No. Don't display. I have my tax disc in my bike jacket.

Join the club. Had 2 stolen whilst I was in London. I now have a colour copy in the holder and I have clearly written on it that it is a copy and that the original is with the rider.

Isn't there tamperproof ones you can buy? Or make one yourself. Buy a normal one and put torx headed bolts in cos most dodgy geezers don't have them in their toolboxes, or attach it to the bike so its easily seen but have the fixing bolt only accessible from under the locking pillion seat.

Little Chris had his tax disc and holder fall off on track! Was quite funny. On a side note three blokes were found IN my car once, one with the tax disc in his pocket and they had damaged the wiring trying to jump start it. Old bill came and despite evidence including video they didn't even prosecute.

I keep mine in my wallet.

Well, at least that is a consensus of information

Was going to try the colour photocopy option but kind of got put off by the "fraud" statement?! Surely if you own the original it can't be fraud? I'd like to try to see them convict you in a court of 12 reasonable men and women.

Wow, epic fail, I am a boring stalkee . But maybe it is just because you can't see what interesting things I am doing in real life! Like, er, setting up a wireless network, and doing some press-ups...

You know it'll never give a decent signal there - you need to move it about a foot to the left.....
