    yeh, but there wud be huge white patches at the end, you would probably be more likely to get away with cutting or bending these bits than with a standard plate

    It was a bullet proof defence that I may wish/need to use in the future, if everybody used this defence the plods would change the law, which is why they threw the case out of court because they knew that they were abouit to lose the case

    I had a cop threaten to ticket me for bending the plate around the rear fender.

    It's an old enduro trick to lessen the chance of slicing summat vital when flipping yer scoot...Mr Plod was not impressed.
