Are number plate stealth accessories legal

[Quasievil]

Just wondering? like those spary on types and there is also a plastic cover , are these legal at all or are they outlawed?
your reply is appreciated.
I saw a cool product in the states last week might get them in if youre wondering why I ask

There's something about it being an offense to cover or obscure your numberplate.

When I lived in Tauranga, there were two guys there who I rode with one time (I think it was at band camp) who had hinged their numberplates and had a choke cable or similar with the knob under the side of the seat, which when operated tilted the plate up.

Do anything that prevents police/cameras from getting a good look at your number plate is illegal. So if the stuff works as advertised it's illegal, but if it does nothing it's legal.

i noticed in the states last week a lot of the bikes had their number plates above the hugger mounted from the underside of the guard, ive looked at my bike and this would be acheivable so may do it. you get the whole gp look uninterferred with by a shovel, as is the case on my bike at the moment

I'm just waiting on a guy at work to get his bike and then...
we are fitting a couple of solenoids he has under the seats.. bit of wiring and a switch somewhere

Yeah, I thought of that. If done right, it's a lot less noticeable than a cable and hinge.

Is that all you want to do, I feel very claustrophobic in a cage, have to ram all the others off the road and burn it. On a bike I feel much free(er??) and have the ability to piss off quickly if needs be.

Umm, I have a funny feeling that sounds really GAY!!

purely to assist with cleaning of the mudguard & underside of the number plate officer... ...i musta forgot to flip it back down!

Quasi yes it can be done to your bike,

have you seen it done here on a ZXR?, and if so who, might see how they did it

simple drill a couple of holes where you want to mount it make a bracket easy as pie, or just do it they way i have done mine, get a bracket made up to mount in the factory place

the guys in the states also don't have to worry about interactors and the such like we do here, ya need to find somwhere to mount those and also a numberplate light( ok i don't have one, but if you do some riding at night my need one of those)

I know how yours is,but what Im talking about is right back near the suspension unit, the plate sits above the front of the rear tyre.the plate is underneath the riders Bum almost, makes it hard to see from anywhere but directly behind. But yes it can be done with a bracket mount folded out of Aluminium, I will rivet to the bike and then get some small indicators to wire up, have to think a bit more about where to put the indicators tho cheers
