numberplates ate all the same, just differant sizes

a tailtidy is a metal bracket that you fix to the back of your bike to fit the numberplate to, which tidys up the rear end,
you rrobably need an undertray as well

theres another guy on ebay, his ebay shop is Rory's Plates" I've bought a few from him turnaround and IIRC £11.99 delivered...

Althought I've been hearing that alot of the show plate providers are being shutdown due to a clampdown on dodgy plates. Not sure how true this is though.

9 x 7 is the legal size. Next size down is 8 x 6 then you can get a 7 x 5 as well.

Depends how much you want to avoid a conversation with a policeman about how small your plate is. Anything that isnt 9 x 7 is not legal and you may well get pulled over for it.

We've got 7 x 5 plates on our bikes and never had a spot of bother, IMHO thats what I'd go for, just stay away from single line plates as thats asking for trouble IMHO.

Edit - Looks like a curvey SV in your avatar, this is what the 7 x 5 plate looked like on mine
