7x5 on the FZ1.

Been pulled over and fined £30 for a noisy exhaust and at the same time told to change the plate otherwise next time it will be a find for that to.

Big plates are too....... Big.

I've recently got a new standard plate as the old 7x5 was a bit worse for wear. I also have a tail tidy but it fits on ok and is at a bit of an angle. TBH you don't see the plate when you are riding so who cares if it looks too big.

I've had a 7x5 plate on the bike of my SV for the past couple of months and haven't had any problems so far.

Standard plate, but it has no markings other than my reg. Not sure if that is legal or not to be honest.

Needs a standards marking .
But its so small I doubt anyone looks for it.

Is there points involved if the plate and digits/letters are small?

£60 fine

Another 7x5 here too. Been on for 18 months and no interest from the police so far......
