Decided to get a smaller number plate fro the bike, now its on I'm not sure whether its just pointless..



Also fitted my side lights to get it legal. Hidden in the ram air pipes..

I've had illegal plates on all my bikes but never anything as small. Never had hassle but I think they might see that size as taking the piss a bit.

Here it is sitting beside the one I took off which is a 7x5, standard is 9x7.

I think it looks pretty naff tbh. Nothing wrong with a slightly cut down plate with normal font.

Where did you get that plate made up, The only ones i can find are the ones where it is printed onto a film off a printer then stuck to yellow plastic. Prefer this type (If you know what i mean )

I have a small plate on my bike, but I don't think it takes the piss too much.

Not long and single lines are asking for a tug. Might have got away with it a few years ago but they're clamping down hard now on plates. I'd stick with a 7x5. I had no probs for 8 years or so running that size. I ran a small single line plate for 5 weeks and got stopped

I have a 7x5 with no border etc, so it doesn't look too bad tbh.

All depends on the coppers really. Most have nothing better to do than prowl the Sunday roads picking on people like you. Fuck em mate, it looks cool
