Number Plate Slogans

[squirrel_hunter]

I'm in the market for a new number plate for the TZR. I'm just going to get a standard size (whatever that is?) with standard lettering and a thin black boarder otherwise it might look a little plain.

If I were to get that on the high street it would end up with the suppliers name and telephone number. I don't really understand why, but I don't want that on mine. However without it I don't know if it will look odd? So I shall be going online to one of those "show plate" sites, does anyone have a recommendation?

But if I were to go for a slogan what could it be? I could go for the obvious make and model, or my name, or some form of wit... Over to you.

Legislation requires that the manufacturer of the plate be identified on it, it can be as little as their postcode, or as you say some regard it as an opportunity for free advertising.

Slogans are technically illegal, however some humorous ones that are not that prominent may get overlooked.....



ps: I know someone who had "Caution, if you can read this it's about to seize" on the back of his TZR race bike.....

"How's my driving? Phone 999"

I got my plate from ebay, loads of size options and borders/lettering etc. I went for a slightly smaller than usual with the normal black lettering. They also let you chose a slogan or phrase to have on the bottom. 'If in doubt flat out' 'my other toy has tits'

1 'upside' to a Halfords number palte is that their name & post code are a hologram & so don't show up unless you are looking at it in the right angle

I have "my other ride is your mum's a#$€" on my old bike and my car. Police seem to think its funny enough to ignore it. Lol.
Dont think you need to worry about the legality of a slogan.

I've got a yellow halfords plate which has a tiny yellow halfords logo on it. Its there but you wouldnt see it from a distance. Never had a bother with it either.

To each their own, I've never understood the attraction with being indiscriminately offensive.

I once saw a huge trike-riding meathead wandering around Ludlow farmers' market with 'F*CK YOU' written in big letters across the back of his jacket. No other words, no jokes, not even an exclamation mark.

The context made it all the more strange.
