Funnily enough the cop is meant actually to 'observe you speeding' before getting his gun out. The speed detection equipment is only meant to be used to corroborate with his observation!
Back the Section 59. If you were actually popping a wheelie, I'd just think yourself lucky that you only got a 59er, and don't do it again for at least a year.
If you weren't wheelieing then get down to the cop shop and contest it.
