Only as said, if a rozzer want's to note down your number they will do so regardless of what it is. It's more that it's easier for members of the public to remember it, like MBK said.

Although it's a good number. SVS is no easier for the public to remember than anything else, but those in the know will appreciate it.

Suppose, neither me nor my pal count as a real member of the public though, got the rozzer brain!

I agree with the public not really noticing SVS though, they won't realise its personalised.

I don't think Rob is going to come round your house and steal your bike and register it in his name just because you sent him the V5 & MOT.
But then maybe I'm just naive.

might be best to put an extra chain on it

I love my plate, it looks the bollox, its totally personnal, it has character and history (personnal), I waited 6 hours on the phone redial to get it the day the D's came out, and I would never get rid of it.

If your riding normally on the road and having your fun when the roads are clear, there is nothing to worry about. Even put it on my Bandit for a year or two when it came off the corsa

Dad has two private plates, personnal on his car, Tornado LE specific one on his LE.
I have one, its just cool.
Missis has one, its even cooler than mine, been offered over £10k for it so far, but its the reserve kitty fund.

They are pimp, all the others are jealous

PS, for £10, thats a fooking steal!!!!!!!!! You can sell it for probably about £500+ to a noob on their SV with a bit of cash to hand.

I remember the old Corsa plates going for £1000+ (C2RSA, C3RSA, C4RSA, C5RSA, although C8RSA was on a ferrari for obvious reasons, then we had C10RSA etc, and M900RSA (My Corsa), we were all so pimp).

I check the sites regularly. I'm waiting for a near perfect plate. With an unusual surname, I don't think it will be too steep! Even my first name is spelt unusually!
