£60 fine? And they want to add points to it too but that's not come in yet.

But they might start finding other points of concern with your bike had you not drawn attention to yourself in the first place...

£60 fine, if you get pulled enough for the small plate, the DVLA with withdraw your registration number and issue you with a Q plate.. not nice for resale value...

Why go so small 9 x 2 is asking for a pull, and then it gives them an excuse to do you for a your race can, dark visor etc etc etc

I asked on BCF (after someone posted in righteous indignation about being hassled by 'the pigs' for his small plate) what the point of them is and nobody could tell me. hovis says it's just for the looks.

I don't really see the point - a nice looking bike is still nice looking with a legal plate on it, why tempt fate?

That's a letterbox plate isn't ?

Almost certain tug followed by a fine, especially as you live in such a densely populated area.

I like to refer to them as c**k plates. You know the people that have them are.

(Mostly)

Roughly translated

I want a small plate so that I dont get zapped by a camera van or a fixed speed camera.

I can think of better ways to get rid of £60!

Braided lines
Heated grips
Curry and beers for two
Lots of miles on nice roads
Bouquet of flowers for the missus
Give it to charity
