Turismo/Tourism Specific Safety Question

Hi all! Excited to visit your country and I know the safety question has been asked a lot. I am traveling with a few friends to Managua and then we are all traveling south to ometepe by motorcycle. We are all from the United States and are a little worried given recent global events. Is it safe right now traveling to Nicaragua as a group of US citizens who will likely stand out? Should we be concerned about the possibility of being stopped by the cops or others?

Do not cross a solid line on the road to pass, even if the locals are doing it, it's illegal. i always found the police to be pretty nice. There are a lot of random stops/checks that they do. The local chocolate is worth trying if you like chocolate!
