    Will front plates look good on your bikes?
    Front numberplates have been proposed as a solution for this in both Victoria and NSW. If it's introduced in Victoria it will happen here.

    Makes sense eh? Think of all the extra revenue that could be generated at no extra expense to LTSA. This extra revenue generating potential will be funded by us modding our bikes with front plates or similar.

    Make the most of whinging about front plates now because once they are imposed on us you will be labeled as part of the reason for its imposition.

    front plates have been here before! up until the early 70s. they approached the idea again in the late 80s early 90s. so it wont be any big surprise if they do reinstate them again

    could just roll up to your local LTSA & have them scribe the number across the fairing with a big black magic marker

    It's just one of those days, where you don't wanna wake up,
    everything is fucked, everybody sucks,
    You don't really know why but you wanna justify ripping someone's head off

    True true.

    Surely any number plate on the front would increase wind resistance, and would need to be rounded to meet the shape of the bikes nose.

    Wouldn't that make it unreadable anyway?

    "The impetus for front number plates appears to be driven by authoritarian blame or revenue considerations and hurt feelings resulting from photographs showing disrespect. MORE"

    The bastards would make it the size of a barn door - and not care about any cooling or aerodynamic issues
    The best way to forget all your troubles is to wear tight underpants.

    You can spot those van cams a mile away, and every time I go past I look inside and theres noone home. There was one in particular I took the same road back and I went slowly past and there really was no one around. (this was near Rotovegas) Just that evil little camera on it's tripod in the boot.
