking federal wiretapping laws by posting the video on YouTube. Go America!

16 years? Shiiiiiiite!  I didn't realise that! He's a twat, but not that much of one!

That Federal Wiretapping stuff, that's been brought in because of the Rodney King video going worldwide & showing everyone what bad coppers get up to when they think no-ones watching I'd guess?

that's the one! That cop didn't show a badge, didn't have any lights and after watching the entire video the guy was not going very fast after that one wheelie. Seems quite over the top to pull that gun. Moral to me is if you see an unidenified vehicle follow you, bail! They aren't friendly

The cops video their stops, why can't we ?
What's the cop got to hide ?
The only thing justified would be if he were undercover.
Then now ,why would an undercover cop expose himself for a squid stop.
I think he's jeleous

No one said anything about the stop being video recorded. Non consented audio recording is what the law is. You can video all day. Trooper had good instinctive form too. Btw, don't mind the uniformed cruiser behind the bike, that's known as backup. Guy put it on YouTube so mummy could see it. Classic.
