You sir have a very good case and could well defeat a court prosecution before it ever gets there, but you need to do a lot of home work before fighting.

First off you need to identify that there is indeed traffic sensors under the road, ask your council, next fid out what weight class of vehicle will be sufficient to change them. Provided that you can gather eveidence that a bike is not sufficient (you could do this by videoing the lights at night with your bike there) you should be able to argue that the lights were inoperative and therefore you were legitimate in your qpproach of treating it as a stop sign.

Next the speeding, now evidence

Next the dangerous driving, produce a copy of Roadcraft, the police motorcyclist handbook and highhlight the positioning section and then pose the question that if Roadcraft is dangerous riding then how come it is the foundation of Police skills

You have a lot of work to do but do this and plead not guilty, submitting a defense statement attesting all the evidence and you should have a good chance
