just cut the edges of the plate" until its a third of the size get a black marker and make a new border, iv'e been pulled over several times and they never questioned me about it-- "make sure there is a little white left on the edges of the lettering

do you have a picture of what that looks like on your bike?

sixpackback has a tiny plate, don't think it's legal actually, but he never gets any grief about it..

I think anything from standard isn't allowed, but by how much, I've got no idea. Just do it and don't draw attention to yourself

i will post a pic tonight ,, rules are basically like this: if you are a dickhead on the road, a cop will pull you over, and slap a fine on ya ass, no matter what size the plate, i think and from experience, they have better things to do than to pull you over for a plate, as long as you can read it, Thats not to say though ,, if you get a "Dickhead cop" and we all know there's plenty of em" ( just like you get dickhead bikers)that has nothing better to do, and just doesnt like the look of you , because you are havin fun, He has an excuse,, however they are few and far between,

Anything other than a standard 'as issued' plate is illegal. Having said that, I ran a cut down plate on my cage for years without a problem. Apart from a "that's illegal" from a cop I knew.

Number plates????????????

[madboy]

Number plates????????????

You remember those, they used to be popular - but they're soooooooo last year.

[What?]

Technically, it ain't even legal to drill another mounting hole in a plate.
In the real world, if you get done for a modified plate, you were probably cruising for a much bigger fall...

[zeRax]

what kind of fine is involved if u get done for illegal plate anyway?

Now this is interesting, as I mentioned this to scumdog and dyna in passing as I got my bike as it is. They both said it was OK.

My plate is trimmed to the digits, with a very small amount of white around the digits. It measures 230mm x 65mm. I have passed many cops, none have pulled me over.

That's discretion in action. But then you meet Officer Arsehole.

another hole they don't have any to start with....

yeah ive been pulled by a cop and had a chat with him about this he said you must have the standard plate being replectorized and all that....

what vehicles need is a barcode plate or some crap i dunno that would make them small

and LOL bruce
