Personal plates on bikes

**Phreak** · 30th April 2010, 21:10

I only realized after I purchased my bike and got it home for the first time that it has a personal plate on it... Not sure what it means, but it's 'A1ACH'

Is funny the car or bike plate,on bike I couldn't add the message to it,but could with car plate,at the descretion of plates pleb.Asked for my plate with message "cancer sux" "chemo the bastard"was told bastard not applicable,but she agrred with my view on chemo.

IBTIT (I beat it)can go on car or bike,if i put it on car will need remaking and will see if message can be put on,maybe less pc in future.

Bastards did that a few years back .... any plate of 6 digits on a bike at the time couldnt be changed but from that point on only 5 digit plates allowed on bikes
Apparently it's a database issue at LTSA...bikes with 6 plate digits fuck the system coz they show as cars LMFAO (wonder how many ACC crash stats that was screwing up...77$ and all???)

when did bikes have 6 digits. ?????

ya NOT getting confused with six fingered persons from balclutha

$800! That's bloody dear now!! I got mine ages ago when I was looking at building a car. Still haven't built the car so no plate printed. I would get it printed to go on the bike but it's 6 digits. Bloody stupid bike plate rule. Would be cool on a bike.. "PL4YTM"

See, I always thought this was a real tight ass thing to do. A 3 letter, 3 number combo is heaps cheaper then "full" personalised. I always thought people brought beemers to show off their money. Then they skimp on the plate? You wouldn't get an Audi driver doing that.

haha

Nope.
Originally custom plates of 6 digits COULD be placed on bikes, but it was a few years after they intoroduced custom plates the issue in the database was discovered where bikes showed as cars if a 6 digit plate was assigned
Been 5 digits only since then.
