This is going on for years north of Lima. Last year i travelled from Bolivia to Ecuador, and was stopped only twice, free of charge. North of Lima I was lucky, it was the end of a long weekend, and all those shiny police cars were parked in the opposite direction, trying to keep the heavy southbound traffic moving. Furthermore, I stayed behind a truck most of the time, to avoid getting hit by mad drivers, who often passed slower oncoming cars ignoring the motorcycle.
Going on sunday afternoon seems to be a way to avoid the corrupt police north of Lima.
