a hinge from the hardware store @ 50¢, then sell it on for $15.. not a bad profit

ummm, it's sitting on top of the hugger. The hugger moves up and down with the wheel/swingarm. It'd bash the crap out of the underside of the seat as it is.

Sure it looks facy now but as soon as you wack a standard CBR thou zorst on it I doubt ot will fit there.

The zorst is fitted mate, its a pretty trick one though with the outlet only just poking out through the underside.. its got some type of aftermarket undertail cowl on it too to suit the pipe.

Why not? Is the rego plate even in a WOF? Somehow I doubt it as you need a WOF before you can get a Reg. And also why would it not be? It is visible from the rear, more so than the people with towbars obscuring their plates, sure the flippy thing would kill it though.

I'd say it was someone slightly less intelligent than a large corporate. Probably calls his mum aunty or something.

Personally would not use screws, something like rivets would be nearly flush with the bottom.

Yes. For one, the plate number appears on the WOF sticker.

Adhesive backed velcro was $2.49 at The Warehouse. Perfect for WOFs. Perfect for clearance issues.

Actually no, a motor vehicle can have a wof without a rego. Just stroll onto any car yard and look at the wof sticker on freshly imported vehicles, the wof inspector will put the chassis number where they normally put the rego. In fact every imported vehicle gets a wof before it can be registered, and if this expires before the vehicle gets rego'ed a normal wof shop can issue a new wof.
