WGTN: To the LOSERS stealing L plates in the CBD

[Number One]

Yesterday I had an unfortunate time leading into my booking to sit my practical restricted test.

Some dick had knicked the L plate off the bike I was using to sit it on. Middle of Grey Street!

The owner of the bike said she had had 4 go missing (to date). Had even cable tied the things on previously - this time she had bolted it on!

What really gets up my nose is that the cheeky pricks had actually taken the time to unscrew the bolt in order to knick the plate....THEN they actually sat there and screwed it back up again...I guess they deserve some thanks for not just knicking off with the WOF label too? HA!

UMM HELLO?! The $2 shop has them for...you guessed it...$2!!! (AND you actually get two!) Go buy ya own ya cheapskate losers :spanking:

I mean really?! :Oi:

I WANT A LOSER PLATE TOO!!!!

Perhaps it's a bunch of dudes competing in how many L plates they can score.

[Number One]

Maybe Drew.

Well whatever their *motivation* should they feel the need to take a plate they can PM me for the spare I kept...some poor unsuspecting Learner rider will get in the shit on their way home one day OR will flush the 80 odd bucks paid for their test cos they can't get a replacement in time to sit their test.

Twats!

Heidi's got one here ya can have !!
After the ride home from some forgotten highway and getting stuck behind a traffic cop, in a line of traffic doing 70 km for about an hour, which she wouldn't overtake cause of the pathetic 70 km limit law !
Its gotta go ! Its just gotta go i tell ya !

[Number One]

If you happen to be plotting to take someones L plate and feel that hard up that you can't spring for one...even from the $2 shop...PLEASE contact either Myself or Sinful (what's Heidis handle again?) and we will happily GIVE you ours...hmmmmmmmkay?! :bash:

Dont worry Drew. We all know ;)

[sweetp]

It is friggen annoying! They must be keeping score i reakon.

[Swoop]

It could be worse...

Imaging riding a big bike and returning to it to find you now had an L plate attached!:crybaby::buggerd::(

[Jiminy]

You should have asked me, I have about 2,372 spare ones at last count. Btw everones, can you please stop bolting your L-plates to your bikes? It takes longer to unscrew and then I have to screw the bolts back? :lol:

Seriously, I'm glad you could find one on time for your test. It's such a loser thing to steal L-plates, can't believe anyone bothers doing it. Must be someone who keeps failing the (very hard) test and needs a revenge of some sort...

[DingoZ]

At least they are leaving the bike behind, and only taking the plate.....


Still it's a sucky thing to do.....

[McDuck]

File a police report every time it happens, then if you get pulled over it is quite believable.

that is actually a good idea. just paint it up and you're away laughing. then they would really be screwed

The problem is once you paint it it'll loose conductivity. You could wrap lines of copper or aluminium tape that are connected to the battery around a standard L plate which might work. Unfortunately, though thieves are stupid for being thieves, they are often clever enough to spot these things and they may disconnect the current from flowing and nick the plate. Though this could act as a deterrent seeming as the owner of this vehicle is mad and they may hunt the thief down.

or just scratch the surface slightly. or not paint the edges. i just liked the metal idea anyway
