Why do people hide their numberplates?

I don't think it makes sense because hundreds of people see numberplates on the road... |

I know that anyone (with criminal intentions) who see's your bike & plate in 'your area' can do the same thing but thats not a great deal of people compared to a forum where anyone from across the world can view your photo & plate. Just personal preference and what people feel comfty with I suppose |

Your supposed to supply the V5 when you get plates made up now to prove that you own the vehicle the number relates to.
Theres still one or 2 places round these parts that will make them without it though. |
