Stopping without a foot down is a skill taught by the Motorcycle Safety Foundation. It's a useful balance exercise. That ticket should be fought in court.

No, we don't. We teach a ""pause and go", where you all but stop, not putting your feet down ( pause), ease out the clutch, and go. Yes, it's like a California stop, but its proper use is yields, stop-and-go traffic, and timing lights to hit the green while still moving.

Sorry, that could have been better explained in the course I took.
