DL, insurance card, and Reg all in my wallet. Using a storage area under the seat makes the  [leo] a bit wary, they aren't sure what else you are gonna pull out of there. Not anything worng with keeping it there but just be aware that they are (or should be) watching very intenetly while you are getting your stuff out.

Other tip: If pulled over get off the bike and remove your helmet. Then put helmet on the ground or on bike, it's a weapon. If your gonna reach in your jacket for your wallet or paperwork, wait until asked, tell them where it is, and then do it. Don't start going into your jacket while they are getting out of the car or off their bike.

god bless australia.

all you need is your licence! well there is a rego sticker too but it is stuck to the bike. and all cop cars have the info on their computer, so they know all about you as soon as the camera picks up your plate.

i had one copper check my licence when i got pulled over at midnight on his computer and it turned out my drivers licence and riders licence weren't synchronised... DAMN INCOMPETENT RTA! $400 fine.... wrote a letter and got off /woot/

Oddly enough I had to pull them out from under my sargent seat this evening after a little run in with  [leo]

The  [leo] was very friendly but I was sure to mention to him exactly what I was doing, removing the seat, and why I was doing it, to get the insurance and registration papers.

i thought the stickers on our plates were for registration.  ???

I carry my insurance and ownership tucked inside my helmet ... [popcorn]

.... I thought all motorcycle riders did that! 

Its always with you, dry and accessable; my paperwork is carefully folded and tucked in the lower left back where it doesnt effect the air circulation & venting.

Ziplock-type bag holds registration and insurance info in my jacket pocket.
Since I never ride without my jacket, I always have it.
