    That's true. It is pretty sad that stuff like that isnt specified like it is for cars. It gives everyone a lot of room to exploit it or be creative, however you would call it.

    Well, I would disagree. If the law specified it, they would be bound to write some rule that a significant proportion of bikes could not easily comply with.

    The reality is that bikes have far fewer places for such things than cars, and the greatly variable characteristics of bike design mean that what will be practical on one model will be difficult on another.

    The law , quite sensibly, requires that it be "displayed" and readily visible. That should be enough. If the stickers can be espied with a few seconds looking I think no-one has a right to object.

    on my xs, it had a wof and rego mounted on a swing-out-able bit behind the plate, but it'd sit behind the plate unless you moved it.

    So i moved it to 'the side' of the bike, right by the motorbike

    Here is a square diagram:
    rego | | wof
    -------
    license

    I remember I came up to a cop stop, they were checking rego's it seemed, and they just asked "wheres your rego", and looked at it when i pointed in roughly the direction. Didn't have to specify it, just pointed to a side and tehy looked, and went "k, you can go".

    :P

    I know. I have serious considered one for the BMW. The only thing that stopped me was the problem of adapting it to the electric blade.

    good on ya boys! caught the rerun over the weekend. well done all of you! loved the bit at the end with that jerk missing another notch in his belt, lmfao.

    rego here is below the plate, and wof is bolted behind the plate. the bottom part of the wof holder is clearly visible if you look for it a tad.

    the really happy person is one who can enjoy the scenery when on a detour.
